  Although most of the mainstream media focuses on individuals' or customers' environmental effects, corporations have a tremendous impact on our environment. However, "becoming green" requires more than a vow or a catchphrase about sustainability. Transportation may have a significant influence on business owners who seek to lower their carbon footprint. It begins with a comprehensive assessment of the procedures for shipping, delivery, and related services. According to the EPA, the transportation sector in the United States—which includes automobiles, trucks, aircraft, trains, ships, and freight—produces almost 30 percent of all U.S. global warming emissions. Cars and trucks account for about one-fifth of all emissions in the United States, generating around 24 pounds of carbon dioxide and other global-warming pollutants for every gallon of petrol.

Scientists have been recording the shifting seasons across the British Isles for almost 200 years. These long-term records have now shown an alarming pattern.   The arrival of spring, which is marked by the blossoming of flowers after a long winter, is roughly a month sooner than it used to be.

The statement "Money Can Buy Happiness" which is somewhat accurate, but it is the root cause of this delusion that money is everything you earn it by hook or crook. However, as an environmentalist, I have a different perspective on this. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT SHOULD BE REPLACED BY Ecological SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT. We are no longer in our early 2000s. We need to rethink how we do business, how we make money, and how we establish financial strategy across countries. Ecodevelopment criteria must be included into financial strategy to build a green economy. Green here only refers to an economy which is built on the foundation of eco-friendly & sustainable manners.  Why Eco-Development above Economic Development? When it comes to human development, we are not in the best shape po

Today, we are facing the Global Food Security issue which has variable causes and miserable consequences on human health. Wildlife-Human Conflict is one of the causes, which impacts considerable percent of Global Crop Land which leads to economic loss to the farmers. Forest dwellers have co-existed with wildlife populations since ages. As the land use changed with time it affected the patterns of wildlife habitats. The expansion of agriculture has been one of humanity’s largest impacts on the environment. According to the FAO, global agricultural land is increasing with the increasing food demand and it will cross 1.66 bi
