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.

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.

Work from home vs. work from office

Me doing Work from home and simultaneously enjoying the nature. Now a days, we are working on generally two modes. Either our official or academic work are in WFH (work from home) mode or WFO (work from office) mode. When Covid-19 started spreading last year in January 2020 and all the restrictions were implemented by the government. Suddenly, all the offices started shutting down. Then, whole economy came on WFH platform. At the beginning, everyone faced little difficulty but then WFH became a better option for work. Now a days, when the restrictions is being lifted up and we are going to the normal condition with decreasing spread of Covid disease, again the working culture is returning back in offline mode i.e. WFO mode. Today many of the people are reluctant to return on WFO mode because of various reasons. In contrast, many people are happy with backing WFO mode. Still schools, colleges are working with 50 percent capability with both WFH and WFO options. So at present, we are in ...

My struggle with hydrophobia and journey to learn swimming

  A boat at the bank of a river I can still remember my childhood days when I was afraid of water because I didn't know how to swim.  The fear of water was so much deep into my mind that I often observed myself drowning in water in a horrible nightmare. I have always wanted to learn to swim so that I could get rid of this hydrophobia. Even there are instances when this panic grew more in mind. For example, I remember traveling on a ferry in the holy river Ganga to go to a pilgrimage site with my parents in my childhood days. Once, there was a time when we could not see a sign of land even to the horizon range. And we were surrounded by water from all directions. I was terrified of this view and wanted to reach any bank of the river immediately. Anyway, we reached our destination safely and enjoyed the holiday a lot. Again, there are very similar instances, when my parents went on some beach to enjoy holidays but I always used to avoid going deep into the waves because of the f...
