The Threat of Nature

Nature: Before and After

     An ecological crisis occurs when the environment of a species or a population changes in a way that destabilizes its continued survival. There are many possible causes of such crises; it may be that the environment quality degrades compared to the species' needs, after a change of abiotic ecological factor. It may be that the environment becomes unfavorable for the survival of a species due to an increased pressure of predation. Lastly, it may be that the situation becomes unfavorable to the quality of life of the species due to the rise in the number of individuals. Those can be the possible causes of the ecological crisis. But what will happen to mankind if this crisis kept on happening again and again? Can we humans get out of this big problem before it comes to us and take revenge?

      For students like me, I realized that as years go by, our mother nature becomes dreadful. It is because of the practices done by mankind. In the end, the ones who started it will be the one to suffer. Well, as a part of this world we can change the nature back to its original look. Even little things can make big changes. Planting trees help restore the balance between animals and humans. Trees serve as shelter for some animals. But if we continue on cutting trees and not replacing it with new ones, animals will be force to find shelter in our place making the natural balance uneven. Trees also hold the soil and prevent landslides and floods. But if there are no trees left, what will prevent those phenomena on happening? That’s why after cutting down old trees we should replace it with new ones. Segregating our garbage can also help in preventing natural phenomena to happen. In segregating the garbage, the biodegradable is separated from recyclable materials and also the non biodegradable. If we don’t segregate it, we will be the ones who will also suffer. We should also throw our trash in the proper wastebasket to make the environment clean and to help prevent flood. We should not waste paper and other materials. If in any case we can use it again, lets recycle it because it will not only help you not to spend much, but we will also help preserve our nature.

      There are many ways in turning back the beauty of nature. If we just do it step by step and hand-in-hand, we can achieve what we want to happen. Change is good if not only you will benefit but also the other people around you. Always remember that we cannot live without nature by our side. It helps us in fulfilling our daily needs. Don’t wait for the day that all of us are going to repay for what we’ve started. So take a step and make a change for the better.
