“Small droplets make a great ocean” edges | Benefits | Some allied honey votes to clarify the benefits and savings benefits. We are going to look at a touch of rationalization throughout this article.

Small savings to help in an accident
Man seeks money to guide traditional human life. Some value class dimensions are subject to human design. Some tribes are unplanned. Take medical expenses as an example. Someone suffers at times like this. Logic They are not set up and saved. However, people who are in the habit of saving need not worry. As a result of his small savings he is offered a hand.

Necessary cost savings
Allocating a line for small savings is the first expense that each individual or family must make to their potential subject to the financial leverage of the market. It is a good habit to set aside the exact share size in…

Review of the book: The Boy, the mole, the fox and the Horse

 

Review
of the book: The Boy, the mole, the fox and the Horse

I’m
so small”, said the mole.

“Yes”,
said the boy, “but you make a huge difference.”

 

This beautiful book “The Boy, the mole, the fox and
the Horse” written by Charlie Mackery, comprises of beautiful quotes which
according to me can help anyone to look life from a positive and a beautiful
perspective.

According to me, the best part of the book was that it
could be read by anyone, whether a 7-year-old boy or an 88-year-old grandma!
Even those people like me who are not fond of reading, it is meant for them too
and I would recommend everyone to give it a shot!

 Another interesting
thing about the book is that for those people like me and the author as well
who are not fond of reading books because books are lengthy or some of us like
author who needs pictures, this book has it all which makes even more fun to
read!

 

Summary of the book

The book unfolds the sweet and simple story of friendship
between the four main protagonists: The Boy, the mole, the fox and the Horse.

If one talks about the protagonists, one can observe
that the boy is lonely and is full of curiosity. He asks a lot of questions
about himself, his friends (the mole, the fox and the Horse) and about life.

                                                                

The mole according to me was the wisest person among
their group who was a die-hard fan of cake!

                                                             

The horse was a kind friend who was always there for
his friends. He too had a beautiful way of looking life and encouraged the boy
to do the same whenever the boy felt sad and hopeless about himself.


                                                               


The fox is a silent friend and wary as according to
the author he has been hurt by life.

The author mentions in his introduction that the boy
was lonely when the mole first surfaces. Both of them spend their time in wild.
In their wanderings, they meet fox who as mentioned above who was silent most
of the time, but towards the end of the story he too begins to warm up and
express himself more.

During their adventures in the Spring field, they
encounter horse as well who was gentlest friend among the group.

As one continues to read the adventures of the four friends,
the most beautiful thing that anyone could observe that all of them are different
and have their own strengths, weaknesses and fears. All four of them don’t
judge each other, help each other and motivate each other to look at a positive
and a beautiful way of living life whenever one of them feels lonely, sad, hurt
or unloved.

                                                         

They teach  each  other how to love themselves and treat life
with a little more kindness and embrace it with more love.

                                                               

For example: There was a scene wherein the boy was fearful that his friends would not accept him for who he was. The wise mole had an exceptional answer.

                                                                   



Finally, I would
strongly recommend everyone to read this beautiful book and like me , embark on
the beautiful journey with the four protagonists! As one can say action speaks
louder than the words, or a picture can represent thousand words, according to
me, in this book , only two or three lines can show you a whole new way of
living life!

 

Happy
reading! 

 

Incredible India!

“This is indeed India!… The land of
dreams and romance, of fabulous wealth and fabulous poverty, of
splendor and
rags, of palaces and hovels, of famine and pestilence, of genii and giants and
Aladdin lamps, of tigers and elephants, the cobra and the jungle, the country
of hundred nations and a hundred tongues, of a thousand religions and two
million gods, cradle of the human race, birthplace of human speech, mother of
history, grandmother of legend, great-grandmother of traditions, whose
yesterday’s bear date with the
moldering antiquities for the rest of nations-the
one sole country under the sun that is endowed with an imperishable interest
for alien prince and alien peasant, for lettered and ignorant, wise and fool,
rich and poor, bond and free, the one land that all men desire to see, and
having seen once, by even a glimpse, would not give that glimpse for the shows
of all the rest of the world combined”  –  
Mark Twain

Why India can’t have an Official Language

Sanjana_says's avatarTrack2Training

Our Home Minister Amit Shah mentioned about promoting one nation, one language in one of his tweets in 2019. He also added that it should not be done at the cost of other languages. Some of us might know that 14th September is celebrated as Hindi Diwas in our country. So why can’t we have Hindi as an official language?

Critics

After Amit Shah statement, critics said that if Hindi becomes the official language, then other languages like malayalam, tamil, telugu and more, will lost their importance. South Congress leader Jairam Ramesh also said “this one nation, one language will never be a reality” because it will never be easy to have a common language in India.

Also in the New Education Policy (NEP) draft in the year 2019, Hindi was asked to make mandatory in every state. This was also criticized by the South Indian governments and they refused…

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

authorrishabhsharma's avatarTrack2Training

In our everyday life, we study and see that new innovation is arising step by step. The degree of reasoning had changed. Our researchers have made a few exceptional things. Not many of them are identified with our knowledge. Presently we see that programmed machines, robots, satellites and our cell phones all are instances of man-made brainpower.

At all intricate terms, Artificial Intelligence suggests developing the ability to think and grasp and make decisions in a machine. Man-made thinking is seen as the most reformist kind of programming, and it makes a mind where the PC frontal cortex can think like individuals.

What is Artificial Intelligence?

Man-made mental ability (AI) or “man-made thinking” is a piece of computer programming, which is making machines that can think and work like individuals.

Not many models for this are: acknowledgment of sound or voice, issue dealing with and settling, educating, learning and arranging…

Top 8 solutions to reduce Global Warming !

 

As discussed, Global
warming is the process of increase in the temperature near the

 earth’s surface.
The process has been observed over centuries and has extremely

 disturbed the
weather and climatic conditions of the earth. 


                                                                        


Has anyone wondered about
how we as people can do little things in order to save our

 mother earth?  Mentioned below are top 8 solutions to combat
global warming:


1. Use fluorescent bulbs:  Use compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs as
such bulbs are

 more energy efficient and consume less than 70% as compared to ordinary
bulbs. These

 bulbs have a longer life as compared to ordinary bulbs.

                                                                      

                                                                          

2. Adopt Carpooling:  Global
warming can also be reduced if you chose to drive less. One can adopt the
option of carpooling or cycling. Both of the methods will keep you fit. Not
only your fuel will be saved but the fumes generated by the largest
contributors that is oil and gasoline would be reduced and it would be a huge
step in reducing energy wastes.

                                                                      

3. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle: Use eco- friendly products and try to reduce small
amount of waste by not buying new products.

                                                                    

Reuse plastic
containers, old newspaper, bottles, cardboard boxes, any yogurt cups, bread
ties, and other items. By doing this you won’t need to buy new products as the
old ones can equally perform the same function well and your expenses would
also be reduced. One can also reuse disposable products in order to preserve
environment.

                                                                       

Recycling
unwanted paper, bottles, tables, furniture,
aluminum foils, cans, newspapers
etc. This step would not only reduce landfills but it will also help in
preserving environment. This could also help in reducing global warming.

4. Avoid Overly Packaged Products:  Buying overly packaged products would only result in increase in
waste. This is because one generally throws packaging away as a garbage which will
then fill landfill sites with more waste and harm the environment. Thus,
encourage people to not to buy overly packaged products.
                                                                     

5. Plant trees: Contribution
to greenery by planting trees would not only nurture the

 environment but it would
act as a major contributor in reduction of global warming.


                                                                   

 

6.  Regular Maintenance of vehicles: When one will
focus on making their vehicles efficient by focusing on its regular repair and maintenance,
the vehicle would emit less carbon dioxide. This would help in reducing global
warming.

                                                                        

7. Install Earth Preservation
Apps:
 Installing Earth Preservation Apps like Kil-Ur-Watts and
Wiser EMS helps in calculating energy costs. The apps also help in suggesting
ways and providing tools through which one can save energy and money. This
would also help in preserving the environment and help in reducing global warming.

                                                                  

8. Conserve
Water:
 In a year, hundreds of gallons of water can be saved and
conserved if one chooses to take 5-minute shower instead of baths. Using right
type of shower head will greatly help in conserving energy and would also help
in combating global warming. This is because showers consume less than 25% of water
than baths.

                                                                       

Conclusion

From this article one can conclude that all the
people through their little efforts can

 combat global warming, making the mother
earth a better place to live in. The only

 thing that we all have to do is to
practice and take one step at a time.


                                                                  

 

Global Warming

Global Warming 


What is Global warming?

Global warming is the process
of increase in the temperature near the earth’s surface. The process has been
observed over centuries and has extremely disturbed the weather and climatic conditions
of the earth. 


                                                                       

Causes of Global Warming:


Deforestation

Plants and trees
play a very crucial part in maintaining balance in ecosystem by taking in
carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. Forests are being cut continuously for
domestic and commercial purposes which creates an imbalance in the ecosystem
which causes global warming.

                                                                              

                                                                            

Vehicle Usage

All the
vehicles, when in use, emit various gaseous emissions like carbon dioxide and
other toxic substances into the atmosphere. This leads to increase in
temperature which causes global warming.

                                                                        

Chlorofluorocarbon

 The ozone rays play a very crucial part in
protecting the earth surface from harmful UV (ultra violet) rays. Excessive usage
of air conditioners and refrigerators by people have increased the number of CFCs
into the environment which negatively impacts the ozone layer.

Due to CFC’s,
ozone layer depletes which makes the entry of ultraviolet rays easier.  This leads to increase in temperature which
causes global warming.

                                                                         

Industrialization

It can be observed
that the temperature of earth surface has also been increasing rapidly due to
advent of
industrialization. It is because industries emit the harmful
emissions leading to increase in temperature of the earth leading to global warming.


                                                                    


Harmful Effects of Global Warming:

Increase in Temperature

The continuous rise
in earth’s temperature has led to increased melting of glaciers which have negatively
impacted the sea level. This could have harmful effects on coastal regions.

                                                                   

Danger to the Ecosystem

Increase in temperature
caused by global warming has affected the coral reefs in a negative manner. The
rising temperatures have increased the fragility of coral reefs and the plants
and animal lives were also severely affected.


                                                                        


Climatic imbalances

Climatic
imbalances are also one of the negative consequences of global warming. Some
places experience floods and some places face droughts due to the same.
 

                                                                 

Spreading of Diseases

Global warming
leads to the movement of disease carrying mosquitoes. This is because global
warming is responsible for changing patterns of heat and humidity.

                                                                   

                                          


Harms human life

Increase in
natural disasters such as floods, tsunamis, etc, the average death toll is
increasing very rapidly due to global warming. This can lead to spread of
diseases which could harm the human life.

                                                                         

Loss of Biodiversity

Due to global
change in climatic conditions, habitat of several plants and animals are lost. Due
to this, animals migrate from their natural habitat. Many species of plants and
animals have also become extinct. Thus, global warming has an adverse impact on
biodiversity too.


                                                                     

 

Conclusion

Through this article
one can understand how harmful global warming is and how harmful can it be to
the plants, animals and humans. This is a serious issue which needs to be
addressed by all the people as a united team.

                                                                          

                                                                             

 

WATER SCARCITY

The ways water is prioritized changed
dramatically over the years. Industries overrule farmers. Urban claims more
water than rural. The rich take from the poor. Lifestyles dominate livelihoods.
The scarcity of water is only strengthening these trends.

The country that pumps more groundwater
than any other has reached a water supply and food safety reckoning that
threatens to upend political and economic stability, and long-term public
health. In this special report, building on years of on-the-ground coverage,
Circle of Blue reveals how a nation of 1.3 billion people, by failing to
protect its water, is courting disease and economic hardship as well as social
upheaval. Hand in hand with the groundwater depletion and contamination, is a
food supply “toxic time bomb” of global implications. When irrigation wells go
dry, farmers turn to untreated wastewater that is laced with industrial
chemicals and human sewage.

Water Scarcity Essay: Water scarcity is a
fundamental issue faced by almost half of the population across the world. Like
global warming and climate change, water scarcity affects human lives in
different ways.

In some places, it disrupts smooth living.
In other parts of the world, it makes the existence of human life difficult. At
this point, it is beyond any argument that water is one of the essential
requirements for humankind to survive on Earth. But, as it seems these days,
probably humankind itself is responsible for its destruction. The scarcity of
water across the globe cannot be wholly attributed to the rise in population.
Irresponsible use of water is one of the significant reasons behind water
scarcity.

Water scarcity happens when people do not
save water or even lack the willingness to save it. In some countries of the
world, water is abundant. People in such countries do not reuse water. For
instance, water which is used for washing cars can be used for gardening too.
And the water which is used to clean floors can be put to use for other
domestic purposes. But in countries where water is abundant, people use fresh
water for each activity. This leads to indiscriminate use of water. In
countries where water is scarce, people save it in a lot of ways. Some
Governments make use of financial incentives to save water. The scarcity of
water affects people in a lot of ways. Some have to pay for water, while others
have to bear the hardships of bringing them from nearby ponds and lakes. Often,
there are cases of water poisoning. This happens mainly when people do not pay
for water and tend to use it without filtration.

Many of the water systems that keep
ecosystems thriving and feed a growing human population have become stressed.
Rivers, lakes and aquifers are drying up or becoming too polluted to use. More
than half the world’s wetlands have disappeared. Agriculture consumes more
water than any other source and wastes much of that through inefficiencies.
Climate change is altering patterns of weather and water around the world,
causing shortages and droughts in some areas and floods in others. At the
current consumption rate, this situation will only get worse. By 2025,
two-thirds of the world’s population may face water shortages. And ecosystems
around the world will suffer even more.
