COVID-19 and subsequent lock down has brought lots of problem to the masses. People couldn't go out, play, eat, and work. Schools, Colleges, Workplaces were all closed and streets were empty. But in all these troubling times, something good also happened.
Pollution was decreased, wild animals roamed freely, many farm animals lived to see another day, many plants and trees too might have got another day of life. Human as a species had to stop their daily activities and surely that had some impact on some living being, their habitat as we held back a little...to encroach their ecosystem.
We do have animal right organisations like PETA, NGOs and independent people working for the cause of environment. Summits as made for climate change and nations call for saving the habitat through national parks.
Does these works..Yes, until an environmental activist, NGO or Environmental friendly Govt. is present (like in Europe, India). But then, when greed comes, people forget sustainable development, depending on who controls the govt, people, or policies.(China, USA, Brazil).
Why can't there be a permanent solution to these problems? Why is there a feeling of helplessness?
The world is big, and million of businesses are flourishing by exploiting the natural resources. (Mining, Industries, Real estates)
Environment protection and preserving the habitat is difficult as it is a volunteer service and relies on people's goodwill. It's not feasible against corrupt or greedy people and poor or hungry people. We need to see the things from different perspective to achieve some kind of permanent solution. What is one thing that lasts long?
Answer is: Money or Business! Environment activism won't last if taken as Charity, but work only as a flourishing Business!
We are working towards it but it still lacks popularity, richness, political backing. So, I just thought some ideas regarding this problem.
One should take inspiration from our surroundings. What we lack is a big, powerful, rich, with political backing, an umbrella organization that can regulate, promote and maintain sustained and aggressive activities to protect our environment. Let us name this organization " Saving our ecosystems (SOEs).
Why SOEs? Because environment is nothing but amalgamation of multiple ecosystems. Many minor ecosystems that we ignore, might just be the essential habitat to protect and promote natural life cycle.
Imagine, like Chinese companies and their debt trap policies, that countries are forced follow, even knowing that it is against their national interests. Their diplomacy and management ideas can be used for promotion. Think of Amazon, Uber, and OYO services...that we can use for bringing every environment related business under SOEs and make SOEs a multi billion success.
To the ethical businessmen, who donates billions for many causes, they can join and start SOEs or like minded Business (not Charity) and promote: Solar energy, Electric vehicles and charging centers, Agribusiness, Biodiesel, Herbal products, Internship and skill development program, market nature related tourism, take tenders to maintain natural parks and reserves.
Not only it provides earning opportunities to locals, but also provide awareness and practice of environmental protection. One can also promote veganism and vegetarianism under such organization.( Although Animal husbandry in local manner should be also promoted).
There is another reason of bringing the name of SOEs: Promote individual family ecosystems in form of Gardens, Ponds, Trees among the masses. Either by monetary benefit or scholarship benifit, these can be promoted on institutional basis.
So friends, there are lot more to think about, but I would prefer you to expand your imagination, if you too care for our deleting ecosystems,habitats...damaging environment and bringing climate change.
After all, COVID-19 have given us an opportunity to sit back and ponder.
