Rendezvous with the Wild

I was a kid, when i first heard that the biggest threat to all other races is the human race and the greatest advantage too! But we humans have a problem with ourselfs, which is to think about only us, to care about the benefits only we can have, to do good to others only if we are too at good equally or maybe sometimes at power. They say it right, that we would be the biggest cause why this world comes to an end. "They" i used the word there, you people might be wondering whom am i talking about. No, none of our selfish beings, its the other races, the fauna, screaming out loud everyday to stop with our cruel deads, to stop bringing this world, this beautiful creation closer to its end with every passing day. No one knows how this beautiful creation came into begining, and yet we talk about it, assume evry minute possible thing that would have happened to have this world the way it is at present, but no one ever talks about how it is moving closer to it's cesation with every passing day. Why? Not because people dont like talking themselves to their or anyones end to existence, but because people, those very same people who remark at the big bang theory to have this tale originated cannot have themselves in picture with their hand in its culmination.

This post well, is not about just the wildlife we are posing a great threat to, though it is an issue rather larger and this thing i am talking about is another of its root. The pace at which we are moving towards development today would fetch us nothing but stimulate desolation. In 6th grade i first read about deforestation, and it of being an issue of utter disgrace to all human kind. Though i came across something called "AFFORESTATION" at the same time but how many times have i heard of it since then as compared to the latter!? Hardly, i would answer! Here neither am i asking someone to plant trees nor am i trying to convey you all to go through again what we read when we were kids. No! But if u vision yourselfs a bit farther, say some years from now, some 10x years, what would we have in our world? new buildings breaking world record in being the tallest made ever everyday.Bridges,dams,river channels being made the longest one after another, ahh!, sorry, there wont be any water left so this point wont fit the picture.Anyways, what else, mines? I dont think so, by then we would go so poor in these ores,veins,jewels and crystals that mines are way too hard to think of. Oil spills then, am afraid that too wont excist till that time. That means what, no cars to run on fuel, not atleast on any lubricant. No hydro or thermal powerplants working no more. We people may get a way out of this by some sort but where would we all end up? Buildings all around us? No more green trees, no more vegetables and fruits, not natural ones atleast. No more animals and birds chirpping and howling. Whom would we hunt then n fulfill our hunger and thirst? Paper companies these days produce a large amount of paper, no doubt fulfilling need of all those in need. And it aint an easy job to do that! no, it aint, not at all, to sweep down the whole jungle off its area, all trees! Bukit Tigapuluh, one of the world top 20 largest forests and wildlife habitat, one of the priority landscapes globally for the survival of the tigers is being systematically targeted for pulp production by one of the world's largest paper suppliers. This is in breach of the company's claims that it doesn't target high quality and high conservation value forest for clearing and that its carbon footprint is close to neutral. This takes place when the paper can be and should be manufactured on self-fell off trees only but here whole parts of the forest are being swipped off. The animal habitat getting off the head of the wildlife there, they run for shelter and food and end up in close encounters with local tribes,which result in nothing but loss of lives of both human and wild. Investigation found that in the last six years, the company in this landscape alone contributed to loss of about 60,000 hectares of high carbon and high conservation value forest without appropriate professional assessments.

Where are we going with all this i just dont seem to understand. Where and till when would our eco-sytem have to compensate on our demands and needs? We get into the very shelter of the wild and not only deprive them off their places but kill them mercilesly. As we progress, our needs and wants increase and as the needs increase, the more we harm our natural surroundings and the more we end up closer to extinction, ours, the othr races's, the flora-fauna and evrything. There has been increasing heat in summers, year by year as a result of global warming and with the glaciers and snow montains melting down,reulting into a lot more colder winters evry year followed by.

"I was a kid, when i first heard that the biggest threat to all other races is the human race and the greatest advantage too, now dont know about the advantage but can figure out why did they mark us out as the biggest threat!.The animals maybe beings at less power to make us understand what they feel, but for sure are not beings as dumb as us to participate in this meaningless race to extinction." This New Year's, i for sure would resolve to have some change, if nothing else then by planting a tree is the least i could do for us instead to trying to celebrate a step closer to the grave. What do you intend to do?
