Climate change, rapid extinction of several species and ecological imbalances are facts. Planet Earth is suffering and we need to fix the damage double quick. And no, escaping to Mars is not a solution. Despite all this, it seems conservation is still not a worthy cause.
At a recent talk centred on philanthropy, Jamshyd Godrej spoke of how environmental causes and conservation are still not priority areas. He added that even today, over 80 per cent of the funding for conservation causes comes from overseas.
Changing weather and a thick layer of smog can result in various kinds of illnesses like common cold, sore throat, ceaseless cough and other respiratory problems.
While staying hydrated and working out is a must, one must consume the right foods to boost their immunity.
Dolly Kumar, founder and director at Gaia, and a wellness enthusiast, shares benefits of five foods that help build immunity and keep you healthy in the changing season.
“Education and health is always a priority. And that is correct. But at the same time, if we don’t have conservation, there won’t be balanced growth. Industry has very much been a part of the problem. But it can also be a part of the solution by focusing on energy and water conservation.
This is the point that we emphasise through industry organisations,” Godrej said. Food for thought.
