Experiencing Ecology
Environmental disturbances within the larger phenomena of Climate Change has become a commonplace occurrence in most parts of the world. In the socio-political realm this is largely attributed either to failure of resource management machinery or a technological lapse. However, a closer observation reveals that this has occurred due to a fundamentally altered consciousness of contemporary civilization towards its surrounding, the bountiful mother earth manifested in myriads of wonders all around us. The crisis is indeed a symptom of our altered perception, aspiration, priorities and trade-offs. Nature is pivotal to the welfare and sustenance of the human race. The lack of cognizance; of respect and attitudinal negligence may well be the cause of its fall.
