The
environment is the immediate surrounding of an organism. As such, its
destruction means the loss of the existence of the organism.
Therefore, as humans, we need to carefully sit and evaluate the way
in which we utilize and use the environment, bearing in mind that we
are dependent on it for life. As it’s evident, there is a great
need to ensure that the environment is well preserved. The advantages
of having healthy environment are more than we can ever imagine.
To
achieve environmental prosperity, there have been a lot necessary
measures that have been taken to ensure that the goal is achieved.
One of these measures is through the monitoring from non-profit
organizations such as the Relief
India Trust. Organizations
such as this are well invested in goals such as environmental
protection. There are various ways in which they go about the whole
process:
Energy
control
One
the major pollutant in the world is the use of unclean energy. This
is due to the frequent and the unending need for energy to run major
things such as factories, cars and power grids. Non-profit
organizations in this section try to convince most unclean users to
adopt greener ways of energy. The
Relief India Trust
is highly engrossed in nationwide campaigns that convince people to
take up alternative energy options. The organization is involved in
lobbying for support for formation of green energy laws. The use of
green energy gives the earth a better chance of prosperity by
reducing the amount of pollution that is let out thus lessened global
warming effect.
In
other cases that also help in reducing pollution from energy, the
organizations provide advice on ways that help reduce the amount of
energy used. Some of the advices include;
-
Using public transport instead of people using individual cars that leads to increased pollution.
-
The use of biogas to cook and of electricity to avoid use of natural gas.
-
The adoption of electric cars instead of the use of petroleum driven cars.
-
Investment in hydroelectric power production instead of nuclear power plant construction.
Waste
control
Waste
disposal is one the most common pollutants of the environment. The
careless discard of waste not only destroys the aesthetic value of a
place, but also may lead to pollution of other resources such as air
and water. The unbearable odor from dumpsite is a big air pollutant
as are the rotting processes risky as they might pollute water
systems.
Another
waste disposal act that is threatening to the environment is the
unsafe dumping of nuclear waste by companies that deal with such
material. The waste can lead to untold deaths in case there is
leakage into basic water supply systems.
With
all the above environment and human life threats, there is surely a
great need to conserve the environment. With non-profit environmental
organizations there to help out, there is hope. These organizations
are not only invested in ensuring garbage control, but also they are
vital in forcing companies to handle their nuclear waste in the
required manner.
