essay writing on my environment my responsibility

My Earth, My Responsibility

Earth is a beautiful living planet in the Universe and the common habitat of more than 7 billion human population and millions of species of biodiversity. Our Earth provides us with food, shelter and most of our requirements.

Despite unavoidable free services provided by the earth to humans, we are not able to pay off her kindness to us. Rather we humans are being cruel to our Earth with our selfish activities. Mahatma Gandhi said, “Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s needs, but not every man’s greed.”

Every day we produce tons of degradable and non-degradable waste, and throw it anywhere recklessly. Smoke and harmful gases from our homes, vehicles and industries are suffocating her. We are disposing of dirty sewage, drainage and even chemicals recklessly, although we know that more than 7 billion humans, along with all plants and animals in this world, rely on water for their lives. If we aren’t concentrating on saving those water resources, then in near future water may be as expensive as PETROL or one-day people may die due to thirst. Despite huge noise by our jumbo population itself, we use loudspeakers for our entertainment & industries, airplanes or other noisy vehicles for our luxury. We destroy forests for agriculture & settlement. We build huge buildings, roads & factories beyond her carrying capacity. The establishment of nuclear reactors vastly affects the environment & human lives.

Harmful gases emitted by ACs, refrigerators, industries & vehicles are depleting ozone layer & increasing our exposure to very harmful UV rays of sun leading us towards various skin diseases, eye cataract & even cancer. Wastes like plastics & other non-degradable wastes like insecticides, pesticides, chemical fertilizers etc. highly degrade soil quality & decrease agricultural products & kills soil microorganisms & decomposers. Water pollution increases the risk of water-borne diseases like cholera, dysentery etc. and lead & arsenic highly degrade our mental ability & causes the extinction of many aquatic animals. Air pollution causes airborne diseases like asthma in humans & animals and disturbs whole metabolism process in plants. Noise pollution causes insomnia & heart diseases in humans. Deforestation is leading to natural calamities like floods, soil erosion etc, temperature increase and changed rainfall distribution, drought, loss of valuable biodiversity, decreased oxygen density etc. The burning issues in the world at present are “Climate Change & Greenhouse Effect”.

Solutions to environmental problems are not impossible for superior creatures like humans, if they are committed. As a youth & global citizen, I too have the responsibilities to my mother earth. My first role in nature is to reduce my own carbon footprint via eco-friendly activities. Then, I can form a GREEN ORGANIZATION along with some other energetic youths to raise awareness in my peer circle, neighbourhood & the community about environment sanitation by changing degradable wastes into compost manure & by 3R principle (reduce, reuse & recycle) of non-degradable wastes. I can create workshops with local people that air pollution can be controlled by replacing household energy sources like coal, firewood etc. by biogas, electricity or solar energy & we can negotiate with factory owners & vehicle owners to use dust & smoke purification systems in industries & vehicles & we can encourage them to use solar-energy based industries & vehicles.

We can organize environment sanitation programs & afforestation programs in barren lands. We youths can appeal the government to bring eco-friendly development policies & proper planning of cities. We can organize orientation programs about climate change, its causes, and effects & mitigation measures in schools & colleges to induce other youths towards conservation of nature. Youths can initiate the concept of “Payment of Ecosystem services (PES)” in society & emphasize homestay tourism in the villages. As a student of the forestry sector, I have the responsibility to aware local people about the importance of forests & effects of deforestation along with the new concept of carbon trade via REDD++ programs.

Thus, for the sustainability of our planet, I promise to fulfil my responsibilities towards Mother Nature as a global citizen so as to protect my living planet from deterioration & to handover clean & green planet to our future generations. Maybe our single efforts may seem small but if thousands of youths can unite together towards nature conservation then one day our efforts will be a drastic step to protect our motherland Earth from destruction.

The Role of Individual Responsibility in the Transition to Environmental Sustainability

Steve Cohen

We New Yorkers live in a city that is on a gradual transition toward environmental sustainability, but we are a long way from the place we need to end up. A circular economy where there is no waste and where all material outputs become inputs is well beyond our technological and organizational capacity today. But that does not mean we shouldn’t think about how to get from here to there. Much of the work in building environmental sustainability requires the development of systems that enable us to live our lives as we wish while damaging the planet as little as possible. Large-scale institutions are needed to manage sewage treatment and drinking water, to develop renewable energy and build a modern energy grid. Government policy is needed to ensure the conservation of forests, oceans, and biodiversity. Pandemic avoidance requires global, national and local systems of public health. Climate change mitigation and adaptation also require collective action. What then can individuals do?

As individuals, we make choices about our own activities and inevitably, they involve choices about resource consumption. I see little value in criticizing people who fly on airplanes to travel to global climate conferences. (I assume you do remember airplanes and conferences, don’t you?) But I see great value in considering the importance of your attendance at the conference and asking if the trip is an indulgence or if you will have an important opportunity to learn and teach. This year has taught us how to attend events virtually. There is little question that live presence at an event enables a type of communication that can’t be achieved virtually. Many times, you will judge that the financial and environmental cost of the trip is far outweighed by the benefits. Those are the times you should travel. My argument here is that it is the thought process, the analysis of environmental costs and benefits, that is at the heart of an individual’s responsibility for environmental sustainability. Individuals are responsible for thinking about their impact on the environment and, when possible, minimize the damage they do to the planet.

Everyone needs to turn on the lights at night, start the shower in the morning, turn on the air conditioning and possibly drive somewhere on Mother’s Day. I would never argue that you should give up these forms of consumption. Instead, I believe we should all pay attention to the resources we use and the impact it has. We are responsible for that thought process and the related analysis of how we, as individuals, might accomplish the same ends with less environmentally damaging means.

Some say that the fixation on individual responsibility is a distraction from the more important task of compelling government and major institutions to implement systemic change. This perspective was forcefully argued in 2019 in The Guardian by Professor Anders Levermann of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research. According to Professor Levermann:

“Personal sacrifice alone cannot be the solution to tackling the climate crisis. There’s no other area in which the individual is held so responsible for what’s going wrong. And it’s true: people drive too much, eat too much meat, and fly too often. But reaching zero emissions requires very fundamental changes. Individual sacrifice alone will not bring us to zero. It can be achieved only by real structural change; by a new industrial revolution.   Looking for solutions to the climate crisis in individual responsibilities and actions risks obstructing this. It suggests that all we have to do is pull ourselves together over the next 30 years and save energy, walk, skip holidays abroad, and simply ‘do without.’ But these demands for individual action paralyse people, thereby preventing the large-scale change we so urgently need.”

Perhaps, but I do not see it that way. I consider individual responsibility and the thought process and value shift that stimulates individual action as the foundation of the social learning process required for effective collective action. In other words, individual change and collective system-level change are interconnected. The fact is that on a planet of nearly 8 billion people, it is too late for many of us to get back to the land and live as one with nature. There’s too many of us and not enough nature. There is an absolute limit to our ability as individuals to reduce our impact on the planet. Therefore, system-level change is absolutely needed. But system change requires individuals to understand the need for change along with a well-understood definition of the problem. The cognitive dissonance of identifying a problem but never acting on it is difficult to live with. If you see a poor child on the street begging for food, you can provide that child with food and money while continuing to support public policy that addresses the child poverty issue at the systems level. In fact, the emotional impact of that child’s face may well provide the drive that leads you to fight harder for the policy that would prevent that child from needing to beg. We learn by example, and vivid experiences and cases can lead to transformative systemic change.

While I consider individual and collective responsibility connected, without collective systems and infrastructure supporting environmental sustainability, there are distinct limits to what individual action can achieve. That is why I see no value in shaming individuals for consuming fossil fuels, eating meat, or buying a child a Mylar birthday balloon. I believe an attitude of moral superiority is particularly destructive in any effort to build the political support needed for systemic change.

As my mentor, the late Professor Lester Milbrath, often argued, the only way to save the planet is through social learning that would enable us to “learn our way to a sustainable society.” He made this argument in his pathbreaking work: Envisioning a Sustainable Society: Learning Our Way Out . In Milbrath’s view, the key was to understand environmental perceptions and values and to build on those values and perceptions to change both individual behavior and the institutions their politics generated. To Milbrath, the human effort to dominate nature had worked too well, and a new approach was needed. As he observed in Envisioning a Sustainable Society :

“Learning how to reason together about values is crucial to saving our species. As a society we have to learn better how to learn, I call it social learning; it is the dynamic for change that could lead us to a new kind of society that will not destroy itself from its own excess.”

My view is that one method to pursue social learning is learning by doing — in other words by encouraging the individual behaviors we might each take to reduce our environmental impact. Those behaviors remind us to think about the planet’s wellbeing along with our own. They reinforce and remind us and as they become habit, they impact our values and our shared understanding of how the world works.

There is, therefore, no tradeoff between individual and collective responsibility for protecting the environment unless we insist on creating one. Additionally, in a world of extreme levels of income inequality, wealthy people who have given up eating meat have the resources to consume alternative sources of nourishment. They do not occupy the moral high ground criticizing an impoverished parent proudly serving meat to their hungry child. In our complex world, we should mistrust simple answers and instead work hard to understand the varied cultures, values and perceptions that can contribute to the transition to an environmentally sustainable global economy. The path to environmental sustainability is long and winding and will require decades of listening and learning from each other.

Steve, I appreciate your perspective on individual responsibility. I am developing a similar position and submitted an “OpEd” piece to Times about a month ago but alas it didn’t get published. I would like to share and develop the conversation with you so please reach out.

What are the responsibilities of individuals, governments and the international community in helping people have access to water?

While this highly educated society continues the GDP rat race and decimating all other patterns that create balance in the world we live in, here’s a little story of obvious stupidity for fun and profit. In 1975 my wife and I after several years of college chose to listen to scientists’ warnings about continued expansionism economically. We simplified our lives and did without things like electricity, fancy new vehicles and useless bling. We did without as a plausible direction for a template of living lightly and securing a viable future for more than just humans. We endured countless slurs ( tree huggers, eco-terrorists, hippies,) and were subjected to verbal and realistic abuse . Now at 72 and 68 we are wondering where the hell were the rest of you? Read the book “Small is Beautiful ” to see the wrongheaded direction your politicians and some clergy and certainly all greedy vulture capitalist have led the general public. I have no patience for obvious stupidity .Yeah, we were WOKE long before most people and feel no compulsion to be apologetic as all of you are to blame if you help continue the narrative of GDP unlimited growth and the population explosion. nats remark

“perhaps, but i do not see it that way” sorry but that kinda just means your guile is weak and you’re extremely credulous and succeptable to propeganda, dunno what to tell ya bud but this perspective is a total nothingburger. Of Course we must needs rely on some great measure of personal choice here, but if my choices are: Waste, Waste, Out of my Budget well i dont REALLY have a choice then Do I? which means that for the majority of americans there is no ethical choice list they can follow to fix the problem, only by compelling legislation can those choices be made available to them.

Sustainable Practices and Environmental Responsibility Essay

The WEF states that sustainability means not compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Can you think of any specific examples when a specific country made a decision that did not support this? What were the gains and sacrifices involved with not promoting sustainable practices?

Sustainability can be discussed as a high level of balance in solving the current environmental, social, and economic problems with references to the role of governance. Today the governments of the definite countries in North Africa are inclined not to follow the principles of sustainability with their intentions to achieve rapid economic growth by any means. In Egypt, the rapid urbanization, the development of industries, and not regular meeting the environmental requirements are affected by the necessity to gain direct economic benefits and shift the country to the new level.

Nevertheless, the overuse of the natural resources which is typical for the country and caused by the lack of the necessary supplies and the incorrect usage of these resources result in negative effects for the environment and, in combination with the aroused social problems, provokes the emergence of the problematic issues associated with the population’s welfare, employment, and health.

What do you think it would take for you to actively seek out sustainable products and services exclusively? Similarly, what types of programs, incentives, or policies would influence consumers, in general, to make the switch to only using sustainable goods and services?

To be sure that the item is worth buying, it is necessary to pay attention to the realization of the combination of such aspects as the quality of the item, its reasonable cost, and sustainability. In this case, sustainability can mean the production of the item according to the environmental protection requirements and its possible further successful recycling or utilization. Thus, the choice of sustainable products or eco-products can be considered as a contribution to the global policy of preserving natural resources and environmental protection.

Moreover, sustainable products can be discussed as more beneficial not only for social needs but also as more useful for people’s health. However, it is important not to force the public to seek out sustainable products, but to provide the necessary information about their usefulness as a means of the program and policy’s realization. It is necessary to focus on all the benefits and advantages of sustainable products such as the saving of energy and other possible resources.

The WEF cites survey data reflecting 86% of participants felt transparency in production for goods they were purchasing was important or very important to their decision. Given such a high response, do you feel the current economy is reflective of this survey response in consumer choices of goods and services? Please explain why or why not.

It is possible to state that those consumers who are interested in purchasing sustainable products or eco-products can also be interested in the peculiarities of the production of these goods which should address definite requirements of sustainability. Nevertheless, today the percentage of those people who choose mostly sustainable products with focusing on the details of their production is rather low in comparison with the amount of those people who prefer to satisfy their needs without references to the problem of different aspects of sustainability.

There is no developed and widely spread tendency to pay attention to the transparency in the production of the goods that is why the number which is presented in the survey can reflect the consumers’ intentions provided in their answers, but not the real situation in the market.

The natural surroundings that enable life to thrive, nurture, and destroy on our planet called earth are referred to as an environment. The natural environment is vital to the survival of life on Earth, allowing humans, animals, and other living things to thrive and evolve naturally. However, our ecosystem is being harmed as a result of certain wicked and selfish human actions. It is the most essential issue, and everyone should understand how to safeguard our environment and maintain the natural balance on this planet for life to continue to exist.

Nature provides an environment that nourishes life on the planet. The environment encompasses everything humans need to live, including water, air, sunshine, land, plants, animals, forests, and other natural resources. Our surroundings play a critical role in enabling the existence of healthy life on the planet. However, due to man-made technical advancements in the current period, our environment is deteriorating day by day. As a result, environmental contamination has risen to the top of our priority list.

Environmental pollution has a detrimental impact on our everyday lives in a variety of ways, including socially, physically, economically, emotionally, and cognitively. Contamination of the environment causes a variety of ailments that can last a person’s entire life. It is not a problem of a neighborhood or a city; it is a global issue that cannot be handled by a single person’s efforts. It has the potential to end life in a day if it is not appropriately handled. Every ordinary citizen should participate in the government’s environmental protection effort.

Between June 5 and June 16, World Environment Day is commemorated to raise awareness about the environment and to educate people about its importance. On this day, awareness initiatives are held in a variety of locations.

The environment is made up of plants, animals, birds, reptiles, insects, water bodies, fish, humans, trees, microbes, and many other things. Furthermore, they all contribute to the ecosystem.

The physical, social, and cultural environments are the three categories of environments. Besides, various scientists have defined different types and numbers of environments.

1. Do not leave rubbish in public areas. 2. Minimize the use of plastic 3. Items should be reduced, reused, and recycled. 4. Prevent water and soil contamination

Let’s take a look…

100 Words Essay on My Earth My Responsibility

Introduction.

Earth, our home planet, provides us with life and countless wonders. However, it’s our duty to protect it from harm. This responsibility is crucial for our survival and future generations.

We all play a part in preserving Earth. Simple actions like recycling, conserving water, and planting trees can make a big difference.

In conclusion, Earth is our responsibility. By taking small steps, we can help preserve our planet for future generations. Let’s make our Earth a better place to live.

250 Words Essay on My Earth My Responsibility

As inhabitants of Earth, we bear a significant responsibility towards our planet. Our Earth is a vibrant ecosystem, teeming with diverse life forms and rich resources. However, human activities have led to unprecedented environmental challenges, making it crucial for us to shoulder the responsibility of its preservation.

Understanding Our Role

Our Earth is not merely a place of habitation, but a living entity that nurtures us. We are intrinsically linked to its health and well-being. Our actions, from the consumption of resources to the disposal of waste, have a profound impact on the planet. Thus, we must understand our role as stewards, not exploiters, of the Earth.

Adopting Sustainable Practices

Sustainable practices are key to our responsibility. We must promote renewable energy, reduce waste, and encourage recycling. By adopting a sustainable lifestyle, we not only reduce our carbon footprint but also contribute to the longevity of our planet.

Civic Engagement

Active participation in environmental causes is a vital aspect of our responsibility. We should engage in policy advocacy, community clean-ups, and conservation efforts. By influencing societal attitudes and governmental policies, we can drive significant environmental change.

Education and Awareness

Educating ourselves and others about the importance of environmental conservation is crucial. Knowledge empowers us to make informed decisions and inspire others to do the same.

In conclusion, our Earth is our responsibility. As the custodians of the planet, we must strive to protect and preserve it. Our actions today will determine the future of our Earth, making it incumbent upon us to act responsibly and sustainably.

500 Words Essay on My Earth My Responsibility

As inhabitants of Earth, we share a collective responsibility towards our planet. This responsibility transcends national boundaries, cultures, and generations. It is a duty that binds us all, as the health and well-being of our planet directly impacts our survival and quality of life. In essence, our Earth is not just our home; it is our life support system.

The Current State of Our Planet

Our planet is currently facing a multitude of environmental crises. Climate change, driven by anthropogenic activities, is causing global temperatures to rise, leading to more frequent and severe weather events. Deforestation is reducing biodiversity and contributing to carbon dioxide build-up in the atmosphere. Plastic pollution is choking our oceans, harming marine life and entering our food chain. These are just a few examples of the environmental challenges we face today.

Our Responsibility as Earth’s Custodians

As Earth’s custodians, we have a moral and ethical responsibility to mitigate these environmental crises. This responsibility is not just towards our planet, but also to future generations who will inherit the Earth from us. We must ensure that they inherit a planet that is healthy and capable of sustaining life.

Our responsibility extends to every aspect of our lives, from the choices we make as consumers to the policies we support as citizens. We must strive to reduce our carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, and promote biodiversity. We must also advocate for sustainable policies and practices at all levels of society, from local communities to multinational corporations and governments.

Individual Actions and Collective Impact

While the scale of environmental challenges can seem overwhelming, it’s important to remember that individual actions can have a significant collective impact. Small changes in our daily habits, such as reducing waste, recycling, and choosing sustainable products, can collectively make a big difference.

Moreover, as educated individuals, we have the power to influence others and shape public opinion. By raising awareness about environmental issues and advocating for sustainable practices, we can inspire others to take action and create a ripple effect of positive change.

In conclusion, our Earth is our responsibility. As its inhabitants, we have a duty to protect and preserve it for future generations. This responsibility is not just a burden, but also an opportunity. It’s an opportunity to create a more sustainable and equitable world, where humans live in harmony with nature rather than exploiting it. It’s an opportunity to redefine our relationship with our planet, from one of exploitation to one of stewardship. And most importantly, it’s an opportunity to ensure the survival and well-being of our species, and all life on Earth.

Informative Essay on Environmental Responsibility

Essay about environmental responsibility.

Our responsibility towards environment is one of such aspects of humans’ life that most people are aware of but tend to ignore at some level of consciousness. Of course, there are activists who voice their concern and try to change this world for the better, making it more nature-friendly, but the number of such people is still too little to make a difference. So, what do we need to change the situation?

I think that one of the main problems is people’s attitude towards the problem itself. Yes, people know that if they litter, use cars and sprays, they pollute the air and environment. But they continue to do it, and no informative speech about nature can save the day. Why? I believe that it happens because they constantly hear, how many people are doing it all the time, and thus they think that if they stop doing it, and change their behavior to more environmentally-friendly, it will make absolutely no change. “Many people” will not stop doing it along with them, so, on the whole, the situation will still be bad.

I am absolutely sure that if we apply the necessary effort to change people’s attitude towards the problem, and show them that yes, this problem is not easy, but it is absolutely not difficult to change it, the situation will become much better. People will start changing their behavior, each of them making a considerable contribution to the health of our planet. If they understand that the change they will undergo themselves will do much for nature, there will be…

Essay Samples on Environment

Writing essays that relate to the environment is quite popular today as we are dealing with global warming, green energy, solar engineering, and many other subjects. Regardless of whether you are an engineer or media studies learner, you must start with a deeper exploration of what you already know. For example, writing about the benefits of solar energy is not enough without statistical data. The same relates to the local factory that contributes to pollution in your community. You must provide the facts and include at least one news report or statistical information from the special reports (if and when available). See our free environment essay examples that we have collected for you. These will help you see how to structure and format your paper. As you work on your introduction paragraph, provide statistical information and explain why the problem exists. Your thesis statement must be a claim or an assumption that leads to specific results of your research. The final part (your conclusion) must sum things up and make a call to action as it’s often done in such papers. As a helpful solution, use our environment essay samples as a template as you learn about citations and structure.
