Eco-friendly Gifts

Aparna Jadhav
The world is suffering from many ecological problems and it is our duty to save it. We can start on a small scale by keeping in mind the amount of pollution our daily necessities cause, like the presents we gift.
Global warming is the current threat to our environment and nature. It is caused only by us and no one else, since we are so used to technology and mechanical instruments that cut down half our daily work.
To find an easier way to do our work, we have come up with electrical appliances which contribute to a lot of environmental pollution. Industries and automobiles that run on many harmful chemical substances have depleted our only protection from the UV rays--the ozone layer. With so many problems hovering over our heads, we have to learn and improve.
Gifts are something that we give to our friends and family to appreciate their existence in our lives. But in today's times, it's all about who gets the most expensive gifts, which only adds to the already existing dump. If you really want to make a change, try exchanging eco-friendly gifts which are more efficient and prove less of a menace to keep.
