Our world is a reflection of our past actions: Tahira Kashyap
To mark World Environment Day (today), Tahira Kashyap will be taking to social media to upload a video where she’ll be sharing a few tips to raise awareness about environmental conservation. She believes that at a time when natural disasters are affecting the entire world, one should take the onus to protect Mother Nature. “Our world is a reflection of our past actions. Floods, global warming, virus and cyclones are bombarding us on a daily basis. To have a better future, we need to make correct choices in our present. That’s why I thought of sharing a few tips which are doable and aren’t out of the ordinary,” she shares.
She asserts that one should acknowledge the symbiotic relationship that they share with the nature. She says, “We’ve a tendency to think that we and the environment are two different entities. But it’s about time that we realise we’re one, and the nature is screaming that out loud.”
Talking about her pledge this World Environment Day, the writer-director says, “I pledge to be more compassionate. When we’ve compassion brimming inside us, we’ll become more considerate.”
Kashyap opines that an increased dialogue is the key to making environment a part of our daily discourse. “By communication and having an action-based life can be a good way of encouraging other people to talk about it,” she says.
She adds, “We all have the responsibility to take care of our environment and respect it.”
