Let's create something out of waste- A small effort to recycle a plastic box

Hello Everyone,
So this is my first Vlog. I have written many blogs around environment and what can we do individually. This Vlog will tell you all about super easy way to use a waste plastic box and some foams and transform them into a beautiful jewellery box. Many times we  throw plastic boxes and other type of boxes but rather than throwing them we can build something really different out of it.
Hope you all will like it. 

Inderpal Singh Batra- The real environment Hero

Inderpal Singh Batra is a nature loving from his childhood and is fascinated with sparrows. One day, a tree near his house was cut to make a building there. That tree was home to many sparrows and he felt really bad that day. We often come across many problems around us but a person who transforms a problem into an opportunity is a hero. So, is Inderpal who decided to make his home, a place where birds could live safely. He started to plant trees in his place and placed mud pots so that sparrows can have a natural habitat. At first, Inderpal planted bougainvillea and shami, when these plants grew, he added mud pots with clothes,cotton, and grass kept inside it. In the span of few days, sparrows started coming and today people from different parts of India come to his place to watch these sparrows. 
With his efforts the resident of Banaras has given many sparrows a safe natural habitat. It is truly a wonderful work to give habitat to those birds who have lost their homes due to urbanisation and Inderpal and his family are a big inspiration for all of us. 
Perfect example of how individualist effort has evidently made a difference.

Let's make homes for your childhood bird

In my previous blog, I promised you all that my next blog will have simple and easy solutions that we can adapt to bring back our 'bachpan ki chidiya'- Sparrows back in our homes. Due various reasons like concrete buildings, lack of sparrow homes, the population of this beautiful bird is constantly decreasing. Earlier we need not count the birds as we had this bird in so large number but now we can hardly see this bird. Situation is worse and we have to take an action as soon as possible to revive the population of this home bird. The super easy methods that we can inculcate in our households are listed below-

-Plant at least three plants in your balcony and take good care of it.
-Use your kitchen waste as manure and add these to your little garden.

-This is surely begin the decomposition process and then would help in the development of microbes    that these birds feed on. 
-You can also add bird feeders in your balcony.
-Keep water bowl and bird bath containers so that  in summers birds can have water and also can take bath which will help these birds to rehydrate.

-Plants  and hedges, that are native to the place, can be grown. This encourages sparrows to come     back.
-Artificial nests in our balcony will help these birds have a safer and a constant place to live and     breed. 

My childhood's best memory, where are you?

Sparrows were considered to be every home's bird back in 90s. We could easily see two or three just sitting on our balcony shelf. My favourite childhood memory was also seeing sparrows flying from one home to another but now in the 2000 era, we are hardly seeing any of our childhood bird around our house. What exactly are the reasons for the sparrows to vanish like that from Delhi?

With Delhi running fastly into modernisation and modifying itself into a modern urban living, there is no space for the bird that has always been a part of our household. Lack of ventilators, houses are now made up of glass panels leaves no room for sparrows to make their homes. There are no green trees in your yards now, most of us do not have yard at all as all we see is concrete building everywhere in Delhi. For the majority of children in Delhi, a sparrow is only a pretty picture in their bird books. Noise, installation of mobile towers, radiation have made these bird's life hell. Some have died already and some are on the verge of extinction. We as humans have exploited Delhi bird's  natural home and habitat. So, what can we do?  
You will get to know about interesting solutions that individually you can do to revive your childhood bird in your  house  again. So, stay tuned................

Let's learn to segregate

Garbage ,a dump of waste that we throw out of our homes and we want to get rid of it as soon as possible. What actually happens to that pile of waste that we throw out of our house? Have we ever thought about it? 
Most of us think that we have thrown away the pile of waste and now we have fulfilled our responsibility but that ragpicker who takes all the waste from our houses then has a hard time as first he has to segregate it into dry and wet waste which should be our habit. Government are giving out a lot of advertisement around it but this can only be implemented when we adapt this habit in our daily lives. 
Individuals approach is the need of the hour which includes the process of segregation at our own home.  Let's make it a habit that  when ever we throw anything we should always segregate so that it becomes easy for ragpickers to recycle the waste.
Recycling waste is very important as then only we can eliminate the load that is constantly increasing on earth.Most of us aren't aware that outside Delhi ,there are huge mountains of waste which is creating bigger problems day by day for the people around the place as it is inviting  diseases on a large scale. Blue for dry and green for wet waste. 
So, let's make this a practice to  segregate so that we make this world a better, a cleaner and  healthier place to live. 

People, the real victims of climate change

In the recent times,Delhi's air quality have been known for consistently decreasing .We all know that the air quality had decreased to such a level that visibility level was minimum.This problem attracted world over news channels and publications as environment and climate change adverse impact was purely evident. 

The problem was not only the visibility, the impact of this pollution was huge as it was seen on Delhi's people as they  were highly affected ,they were seen coughing all the time and some were reported to have series breathing problems. Everyone blamed vehicular pollution but the root cause was over exploitation of resource and gradual increase harmful products usage like plastics.

Climate change has truly not only depleted resources but also had immensely affected people living in Delhi and world over.And there is a need to urge people to use alternate resources so that the impact of climate change can be reversed.

Allow your children to be in love with nature

In our childhood we have played so many games, one of the game was hide and seek where we used to hide behind the trees, we have enjoyed our childhood playing here and there but we really see now children playing outside. The answer is no or very less, today children are more connected to playing games on phones and tablets. Ironically, we make a cartoon in subway surfer run but the children are not at all indulge in physical activities. They are made to study about the greenery around but can't feel the trees. On talking to Prerna Bindra, a well known environmentalist,  she threw the light upon this subject that parents should allow their children to be with nature. She also added that the needs of today's generation is are entirely different from their own in the lack of a more natural environment. Children of today's time are distant from nature. Children needs to be around nature to literally feel its beauty not just made to learn about it. If they will feel it then only they will be able to understand its problems and then only they will initiate to save it. Inculcating values of saving natural resources from very tender age should be there so that they fulfill their individualist approach from their very childhood.
