Nature Speech
As you all know that this meeting is weekly organized to discuss various issues concerning our
society and to amend those issues keeping in mind the best interest of all members of our
society. Having said this, as a secretary of our society group, it even becomes my greater
responsibility to look after the betterment of our society. However, in recent times, I came
across some incidents that have left me unsettled. I happened to come across such people,
who have unfortunately no sensitivity towards the cause of protecting nature, despite my
stressing the fact that how nature plays a crucial role in building a healthy environment and
giving us a balanced and sustained life amidst growing pollution and declining peace of mind.
So here in front of you all, I wish to deliver a speech on nature so that we can inform ourselves
of the most important things and make our place, i.e. not just our living surrounding, but the
whole world a better place to live in. We all should understand that our environment is the
fountainhead of life. It not only directs, but also determines the sustenance, development and
growth of the living species and all their activities. The quality of our social lives bears direct
relation to the quality of our living environment.
Even if Science and Technology has taken a great sway over our lives, we must not forget that
as living species we still need to adapt to our immediate natural surroundings for our
sustenance. Human civilization is rooted in the ecosystem and our actions directly impact this
system. With the help of technological advancement, human beings have become endowed
with the capacity to control his/her environment to a certain extent, but its unfair use results in
an ecological crisis. Unwarranted technological intervention to control the forces of nature has
invited its wrath in various forms, such as tsunami, floods, droughts, heat waves, wildfire, etc.
Besides natural calamities, the damage caused to environment is irreparable, such as reduction
of underground water and heavy shortage of fresh drinking water, shrinking of wetlands and
forests, wearing away of soil and coral reefs, disappearance of plants and loss of living
organism, rapid extinction of different species of animals as well as failing of fisheries, the
growing pollution of water and air, increase in temperature due to global warming, the
contraction of ozone layer and poisoning of seas, rivers and underground resources.
With this continuous depletion of natural resources, we are putting our own lives under great
peril and the day is not very far when drinking water, fresh air, petroleum, natural gas and the
top soil of earth will become exhaust for our future generation. So it’s high time that we keep a
close watch on our environment and protect it from the possible dangers, especially exploitative
human activities.
In the end, I just want to say that love the nature, value its presence and the things that it offers
us in abundance.Thank You!
