DMI St Joseph Global School holds seminar on global warming

Dimapur, December 11 (MExN): DMI St Joseph Global School organized a seminar on Global Warming for the students of Class V-IX on November 7 at the Fun station of the School.

Richard, Head of Science Department, in his keynote address stressed that if we do not protect the environment, our lives will also get affected along with the other living species in the universe. 

He went on to state that the temperature of the earth was increasing because of man-made activities like industrial effluents, smoke from vehicles, fossil fuel bring, cutting down of trees, use of air-conditioner and electric appliances which emit CFCs, and so on. 

Talking on the measures, Richard further highlighted that if we plant more and more trees, we can prevent natural calamities like earthquake, cyclone, drought, water scarcity, pollution, etc, and will continue to live happily and the future generation will not suffer due to the actions of the present generation towards the environment. 

He further emphasized the precautionary measures and instant steps students should take to protect the planet. “We should switch off electric appliances when not in use, use natural resources and switch to solar energy and alternate energy,” he added.

“If we protect our mother planet, she (earth) will protect us; if we neglect, we will suffer the consequences.”
