WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL DAY - Connecting People to Nature.
Message from Desk of CMD, Dr. Sundar Kataria
|
|
We at International Certification Services have set up a platform for an action on 5th June 2018 that is the “World Environment Day”, which is the most important day for ICS for enhancing awareness, taking initiatives, actions and organizing various programs for the protection of our environment and preserving our mother earth.
|
|
|
This is the day for ICS and ICSIANs to take initiatives to take care of the earth. Our actions and programs can be focused locally, nationally and globally. It can be an individual or a group action. Every one of us is free to choose. |
|
|
The concept of co-existence with nature is deep-rooted in our age-old Indian civilization and philosophy. The nature is given importance in every aspect of our life. Our cultural traditions, religious and spiritual actions like planting the trees, praying and watering trees, grooming flowers to offer to God, not wasting food, preservation of water, rain harvesting, use of ‘itra’ (perfumes), not using aerosol- like chemical perfumes, fasting, bathing with cold water, not wasting electricity, utilizing food waste for alternate use, use of old books and garments and having kitchen gardens etc. Our above Indian best practices to save environment need to be highlighted by increasing awareness towards environment protection. We do wish and propose that each and every member of ICS family would take at least three initiatives and actions on 5th June 2018 during the week to increase environmental awareness to save the earth. Otherwise, our next generations will not have sufficient water, which has already become a rare natural resource. Our glaciers are melting, rivers and lakes are drying and forests are vanishing very fast due to urbanization.
