Shrinking Gardens!

The past two decades has seen the most effective and rapid growth that mankind has ever made. From sky scrapers to screaming automobiles, the internet and a cellular world, we have made advances that have taken the globe by storm.
Sadly, when we look back, we have cornered ourselves to a point of no return by carelessly wasting away a bulk of our natural resources. Fast vanishing forests and dry grasslands are a bleeding testimony as to how much we have encroached upon our forests. Global warming and natural disasters is a constant reminder that we share this planet with millions of other species but we continue to turn a deaf ear to these threats.
The world we once lived in had balance, colour, and serenity. But today we tread a different path. It is either blazing heat or biting cold in most parts of the Earth. Floods, wars, fires, and buildings that seem to grow taller are the order of the day.
Development is essential and is welcome but not at the cost of suffocating ourselves. At the rate at which we are going, twenty years from now we wont have any of the natural resources we so thoughtlessly exploit everyday.
The world has been crying foul for a while now and no one knows when this place we call home will finally give in! We need to act with care and begin to rethink the way we think and act towards planet Earth. It is our home and hence our duty to keep it the life sustainer it has been through the ages!
