Death of Bruno:
Bruno was the name of the dog that went through the unpleasant fate. Bruno was a friendly black Labrador in the care of Christuraj.The heart-breaking incident that lead to the death of Bruno took place in Adimalathura Beach,kottukal.The atrocious act happened in the state of Kerala, India.

On June 28,Monday three men at the Adimalathura Beach assaulted Bruno to death by hanging the dog to a fish hook of a boat and then Bruno was beaten by sticks. The accused Sunil(20), Silvester(22), and a 17 year old boy were arrested after this incident was filed as a complaint by the owner Christuraj. This vicious act was done to Bruno as it was resting under the boat of the accused.This incident came to light after the video of Bruno being beaten to death went viral on social media.The video was shared by the dog’s owner,christuraj. According to the police, Sunil one of the miscreants seemed to have some issues with his neighbour, Christuraj. The owner Christuraj was threatened by the culprits after the incident.

Bruno Dog:
The owner Christuraj was shocked after this brutal incident done to Bruno. He claimed Bruno as a friendly dog. Bruno was a 9-year old dog that usually has a habit of playing in the beach everyday.

Bruno’s Case:
Following the barbarous incident, Celebrities like Alia Bhatt, Tiger Shroff have raised their voices against the culprits. Kerala HC renamed Bruno’s case as “Tribute to dog brutally killed”.The court believed that this would be a tribute to the deceased dog.A great number of people raised their voices against this ruthless incident.
A similar case have been reported in Bangalore, two weeks ago. A man has brutally murdered a stray dog in the city and threw it in a drain. The video of the incident have been caught on camera and surfaced online. The police have filed a case against the man under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960.

Laws against animal brutality:
The amendment to the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960 have been proposed by the Union Government. Importance of Animal safety must be ensured as much it is ensured for the human beings.

Importance of Animal safety:
Animals are the most affectionate and lovable beings. Taking care of them with extreme protection is a primary duty to all of us. Animals must never be subjected to violence. In case of any difficulty caused unknowingly by them, it should be reported to helplines.The wide prevalence of today’s technology enables one to find help trouble-free.
Similarly animal cruelty must be reported to defend the animals. Laws can help to punish the culprits against the brutal act. Animals would never try to harm human beings unless we act as a threat to them. Hence, Violence against animals is a punishable offense and atrocious. Not only animals, other creatures must also never be harmed unnecessarily. It can later lead to serious consequences.

WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS

The integrity of the criminal justice system is primarily determined by its competence and fairness. Its competence is measured by its ability to investigate and detect crime, identify criminals, and impose appropriate punishments on those convicted of crimes. Wrongful convictions jeopardize the integrity of the criminal justice system. If a person is wrongfully convicted, he or she is punished for an offense that he or she did not commit, but the true perpetrator of the crime is not punished. So wrongful convictions also harm the public since imprisoning an innocent person allows the true perpetrator to go free. In addition, when unjust convictions are discovered, public trust in the system decreases. Condemning the innocent defies justice, depriving men and women of dignity, relationships, time, opportunity, and freedom.

The criminal justice system is founded on the fundamental legal principle that an accused person is deemed innocent until conviction following a trial. This runs counter to the public’s belief that the vast majorities of people accused with criminal offenses are, and will be found to be, guilty. Wrongful convictions undercut both this fundamental legal principle and this public expectation because they demonstrate that the presumption of innocence can be maintained even when it is violated and that the justice system does not simply deal with the guilty. The tragedy of wrongful convictions is caused by a number of circumstances. The great majority of cases involve eyewitness mis-identifications as a result of inadequate crime scene visibility and poor police conduct. Every wrongful conviction exemplifies a unique set of flaws in the criminal justice system that has stopped it from functioning properly and fairly. Because wrongful conviction results reflect a fundamental undermining of the integrity of the criminal justice system, the mechanisms designed for reviewing such cases are exceptional in nature and are hardly found useful. To do differently would be to call the criminal justice system’s legitimacy into doubt and, by drawing attention to its flaws, to destroy public trust.

Immediate action should be made to ensure that no more men and women are wrongfully imprisoned. To improve the accuracy of witness identifications, police personnel conducting lineups should be knowledgeable of the suspect’s identity so as not to impact witnesses’ decisions, should ask witnesses to evaluate their confidence in their identifications, and should film the entire procedure. Confessions from defendants should also be filmed. This safeguard against coercion by authorities attempting to show guilt. Only the most advanced forensic science procedures should be employed to determine guilt. Prosecutors should be trained in ethical principles as well as the grounds of wrongful convictions. States should keep teams of skilled defense lawyers on hand who can dedicate the necessary time to each accused. Furthermore, all states should pass compensation statutes that offer adequate money for defendants to rebuild their lives. No matter what changes are implemented, the reconsideration of convictions will always be an exceptional event; an effective method of carrying out this duty will increase the effectiveness and integrity of the criminal justice system. It has the potential to lessen the likelihood of wrongful convictions while also improving the integrity of our justice system.

Climate Change

Climate change incorporates both an Earth-wide temperature boost driven by human-initiated discharges of ozone harming substances and the subsequent huge scope shifts in climate designs. However there have been past times of climatic change, since the mid-twentieth century people remarkably affect Earth’s environment framework and caused change on a worldwide scale. The biggest driver of warming is the outflow of gases that make a nursery impact, of which over 90% are carbon dioxide and methane. Fossil fuel consuming (coal, oil, and gaseous petrol) for energy utilization is the principle wellspring of these outflows, with extra commitments from agribusiness, deforestation, and manufacturing.[4] The human reason for environmental change isn’t questioned by any logical assortment of public or global standing.[5] Temperature rise is sped up or tempered by environment criticisms, for example, loss of daylight reflecting snow and ice cover, expanded water fume (an ozone harming substance itself), and changes to land and sea carbon sinks.

Temperature ascend ashore is about double the worldwide normal increment, prompting desert extension and more normal warmth waves and wildfires. Temperature rise is additionally enhanced in the Arctic, where it has added to liquefying permafrost, frigid retreat and ocean ice loss. Warmer temperatures are expanding paces of vanishing, causing more serious tempests and climate extremes. Impacts on biological systems incorporate the movement or eradication of numerous species as their current circumstance changes, most quickly in coral reefs, mountains, and the Arctic. Climate change compromises individuals with food weakness, water shortage, flooding, irresistible sicknesses, outrageous warmth, financial misfortunes, and relocation. These effects have driven the World Health Organization to call environmental change the best danger to worldwide wellbeing in the 21st century. Even if endeavors to limit future warming are fruitful, a few impacts will proceed for quite a long time, including rising ocean levels, rising sea temperatures, and sea acidification. Energy streams between space, the air, and Earth’s surface. Current ozone depleting substance levels are causing a radiative lopsidedness of about 0.9 W/m2.

Large numbers of these effects are as of now felt at the current degree of warming, which is about 1.2 °C (2.2 °F).The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has given a progression of reports that project huge expansions in these effects as warming proceeds to 1.5 °C (2.7 °F) and beyond. Additional warming likewise builds the danger of setting off basic edges called tipping points. Responding to environmental change includes moderation and adaptation. Mitigation – restricting environmental change – comprises of decreasing ozone harming substance discharges and eliminating them from the atmosphere strategies incorporate the turn of events and arrangement of low-carbon fuel sources, for example, wind and sun oriented, an eliminate of coal, upgraded energy proficiency, reforestation, and backwoods safeguarding. Transformation comprises of changing in accordance with genuine or expected climate, for example, through further developed coastline assurance, better fiasco the board, helped colonization, and the advancement of more safe yields. Transformation alone can’t deflect the danger of “serious, far and wide and irreversible” impacts.

Under the 2015 Paris Agreement, countries on the whole consented to continue to warm “well under 2.0 °C (3.6 °F)” through moderation endeavors. Notwithstanding, with promises settled on under the Agreement, a dangerous atmospheric deviation would in any case reach about 2.8 °C (5.0 °F) before the finish of the century. Limiting warming to 1.5 °C (2.7 °F) would require splitting outflows by 2030 and accomplishing almost zero emanations by 2050.

A worldwide temperature alteration is the drawn out warming of Earth’s environment framework saw since the pre-mechanical period (somewhere in the range of 1850 and 1900) because of human exercises, essentially petroleum derivative consuming, which builds heat-catching ozone harming substance levels in Earth’s climate. The term is habitually utilized reciprocally with the term environmental change, however the last alludes to both human-and normally delivered warming and the results it has on our planet. It is most normally estimated as the normal expansion in Earth’s worldwide surface temperature.

Since the pre-modern time frame, human exercises are assessed to have expanded Earth’s worldwide normal temperature by around 1 degree Celsius (1.8 degrees Fahrenheit), a number that is as of now expanding by 0.2 degrees Celsius (0.36 degrees Fahrenheit) each decade. A large portion of the current warming pattern is very possible (more noteworthy than 95% likelihood) the aftereffect of human movement since the 1950s and is continuing at an extraordinary rate over a long time to centuries.

Environmental change is a drawn out change in the normal climate designs that have come to characterize Earth’s nearby, territorial and worldwide environments. These progressions have an expansive scope of noticed impacts that are inseparable from the term. Changes saw in Earth’s environment since the mid twentieth century are fundamentally determined by human exercises, especially petroleum product consuming, which builds heat-catching ozone depleting substance levels in Earth’s climate, raising Earth’s normal surface temperature. These human-created temperature increments are regularly alluded to as an unnatural weather change. Regular cycles can likewise add to environmental change, including inside changeability (e.g., recurrent sea designs like El Niño, La Niña and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation) and outside forcings (e.g., volcanic action, changes in the Sun’s energy yield, varieties in Earth’s circle).

Researchers use perceptions starting from the earliest stage, and space, alongside hypothetical models, to screen and concentrate past, present and future environmental change. Environment information records give proof of environmental change key markers, for example, worldwide land and sea temperature expands; rising ocean levels; ice misfortune at Earth’s posts and in mountain icy masses; recurrence and seriousness changes in outrageous climate like tropical storms, heatwaves, fierce blazes, dry spells, floods and precipitation; and cloud and vegetation cover changes, to give some examples.

Colorism In British India .

British colonialism further exacerbated colourism. The British Raj, or the official British rule over India, began in 1858 and lasted until the independence of India and the partition of Pakistan in 1947. During this time, a pseudo-scientific concept called “social Darwinism” became popular. The term, a reference to Charles Darwin’s work on evolution, describes the common belief that factors such as skin colour, bone structure, and facial features were determinants of levels of intelligence, and it became part of the justification for Britain’s treatments of its colonised natives. In India, Britain’s general strategy seemed to involve keeping fair-skinned Indians as allies by privileging them over darker-skinned Indians. A system of institutionalised segregation was established and, while some institutions segregated against all “[coloured] people”, many segregated only against “black Indians”, with signs clearly stating: “Indians and dogs not allowed”. Conversely, lighter-skinned Indians were given preference over their darker counterparts and were hired more frequently.

Although there was some pushback against this mistreatment by the British, the Indian people were, in general, less motivated to protest because the caste system had already cemented clear divisions along racial lines. Centuries of rule by foreigners had already cemented the idea that power belonged to light-skinned individuals, and it meant that when an external, more malicious force came in to uphold those divisions, people were less inclined to object.

However, colourism has always been an intersectional issue. The oppression people face due to colourism is often paired with, and/or magnified by their gender, caste, social status, financial status, and education. Despite the longevity of the issue, civil society is only now beginning to dismantle institutional colourism. “Dark is Beautiful” is an organisation fighting colourism by organising workshops to educate the youth on the dangers of colourism and by creating petitions and lobbying against the leading fairness cream brands. In the future, it seeks to “involve… many people and [organisations], including politicians, sportspersons, and influential people.” “India’s Got Colour” is another campaign that aims to end systemic bias against skin colour. One of its ambassadors, Nandita Das, an actress and producer, travels around the country to educate children in schools on the pervasiveness of colourism and to share her story and recount the different treatment she received from the media due to her skin colour. In Bollywood, instances of brownface, the act of intentionally darkening one’s skin, have started receiving more public backlash than ever before.

Colourism refers to prejudice against individuals with a dark skin tone. In India, it is reflected in many parts of society, from advertisements on billboards to lyrics in songs to household anecdotes. It can manifest itself in very apparent ways, such as in advertisements for skin lightening products showcasing women achieving their dreams only after lightening their complexion, but it can also take on more subtle forms. Regardless, its influence is pervasive. In 2015, the Indian National Museum conducted a study where they surveyed one hundred college students from across the country, inquiring about the skin colour they considered to be a beauty ideal. When asked to describe “pretty”, 71% of the respondents cited words alluding to lighter skin tones, including “fair” and “light”. While this study featured a relatively small sample size, the trends it highlights are common in Indian society and perpetuated through the media. In fact, 90% of all Indian advertisements show lighter-skinned models, and most Bollywood movies feature a cast of exclusively light-skinned actors.

Beyond a lack of representation of dark-skinned individuals in the media, having darker skin is seen as a disadvantage for many other prospects as well, from “hireability” to chances of marriage. The latter is especially true in rural villages wherein women with a darker skin tone are seen as less desirable and face greater challenges in finding a spouse. Another damaging result of colourism is the rise of the ever-growing skin lightening market and the health risks this market presents. The Tata Institute of Social Science (TISS) conducted a study in which they surveyed 1,238 women and 746 men on their use of fairness creams. Of those, 59.6% of women and 46.1% of men reported using fairness products at some point in their lives. When asked why, 31.2% said they wanted to look “beautiful” and 36.2% believed looking fairer would help them “feel culturally accepted”. These skin lightening products have serious, and often long-lasting, side effects. In 2006, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released a notice stating that it no longer recognises over-the-counter skin bleaching products as safe or effective. Despite this, India’s skin lightening market is projected to continue growing with an April 2018 study estimating that by 2023, it would be worth “Rs. 5,000 crore”, or about $700 million USD.

HUMANITY

Being kind is the biggest asset in you.

I’m very sure humanity dead in this generation. Everyone are busy with their works, they forget helping others. In this world, each day has 24 hours and we ourself not even spend a single minute to see others. This is the only place where richer gets rich and poorer stays poor. How to get off the imbalance the rich should take over the poor. The life is undefined, even next minute may take our breathe after that there’s no use of hiding money. Just a single paper of currency can bring smile among many.

For an instance, while you’re walking in a road a man before you suddenly gets fainted there’s nobody noticing him even yourself never bought a bottle of water to wake him instead we all just take our mobile and tape him and put them in social media’s tagging RIP HUMANITY, yes humanity dead and the first accused is you.

There are many people in search of God and spending lot to find where’s the origin and who he belongs. But the actual truth is no such thing, don’t search God among others search God on you. If a hunger begger gets feed by you, then you’re the God to him. Feel the God in you, if you sow smile I’m others by helping then you can see the good aura in you.

There are many developed countries and many developing countries, between these two there’s another category countries which could be developed. The majority businessmen are failed to take care of their own motherland. Think others with a open communal mind, if the hungry of you gets over and still you have food then why you hesitate of storing it instead you could share it.

The question is where does it starts or whom does it should be. The answer is within you. Search yourself and start helping others. As a human you should take care on others too that’s why we are declared as 6th sensed beings.

HUMANITY IS NOT THE BEST QUALITY, IT’S A BASIC QUALITY.
