In concurrent times, it is being that a majority of the global populace ignores the cautions being sounded by the scientists about safeguarding nature by minimizing the use of power. This essay will elucidate a few reasons attributing to this propensity and the measures can be taken to avoid such behavior.

A  school of thought propounds that numerous individuals simply ignore the basic things like switching off unnecessary lights at homes, turning the engine off while waiting at the red lights and  wasting food, out of their callous attitude since they are unable to appreciate the consequences of such irresponsible acts on the environment due to them being completely oblivious of how it is affect the environment. Moreover, all the companies are becoming highly competitive, and  in order to prosper they are resorting to research and overproduction, causing air and water pollution as their priority is profiteering and not protecting the environment and the reluctance of governments to make fall in line is not helping the cause either.  

To overcome this slackness, governments should don the mantle of educating the public by organizing various campaigns in which they explain the impact of apathetic attitude towards the plight of the planet and how it will affect their future. It has become imperative to deploy eco-friendly concepts like vertical farming so that the produce can be raised without deforestation, promote products which can be recycled, replace fossil fuels with renewable ones and other natural products which will work as a saviour for the surroundings. The authorities should also come down with an iron hand and punish those who fail to comply with the rules.  

overall,  the administration should enact environmental protection strictures and fine those not adhering to the norms laid down to minimize exploitation of nature.
