The living environment includes the ingredients necessary for the life of all beings. These include air, soil, water, animal and vegetation ... that exist in nature on the earth.

The density of all living beings on earth is the basic foundation for promoting the development from the basic infrastructure to the upper structures, as well as cultural monuments. Furthermore, the earth's resources are fully used to serve the benefits of humans.

Dr. Manpreet Singh

Climate change is fast becoming a horrible reality for the planet and its beings, despite our initial and wishful ignorance in denying its possibility and existence. The threat of pending cosmic disaster is increasing with every passing day. One of the greatest man-made environmental disasters to the natural ecological system is waiting to engulf life on the planet, if a sensible approach is not followed urgently. The issue is now being regarded as a bigger threat than even terrorism or nuclear warfare.
