Foreword:

  • In the modern era, our progressive lifestyle has given us many facilities, but with this development, we have shown negligence towards the environment. During the growth and development, we have also seen an increase in our temperature which is affecting the natural growth.
  • In this blog, we will consider the scale of rising temperatures and negligence and discuss their impact on the environment.

Impacts of Rising Temperature:

  • Controlling the temperature of our earth is very important for the environment. But the visible increase in average temperature is becoming a major cause of global warming. For example, the use of high energy producing fuels, industrialization, deforestation, belief and climate change etc. are the reasons behind this rise in temperature.
  • Following are some of the major effects of this temperature rise:
  • Melting of glaciers: Due to global warming, the rate of melting of glaciers in glaciers is increasing, increasing the risk of sea smuggling on the beaches.
  • Changing weather patterns: Rising temperatures are causing changes in weather patterns leading to more and more intense rainfall, increased storm surges, and natural disasters such as extreme heatwaves.
  • Loss of control of fauna: Due to rising temperature, wildlife and plants are facing separation from their original environment, which threatens to disturb their natural life cycle.
  • Effects of Negligence: Due to negligence and ignoring the importance of environmental protection, we are facing many acute problems. Growing population, industrialization development work and the carelessness of the environment in the works of development has caused many losses.
  • Following are some of the major effects of negligence:
  • Pollution: Different types of pollution like air, water, and noise pollution have spoiled the environment, which can prove to be dangerous for health.
  • Wastage of water: Due to negligence we are wasting water resources at many places, which also affects common people in climate change.
  • Degradation in production of electricity: Due to deforestation in setting up of power plants for more energy production, the natural balance is getting disturbed which is causing environmental consequences.

Solution:

  • To reduce the effect of rising temperature and carelessness, we need to increase sensitivity towards the environment in our behavior and act responsibly.
  • By pursuing more advanced and productive technological solutions, we can use alternative energy sources that are not only environmentally sensitive, but also encourage development.
  • By improving wildlife conservation and wildlife control, we can preserve our natural resources.
  • Along with this, there is a need to raise awareness among people for environmental protection, to follow environmental laws and to spread awareness in the community.

Conclusion:

  • We all need to unite and work together to deal with the rising temperature and carelessness for the environment.
  • This is a time of sensitivity and struggle for us to strike a balance between prosperity and environmental protection.
  • Starting from ourselves and taking steps in the right direction, we can succeed in creating a cleaner, greener, and safer environment.
