Go green aspect

The Ganges is a historical river in India (Our  " Mother River") has been of high religious and cultural significance but  in modern times has been threatened by  pollutions in various ways. The river is rapidly shrinking due to significant reduction in discharge to the ocean. Although it has  India's most cultural and economical importace, the  rivers is almost going to die day by day.

We feel generous while talking about child labour but there are no open or hidden 
features are there which redirects warm-hearted nature of ours or understanding!

From history we can collect the statistics that the first general laws against child 
labour, the Factory Acts, were passed in Britain in the first half of the 19th century. 
Children younger than Nine Years  were not allowed . And youth under age 18 
years was limited to twelve hours.

In India, around (1996-1997) research indicates that the number of child labors 
in the silk-weaving industry in the  in India exceeded nearly about  40,000. 
Basically included children who were bonded labourers to loom owners. But 
thanks to RIDE(Rural Institute for Development and Education) took measures 
and massive activities to improve the situation of child labourersand collaboration 
the ratio has come down to 4000 according to 2007 statistics.

Every year in JUNE  12th, the world celebrates Anti-Child Labour Day. Some 
Governmental and NGO's are taking this seriously to decrease the number of 
child labour in various industries and in different ways. 

Still it's difficult to cope up as we, the general public used to turn our faces from
the truth of incidents. Even it's highly destructive for the children too who are under 
poverty line, when their parents sends them to work in houses and industries and 
keep their mouth shut against any abuses or pathetic incidents happens to their 
children.

The reality suggests that  it 's good to be developing international and national 
laws and programmes to stop child labour probably from it's worst forms, until and 
unless one comes to moral and political grips. The struggle against child labour 
may washed out if we don't  take proper action and approach against child labour 
and not take this as a discrete problem that can be tackled without reference to 
the socio economic aspects,where it's root lies. Only then the real social changes 
can  take place gradually. We hope so.

One of the major commitment regarding Forest conservation taken by UN in 2007 summit was:  

To the management, conservation and sustainable development of all types of forests. Along with establishing, the UN General Assembly eluded that each and every environmental problem is Global in Nature. The term Sustainable Development was introduced by the Brundtland Commission. Afterwords this becomes most significant and regular uttered quote means " "meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."which coined what has become the most often-quoted definition of sustainable development as development that "meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."
