EDITORIAL


 “And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.” 
-
William Shakespeare
 

Dear friends,

Very soon, we would not even be in a position to appreciate the value of the quotation. Trapped in a concrete jungle, we would only muse about what was, but by then, it would be too late to reverse the process.
                    Nature has always been an elixir to mankind, presenting itself to be a safe refuge, a breathing space since time immemorial. But today, it stands on the verge of destruction with its wonderful treasure trove of vegetation and wildlife on the brink of extinction. Men had turned a deaf ear to their silent scream, mindlessly exploiting its resources since ages; ungrateful and remorseless for his actions, waking up only when it threatened their own survival, in the face of rising sea level, global warming and water shortages.
             It is high time we pay attention to problems threatening the survival of the earth, and even though erasing the harm already done is impossible, we can do our bit to prevent it from further damage. The widespread felling of trees for paper production has motivated us into adopting this 'green' approach towards our journal. We are much obliged to all the people who have helped put the journal together by contributing their valuable thoughts and insights. 
We hereby present our online journal-‘NATURALLY YOURS’, a humble attempt to spread awareness among people and to show that, “YES, WE CARE”!!
