An awareness programme on the occasion of World Earth Day was organized today at Sri Ramakrishna Degree College.

The programme was presided over by the Chairman of the college, Professor Dr. Ramakrishna Reddy.

Addressing the gathering, Dr. Ramakrishna Reddy stated that the Earth is our mother and nature is our source of life; therefore, it is our responsibility to protect them. Conserving nature is one of our fundamental duties.

He explained that Indian culture reveres Mother Earth (Bhoomatha) and Mother Cow (Gomatha), and there is a traditional saying that a nation where they are protected and prosper is considered a blessed land. Every nation, he said, should safeguard Mother Earth and Mother Cow and ensure that the Earth remains free from pollution.

He pointed out that excessive use of plastics, indiscriminate felling of trees, overuse of chemical fertilizers, destruction of water bodies, and unregulated exploitation of natural resources such as sand are reducing soil fertility and agricultural productivity. If crop production fails to meet the needs of the growing population, food scarcity may arise. Therefore, he emphasized the need to protect the Earth, conserve forests, and preserve nature. He further noted that animals and birds are also integral components of the natural ecosystem.

Dr. Ramakrishna Reddy highlighted that the practice of worshipping Mother Earth and Mother Cow in Indian culture reflects profound scientific wisdom. Recognizing the importance of protecting the Earth and conserving nature, the United Nations declared April 22 as World Earth Day, which is now observed by 193 countries worldwide, including India.

He stated that the programme was organized to create awareness among students and encouraged every student to take responsibility for protecting nature. He remarked that if every individual plants one tree, India could nurture 1.4 billion trees and become greener and more prosperous. He concluded his speech with the message: “Let us love nature, protect the Earth, and remember that planting a tree means safeguarding the future.”

Speaking on the occasion, the Principal of the college, K.B.V. Subbaiah, said that protecting the Earth and preserving nature is everyone’s responsibility. He stressed that negligence towards the environment is unacceptable and that preserving our rich natural heritage for future generations is an urgent necessity.

He further stated that such programmes help students develop environmental awareness, foster social responsibility, and contribute to the nation’s progress.

Faculty members Dr. Lalitha Saraswathi, Muralidhar, and students participated in the programme.

The programme concluded successfully with the singing of the National Anthem.
