Prayavaran Lok Manch is going to organise a one-day seminar on “Climate Change & Environmental Crisis”. You all are cordially invited and expected to participate in this seminar.
We all know that today our country, as well as the planet itself, is suffering the consequences of environmental crisis. None of the aspects of human life is untouched by this phenomenon. The whole planet is continuously getting warmer every day due to global warming. The consequences are coming out with dreadful and dangerous face. Melting of glaciers, rising sea level and acidification of seas are still going on. This year Kerala, Karnataka, Uttarakhand, Assam, and the other North-eastern states have been badly affected by flood. The normalcy of life is in jeopardy in these areas. Many parts of our country are facing the consequences of drought and famine. Due to this, agriculture is the worst-hit part of national life. Forests are shrinking and deserts are growing day by day. Newly emerging diseases due to rising pollution are taking tolls on human lives. Instead of clean water rivers are filled with contaminated factory waste which is causing life-taking diseases like cancer in their surroundings.

To cop up with the economic crisis the rate of natural resource exploitation has spiked up. This has in turn been gradually making the environmental crisis bad to worse. Ignorance and irresponsibility on the part of government and administration, majority of population busy in just arranging daily necessities and careless attitude of the educated community have contributed to the lack of concrete initiative towards solving this problem. This seminar is being organised to make this problem as central to the debates among the majority of toiling masses and for enhancing our own understanding of various aspects of this problem so that a new change could be start off.
