In a materialistic society like nowadays, people tend to look toward the benefits without concern about the negative that it brings back. The result is an ignorance about the important role of the natural
world
that is
surrounding them. There are several reasons behind
this
phenomenon and several solutions should be adopted by governments and individuals to tackle the situation.
First
, there are two primary reasons why the important role played by the natural
world
surrounding us are being ignored. One reason is that we don’t have the
time
and mind to pay intention to the subject. We - humans, are caught in a busy lifestyle, neither it was being obligated to stay all day in an office or working at home, we don’t have much
time
to bother to care about anything else
besides
our own business. For children and those who are still pursuing education, school system force them to sit in classes for 8 hours or more in a day just to stick their head in books, they hardly have
time
to play outside and acknowledge the natural
world
around them.
Furthermore
, festivals and carnivals about nature,
such
as spring or harvest celebrations had disappeared over
time
. The young generation these days are not interested in the natural
world
anymore,
instead
, they become distracted or even addictive with social media and modern tech.
Fortunately, several measures could be taken to prevent
this
problem. The
first
solution would be to encourage people to volunteer in environmental work, companies should make a regulation to send some of the employees to sign up for environment protections at their local places. People themselves can voluntarily take part in these events to gain some life experiences and get connected more with others. As for the school system, they should balance between study and relaxation,
besides
studying, schools should give children or student a reasonable
time
to relax and play outside so that they could get
time
to know the natural surrounding. Not only changing the lifestyle but
also
celebrate to remember the important role of the natural
world
by holding lots of festivals and carnivals with environmental themes, not only will it get people to remember the meaning of the event and connect with others, tourist will be attracted to come and make benefit for the local and the economy at the same
time
.
In conclusion, it is clear that these are various reasons for the lack of understanding about nature, but with proper solutions, people will keep in mind the
world
they are living in.
