Month: September 2019

According to a UN panel of scientists,waters are rising, the ice is melting, and species are moving habitat due to human activities.

And the loss of permanently frozen lands threatens to unleash even more carbon, hastening the decline.

There is some guarded hope that the worst impacts can be avoided, with deep and immediate cuts to carbon emissions.

This is the third in a series of special reports that have been produced by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) over the past 12 months.

कभी कभी ज़िंदगी से

थकान सी होने लगती है.

हारी हुई बाज़ियों के बीच,

तभी एक किरण चमकती है,

आशाओं… उम्मीदों….

और ख़ुशियों की.

जैसे बरसते काले बादलों के बीच

चमकती है सूरज की किरण .

Be patient

where you sit

in the dark,

the dawn is coming.

कभी लगता है…..

जैसे हम बमों के ढेर पर बैठे हैं

और कभी लगता है कचरों के ढेर पर.

अंतरिक्ष का भी हाल बुरा बना बैठे हैं.

दुनिया के जंगलों में आग लगा बैठे हैं.

सागरों को कचरादान बना बैठे हैं.

धरा से दिल भरा तो चाँद और मंगल

जाने के अरमान बना बैठे हैं.

हमारे पूर्वजों ने एक अच्छी ख़ासी,

हरी-भरी, साफ़ सुथरी धरती

और ब्रह्मांड छोड़ी थी.

पर न जाने दो तीन पुश्तों से,

हम इसके साथ क्या-क्या

खिलवाड़ कर रहे है….

और जब आज बच्चे पूछते हैं

आगे तुम क्या छोड़ोगे हमारे लिए?

हमारे पास कोई जवाब होता है क्या?

The world isn’t feeling so hot — emotionally, that is.

A new survey of people’s daily emotions found that, worldwide, reports of negative emotions — including sadness, worry and stress — have increased over the last decade, reaching a record high in 2017.

For the survey, researchers interviewed more than 154,000 people in 147 countries throughout 2017.

Participants were asked whether they had certain positive or negative emotions or experiences the day before. For example, for positive experiences, they were asked whether they felt well rested, were treated with respect, smiled or laughed a lot or enjoyed themselves the day before. For negative experiences, they were asked whether they felt worry, sadness, stress, anger or physical pain on the previous day.

From tree to chair without the carpentry: UK couple grows furniture.

WIRKSWORTH, England (Reuters) – On a two-acre field in England’s Midlands, Gavin and Alice Munro are taking sustainability to the next level: they harvest trees which they train to grow into chairs.

The couple have a furniture farm in Derbyshire where they are nurturing 250 chairs, 100 lamps and 50 tables. It is their answer to what they see as the inefficient and carbon-heavy process of cutting down mature trees to create furniture.

ज़िंदगी से चुराए

कुछ लम्हों से बदला

नहीं जा सकता मौसम .

पतझड़ तो आएगा हीं

जीवन हो या मौसम .

हाँ, मौसम-ए-बहार के

के आने के भ्रम में….

इंतज़ार में…..

कट जाते हैं पल ,

ग़म-ए-ज़िंदगी

का राज सुनाते,

शोर मचाते सूखे पत्तों के साथ .

 सूरज डूबते हीं,

अंधेरा घिरते हीं,

पूरे हौसले और ताकत के साथ

हर नन्हा सितारा टिमटिमा कर

अंधकार को हराने की कोशिश

करने लगता है.

बस यही सीखना है.

 

 

हौसला…..हिम्मत….शौर्य

जैसी ख़ूबसूरती सभी के अंदर हैं,

हमारे अंदर भी हैं .

पर

परेशानियों , कठिनाइयों से

जूझ कर हीं इन्हें पाया जा सकता है.
