“The single biggest threat to our planet is the destruction of habitat and along the way loss of precious wildlife. We need to reach a balance where people, habitat, and wildlife can co-exist – if we don’t , everyone loses … one day.” Steve Irwin Environment care is the practice of looking after our surroundings and natural world. It is necessary to take care of our environment because we all are dependent on it and we also get most of the resources from it, for examples, oxygen, crops, fruits and vegetables, water and many more. Environment degradation can lead to global warming, flooding, etc. We can take care of the environment by conserving water, decreasing deforestation, following the 3 R's, picking up our waste and litter and curtailing pollution. We can also reduce the use of plastic by keeping a reverse vending machine in our societies or common areas.  We still have time to care for the environment. A small action can create a big difference.

Malgudi Days is a collection of short stories which has been written by R.K. Narayan and published in 1943 . It contains stories from an imaginary town called Malgudi .It has a ton of great  characters, but my favorite charecter is Ayah. The character “ Ayah ” is from the chapter ‘A Willing Slave’. Ayah means nanny in English. Ayah is empathetic as she looks after everyone and is very sincere towards her duty. She is a diligent woman and is very good at multitasking. She at all times stays alert and is a frank person. She also remains contented under all circumstances. Her character inspires me a lot.
