They'll stop when the oxygen will be no more

___THE HARMS OF DEFORESTATION___

Deforestation means clearing the forests by cutting down or burning trees in a large number. This is done to build homes, roads, bridges, etc., for the comforts and needs of rising population. It has certainly harmful effects on the environment as well as our lives. In the absence of trees which breathe out oxygen, the atmosphere gets more polluted and hotter than before, leading to global warming. Global warming results in freak droughts, floods and storms that cause heavy damage to crops, property and life in general. Trees provide much-needed wood and medicinal material. When they are cut down, the poor people are badly hit. Trees also check soil erosion. When there is no check on soil erosion fertile lands go barren and food production is badly hit.

Therefore, we must take immediate steps to check deforestation. If we need to cut trees in some areas, we should plant more in others. Plants around fields should be grown. People should be encouraged not to use wood for cooking. Alternative fuels should be provided. Some sorts of legal bans on cutting trees should be introduced and implemented strictly.

श्मशान की 'मिट्टी' को तुम नापाक़ कहते फिरते हो
ये जो तेरा शहर है, यहाँ भी कितने जंगल राख़ हुए होंगे

नहीं, यह विकास नहीं, विनाश है चरम पर,
उद्योग का यथार्थ नहीं, स्वार्थ है चरम पर,
प्रगति का संकेत नहीं, प्रकृति का ह्रास है,
नहीं यह विज्ञान नहीं, अज्ञान है चरम पर।

ग़र नहीं आता किसीको जिंदगी देना, तो क्यूँ करते हो कत्ल बियाबान का l
ग़र नहीं लहू में इंसानियत तुम्हारे तो क्यूँ औढ़े फिरते हो लिबास इंसान का l

When you enter into the animal kingdom by deforestation,
they enter in your world.
If they enter in this world,
no one can control them.

एक मूर्ख के कारण
हम पूरे शर्मसार हैं
सिर्फ कोरोना नहीं
हम इससे ज़्यादा के हकदार हैं
ज़रा सोचो हम पर
हमेशा ऐसा बवाल आए तो
मतलब 2020 हर साल आए तो

चीन का नहीं ये बदला
पृथ्वी के अपमान का है
तभी समय तूफ़ान जैसे
निर्सग और अमफान का है
एक बार तो सोचो
हमेशा हम पर ऐसा काल मंडराए तो
मतलब 2020 हर साल आए तो
