Dyes

Colours.... pleasing, attractive, soothing...adding up to life!!! 
Colours have a very integral part to play in every individuals life, and a life without  colours would be equal to living a life in DARK... 

Clothes in Red, blue, yellow, green....and so on.. have a great influence in deciding the Appearance of people. We become very choosy when it comes to our looks, when its the Time to define our STYLE!!! But while getting so specific on colours has anyone ever tried figuring out the fact behind DYING? 

Dying is a process carried out to create the coloured look to the cloth, and while doing so dyes are used. These dyes often contain heavy metals and harmful elements which contribute to the "COLOURING" effect. Till the dying process, all is fine....But wat comes next is Really DISTURBING!!! 

Once the dying process is done, the Major step following is tbe disposal of the Dyes. They are disposed in Water environments as they (sometimes) get dissolved easily. Water disposal is easier but it has various NEGATIVE effects on the surrounding. 

Water gets highly contaminated with these dyes and temperature of the water bodies rise thus making it very uncomfortable for the water species to survive. Massive migrations take place due to this finally causing a loss in the general bio- diversity of the area. Many metals used in dyes have the capacity of Bio-Magnification, where the metals increae in quantity when entered a life form. A great proportion of the world shares a cuisine of aquatic animals....Thus directly or indirectly OUR food-chain is affected. 

The quality of water is dwendling day by day due to these malpractices and many being unaware are getting adversely affected!!! 

Its now high time that we responsd to these damages that are being done by the us merely for our personal benefits. The water animals are decreasing at an alarming rate. The water environment is being disturbed contiuously... 

It is not suggestible that we stop the dying processes ans start living a Retro- black and white life, But its necessary that we make some contribution in carrying out proper treatment of the dye industry effluents!!! 

The picture clicked is a very RECENT flick which shows that even after having discovered many ways of waste treatment, We, The Humans continue with our irresponsible Behaviour. 

Effluent treatment is a bit costly process, But i guess where we have gained so much from Mother Earth.... money becomes a very valueless when it comes to EARTH's SAFETY................. 

Water Clogging...

Rainy season has arrived... beautiful season... its the time when trees get more greener, animals appear to be more happier. The rich aroma of wet soil, soothing cool breeze, frog with its funny sounds... just sets the human mind in a relaxed mood...
But with the soothing effects also come the adverse effects... adverse effects created by humans.



Every year as the pouring of water from the skies increase the water left with no path to exit starts clogging. Clogging has now become a major problem as it brings in a bunch of other problems with it. Clogged waters facilitate disease spread thus making the entire society unhealthy. Water clogs the roads and railways affecting the transport system. It not only spreads diseases but gets mixed up with the existing water storages thus contaminating them. Certain areas which may be having broken pipelines make a perfect gateway for the contaminated stagnant waters to enter the water supply.

What causes the basic clogging of these waters???

Every year a huge fraction of garbage which includes the plastics wastes, in been dumped into the sewage systems by people. This careless behaviour finally results in what we see every year. water clogs upset the mood ans the real essence of season is lost somewhere deep in these mishaps.

Its indeed the responsibility of the GOVERNMENT to get the sewage systems cleaned before the showers, but is it not OUR responsibility to keep the sewage system clean by not dumping plastics wastes in it??

The responsibility to keep the environment clean is ours and we must give our contribution to help it grow more stringer and cleaner....So that we have a ENVIRONMENT in our future rather than just having the word 'ENVIRONMENT'.

Tree Plantation - helping hand.

Planting trees is a great effort done towards the environment. It helps the environment to go greener, better n more pure. But how many of us do really do things like plantation for the betterment of the environment?

Mother nature has cared for us a lot and in return we have just given it DESTRUCTION for our blind effort to reach maximum development. Deforestation, pollution to the AIR, WATER SOIL has become a common thing in all places. Very soon will a time arrive when the colour of earth will turn to BLACK and GREY from BLUE and GREEN.

Plantation is done by nature in many ways. We, the humans are supposed to be the most intelligent creations of god, but still do we act accordingly?

Animals living in the jungle accidently bring about many plantations giving rise to numerous trees. Squirrels, the medium sized rodents, have nuts as their food as they cannot survive on cellulose food sources such as PLANTS. Inorder to save their food, many a times, these squirrels hide in their food underground, and sometimes forget about it which finally results in growth of a new plant. So accidently they plant trees. Its not only the case with squirrels, but also some birds that line on fruits, disperse the seeds of the fruits in the area around while consuming it. May all these activities be accidental, but still these activities move in a direction beneficial for the environment. Then why we, the social intelligent animals do activities beneficial for the mother earth?

We being so civilised, don’t need accidents to carry out such activities. Instead we can carry out ECO-FRIENDLY things to bring about a change in the present scenario that makes the conditions of mother earth better. Planting trees is not just enough, taking care for them is equally important. And by doing so we will not only make MOTHER EARTH greener but make it a place worth living in the FUTURE……

Fishes - aquatic life in danger......

Over the years the demand for SEA food has risen to a great extent, as the population has risen. This has finally led to an increase in fishing activities thus depleting the fishes in high amounts. Our activities have not only caused problems as over-fishing but they have also led to the increase in water temperatures, eutrophication which basically occurs due to the increased introduction of chemicals into the water environment. Eutrophication causes the PHYTOPLANTONS to grow and accumulate on the water surface thus blocking the light entering and it also depletes the oxygen content in the water body. 

                                      

Due to the release of chemicals the water temperature has increased thus making the environment warmer and unsuitable for the aquatic animals to live in. Many dye industries, chemical industries dump in their untreated effluents in the water bodies. The most recent example is the GANESH VISARJAN program that was carried out @ sea interfaces like JUHU, etc. Ganesha idols being made of POP, when immersed in water release great amounts of heat thus heating up the aquatic environment. This increased heat is intolerable to the aquatic animals and they finally start migrating towards the interiors of the water bodies.(instead of POP idols normal eco friendly mud idols can be used).

 

Not only this but recently two major OIL-SPILLS were in newspapers, people all over were busy discussing about the grand ships that were stationed @ the beach but no one was considerate enough to find out the damage done to the aquatic life. Everywhere there were discussion about the no. of days for which the sea food is to be avoided due to the spills, but no one discussed about the threat caused to the aquatic animals.

Fishes are a rich source for proteins and there r many other products made from these fishes, and with the increasing demand and increasing population load the fishing activity too has extended to a proportion unsafe for the aquatic life.

Its now time that we release that r selfish activities are not only risking r future in the dark but also is pulling other innocent creatures into it, with this consumption speed very soon there will be a time when AQUATIC LIFE WILL BE A CHAPTER IN HISTORY BOOKS…….

Rain Water Harvesting

When it rains it feels very pleasing to some whereas for some its just a non-sense, but whatever it is all need water for their SURVIVAL n daily cores. When it rains some think of getting wet n enjoying the rain, some think of getting themselves a shelter to refrain but is there anyone who just gives RAIN WATER HARVESTING a thought????????

At times of heat these poor little birds die off due to excessive heat. How many of us have actually tried giving them WATER BOWLS???? Water shortage problem are not only with birds but also with animals. Due to the human activities the temp. all along has risen to such a great extent that now interiors of many jungles dry out causing great water crisis in these areas. Many of the migrating animals are not able to complete their journeys just due to the vast stretch dry lands, eventually die in their journeys.

Water harvesting projects are not actually going to solve 100% water related problems but it will atleast make us draw less water from water bodies, so that it can remain a resource for all. Others living out there.

Water harvesting projects can be carried out in places like open gardens, building terrace, etc…

Rain water that we receive is very pure and can be used for all our daily chores. If not that it can be atleast stored and used for watering plants throughout the year so that they don’t face dry seasons.

Its now important that we start thinking for the ENVIRONMENT in every little act of our’s so that we are able to PRESERVE it n its beauty for the FUTURE……

Delicious fishes...but over consumption is leading to PENGUIN starvation.

Well fishes are one of the most favorite foods for many....fish curries, fish fry..etc...Sounds delicious...rite??
But have u ever wondered how would it be if you would have to live without food for several days and finally die off starvation??


That what exactly is happening with the PENGUINS....

Due to the increasing demand for fish food and products, the trawlers are entering deep in the sea and capturing the maximum available to them. This finally causes depletion in the fish population and hence there is less food left for the creatures who completely depend on this fish for their survival.

The penguins from all over are decreasing in numbers just due to starvation.
Do we have the rite to take away their food just for our TASTE???
The penguins require more food to survive and due to over fishing the food available to these poor creatures is depleted to a great extent.........
The PENGUIN is not only compromising with its food but also with the space available to it..
GLOBAL WARMING has led to a massive increase in temperatures all around which have finally caused the ice caps to melt....hence with these melting ice caps the space available to them is also decreasing....
We, the humans, have not only RISKED OUR FUTURE BUT HAVE ALSO PULLED THE FUTURE OF INNOCENT CREATURES, SHARING THIS PLANET WITH US, INTO DARK.

but no need to worry....coz hurray....soon we will have the credit of making 1 more surving species an EXTINCT species......

We need comfort but its time that v also care for the comfort of others....lets try to bring down the temperatures and make this earth worth living again.............

Water Shortage........

Water - the essence of life....
We just cant live without it, rite??? It is known to all that of all water v have on this planet only 3% of it is in fresh water form i.e the one which can be consumed. And in this water much of it is in the freezed form. Due to the rising heat (global warming) this freezed ice caps are melting and this water is finally getting mixed up with the salt water from where it cant b consumed. So in short span of time from now we ll end up with no fresh water for us to consume....then what will we do???
Its time now that v realize r ignorant n careless behavior towards the environment as the resources v have are dwindling at an alarming rate which would, one day finally result in a MAJOR PROBLEM.
