As we got farther and father away, the Earth diminished in size. Finally it shrank to the size of a marble, the most beautiful marble you can imagine… seeing this has to change a man. —James Irwin, Apollo 15
These were the words by James Irwin, one of the lucky few to see ‘the beautiful marble’ called earth with their own eyes. The say that when many come together to do something with sheer will and determination, even the hardest obstacles of life disappear.
One would think the above suitable in fiction rather than real life. Honestly, in the context of Climate Change; it is very suitable to say that humanity is soon going to suffer the greatest catastrophes ever witnessed.
The study, published in Nature, found that thousands of years ago, glaciers in Europe retreated by up to 2,000 feet a day — more than a quarter-mile — for short periods. That’s the fastest rate ever recorded and far faster than previous studies had suggested was possible. Do you think that was fun?
As the future seems certain for change.We should not be over-anxious as the future can be understood only when we understand the lessons of the past.
Agni Pariksha brings reality over the facts of climate change and questions that forever prolong our ears. Encompassing the current climate issues with past-future predictions. Only with the aim to make one aware about what danger we are stepping into.
Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives.
