Editor,
Climatologists and environmental experts have predicted the potent danger of the gradual loss of the ozone layer that protects and acts as a layer from the ultra violet rays of the Sun. They have also come up with calculative projections of environmental dangers negated by man-made disasters like deforestation, unscientific mining of ground resources, high utilisation of fossil fuels and water scarcity.
The rise in temperatures across the country should come as no surprise even for the North East region and if no proper long-term effort is put towards an effective control against all sorts of man-made destruction like water sources, high levels of air pollution and cutting down of forests we are staring at a dangerous scenario.
Perhaps the government should go back to basics and reignite the water policy and climate change pledge before it’s too late.
