Ecosystem based adaptation

 Today, the climate change and environmental issues are the important topic of discussion among the conversationalist. The governments are coming with different different policies, organizations are inventing new ideas to cope up with these challenges. Everyday new environmental rules and laws are being formulated.  In this scenario "The Ecosystem based adaptation" is the best way to fight the challenges of global environment problems.

It is like providing the solution in natural and ecological way. For example instead of building reservoir for checking flood or building structure to prevent coastal areas from being submerged into the seas. The ecosystem based adaptation provides a more cheaper way to solve the problem, which totally depend upon sustainable development of ecology. Its principle based upon proper forestation and sustainable management of natural resources such as water, trees and agricultural land. It includes the afforestation strategy in all types of human habitat which will decrease the atmospheric temperature and purify the air through the moisture released by the leaves. Apart from this It will also results in increasing the water table in the earth surface. Similarly the afforestation in coastal areas will checks the soil erosion by acting as buffer system. Trees will degrade the waves which causes the erosion in  coastal areas and which results the submersion of coasts into the water. Apart form these as we know that how mangrove forest  prevents the the land areas from storm and devastating cyclonic winds. The afforestation policies in the coastal areas will also act in the same way. Apart from afforestation the natural lake  in human habitat will also have tremendous impact on the storage of ground water. 

This little changes will also have a very positive effect on the urban wild life. The birds which are extincting due to degradation of their natural habitat, will get a positive environment within the human habitat to survive. So in this way the basic of the ecosystem based upon the concept of adaptation of oneself  as per the natural ecosystem where there is no boundary between urban wild life and human habitat. It is a solution to which highlights the importance of coming close and get linked to the nature.

Deforestation: a factor for zoonotic diseases

  Video link In a documentary by UNEP (link given above) reveals the relation between how deforestation is related to disease which is related to zoonotic animals such as bats, rats etc. With drastic increasing the supply and demand chain, industries are putting themselves too far in grabbing more and more lands to built industries. This results in an adverse impact on the forest lands, which is vanishing day by day. With increasing deforestations the zoonotic animals are coming closer to the human environments, which is effecting the heath of humans and domestic animas such as cats and dogs. The growing zoonotic disease such as Ebola, Covid 19 are becoming common. Such encounter of parasites with humans is expected to increase in future if the process of sustainable development is not employed by industrial units. As a consumer, it is also duty of every person to maximum rely on local markets for fulfilling their daily needs. It will decrease the gap of supply and demand which will br

Natural regeneration: a step towards restoring the forest cover

  Video link In a video(link given at the top) published in world economic forum highlights how Natural regeneration could be an effective idea to restore the forest cover. It is based upon the principle of leave the nature in its own condition so that it grows naturally and heals by itself. I does not means taking no action but instead highlights on planting more native trees in the forests.These should be no human interference in the forest cover for building made made structures. It will promote the growth of ecology and biodiversity of the nature. Again, by following this approach it is expected that it will observe 10% of annual carbon dioxide emission of  UK and quarter of  green house gas worldwide.

A road side bus

A road side bus  One day, while surfing in the countryside of a town, suddenly I found a very old bus at the side of the road in terrible condition. A bus by which at some point in time have lots of travel stories—a bus by which thousands and thousands of travelers found their way of journey and reached the destination. But one day, the trip was the last, and indeed, the bus got a fatal mishap. From then on, it is only describing its glorious past and travel history to the passers-by standing on the one side of the road. Now it is counting its last days. The story of life is also similar to the bus.
