Write a Morning Assembly Speech on how Urbanisation could take place without harming environment.
Good Morning!
We exclaim with delight when we see beautifully planned cities. Yet we forget the number of trees that have been removed to raise these skyscrapers. The need of the hour is to have planned urbanization keeping in mind its effect on the environment.
Urbanization is inevitable. With rapid industrialization and development, cities need to be planned with foresight and care. The lung spaces of the cities should be left untouched. Industries should be built outside the cities with proper facilities for disposal of waste. Satellite towns will help to prevent overcrowding of cities. Multistoreyed apartments and shopping complexes should provide for multi level car parks and every building should devote some space to a green patch.
To control noise and air pollution stringent measures should be taken. Vehicles should be put through regular pollution tests. Drivers should be penalized for honking loudly. Many areas should be declared silent zones. Loud speakers and playing of loud music in vehicles and public places should be banned.
Garbage should be collected regularly. It must be divided into different categories and disposed accordingly. Use of non-biodegradable plastics should be stopped eventually.
Car pools could be organized to ease traffic congestion. If there is awareness of the importance of the environment then there will be more co-operation amongst citizens. Building of flyovers could ease traffic congestion. Our school too can make a difference. Planting trees can become projects at school level for all classes.
A town planner's job is of great responsibility. It requires vision, insight and enterprise. Many of us present here could be potential, promising town planners so we should commit ourselves to building sensible, eco-friendly cities habitable for us and a blessing for our future generations.
