Earth will not just be left to mourn

The past year has been a very turbulent year with the view of economy, politics and nature. Britain came out of the European Union, Donald Trump was elected as the new President of the United States, and the whole world was shocked by irregular weather and uneven rainfall, the poor house and the farm were devastated. These things all seem to be good for the past, but the way our goals are changing, the future is going to get worse. This picture of the past year is showing that some big changes are needed now, so that our future is different, better and safer.





This picture is also indicative of the fact that in the way we are operating our economy, there is something wrong in it, because there is a lot of dissatisfaction in the society, and even the rich sections are not untouched by it. One meaning of this picture is that existing economic development is severely affecting our climate, and consequently, wind, water, land and food are becoming poisonous. The risk of global warming has increased. Actually, we have adopted a model of development, which promotes autocratic consumerism. It is forgetting the poor, not even in the interests of the rich themselves. Walking on the Western model of India and China, which continue towards the direction of development, is not free from danger. Natural resources are heavily exploited in this model. It is true that the industrialized countries of the world have now learned how to reduce the adverse effects of becoming rich. But they have not been able to find the solution for these adverse effects. Organic emissions produced in industrialized and large countries have hurt the climate of the whole world. The seasonal change has caused a crisis of existence in front of millions of people. That is, the western countries are not only facing the difficulties of their own but also imposing it on all the other countries which are not as capable enough to compete with them. In such a case, the question arises, should the poor countries still adopt this model? However, there is a problem that we have not searched any alternative way so far. It is said that this competition of becoming rich is only development.On the occasion of this World Earth Day, we have to look at the three different developments, which are very deeply interwoven. First, agree on the Paris Agreement. It became a common opinion in December 2015. But our (India / the southern part of the world) objection has been that the Paris Agreement is weak, as well as unbalanced, and the hope of its success is very low. We also believe that the Paris Convention has not been able to unite the whole world, it does not play an effective role in generating mass wars against climate change. The second event, to increase the risk from acute and peculiar changes in the weather. And third is 'poisonous' due to 'economic development'. It has its impact on our other cities like Delhi, which we have seen as gasping for the clean air. The way in which Donald Trumpt came to power or liberal and secular democracy, it is a clear indication that the 'successful' economic We are supporters of the development model, anger against people is growing. We must understand that globalization has increased inequality too. This is the root of the current problem, and at the center of the current debate of climate change. It is clear that the poor people will have to improve their condition. It is true that India, China and its neighboring countries do not have much choice but they can reinforce the wheel of development. Industrial countries have gone through a rapid phase of development. Even if their per capita income is much higher than the per capita income of the current southern countries (Asian countries like India and China), but their development will be considered as superficial. The problem is that Southern countries are also giving special attention to this development model. In other words, to invest as much capital as possible and to have more degradation of society; Or creating more and more resources and making as much pollution. If the countries of the southern world can achieve equitable and sustainable development. Deepening the roots of sustainable development, that is, democracy. This is not a technical issue, but it is a matter related to the political structure, which gives strength to the natural resources of the common people, especially the people of climate change. The compulsory condition of this sustainable development is to include local people in the work of environment management. It is not wrong that after the coronation of Donald Trump, challenges have become more complicated. It is not a secret that the trumph leave the environmental interests. There is no doubt that under his leadership, America will get more coal, more electricity will be installed and everybody will do the work which is helpful in increasing the production. Obviously, this will increase the greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, coming of a trump is not less than any bad news for environmentalists. But this is not a new thing in the country and the world. The United States has always changed the rules according to its facility, from Rio to Paris, the agreements have given a new look to their interests. So this is not the time to bend ahead with the challenges but rather to collide with it. There is only one known planet called the Earth in the universe, which has life and now here the deadly effect of global warming is clearly visible and globally. That is why it is not reasonable that we are still holding hands on our hands.
