SELF DEFENSE

WOMEN NEED SELF DEFENSE.

Self defense is a life hack that both men and women can afford to. In the present times women needs self defense comparing to men. Statistics indicates that one in three women will be a victim of some type of violent attack in her lifetime.

 You may probably feel something right but it isn’t actually means that you are safe. Many of us fail to hear an inner voice within us telling us to be aware of something bad that is about to happen. But we realise it when we face it. If you have an opportunity to escape from a situation before it turns bad make the most of it.

 Expecting someone to come to your rescue and help you in all the situations is not possible all the time. But being prepared to face any kind of situation will be a better alternative to keep you aware and awake of all the dangers around you.

In the sense of a woman’s self defense, she should be strong both physically and mentally to face a critical situation. Just in the common thinking of a modern girl, she suffers from a disorder called Spotlight Syndrome. That is they always think that a spotlight called society is focusing on them which tempts them to give more importance to their outlook. This shows that they are not aware of their society. Outer appearance which attracts the society in bad sense is the reason for a girl to be victimised.

At present in the changing trends of the society it is important for each one of us to change ourselves accordingly to the changes of the society. But we should be prepared all the time to face the bad eyes of the society. As for that reason we should know some tricks to prevent us. Girl children must be trained from their childhood for self defense purposes. They should be properly trained to face any bad situation in life.

Courage is the only powerful weapon for self defense. Only if you feel discouraged by a demanding situation, it adds power to your opponent. So be bold to face all the situations in your life.

RAIN WATER HARVESTING.

   RAIN WATER HARVESTING.

Water is a major component in all living systems. Without water nothing can live on the earth. It is the true elixir of human beings, animal life and plant life. Water is becoming more and more precious as its supply continues to be scarce throughout the world. So water conservation has become the need of the day. Hope this blog will create awareness of ground water recharging by harvesting rain water.

Water scarcity: Rain water is the main source of water. Rain water gets into the soil and then reaches the water table. We make use of this ground water by digging  bore Wells. Recently the ground water level is going down at an alarming rate. In order to prevent this, we should harvest rain water. India receives good rainfall during monsoon. But most of the water falling on the surface runs off into gutters and rivers. It leaves only a very little amount of water to get into the soil. Thus the surplus rain water can be harvested.

Causes for Fresh Water Crisis: The world is heading towards a water crisis due to natural and man-made hazards. Monsoon failure, rising population, growing industrialization, expanding agriculture, irregular irrigation, over use of the ground water, lack of awareness in rain water harvesting,etc are some of the reasons for fresh water crisis. According to the recent report by the UNITED NATIONS Organisation, about  2/3  of the population will suffer severe water stress within thirty years.

Rain Water Harvesting : Rain water harvesting means collecting rain water and storing it underground for later use. Rain water, falling on the roofs of buildings and court yards, can be collected through pipes and stored in underground tanks. The main idea in harvesting rain water is to check the run off water. It helps to meet the increasing demand for water and also prevent the flooding of roads.

Role of Government : In our country, the Ministry of Water Resources is endeavouring to make rain water harvesting a part of everyday life in our villages and cities as a people’s movement. The Government of Tamil Nadu leads the Nation in implementing rain water harvesting programme. It has made it mandatory for all houses and buildings in the state. Realiszng the importance of recharging ground water, the CGWB(Central Ground Water Board) is taking steps to encourage it through rainwater harvesting in the capital and elsewhere.

Therefore rain water harvesting increases water availability by checking the declining water table. It improves the quality of ground water by diluting the salt content. It also prevents soil erosion and flooding especially in urban areas. Every individual should feel the necessity of harvesting rain water. It is the only solution to overcome water scarcity. In short, rain water harvesting is must for the sustaining of all living beings.

                     “Don’t sing  ‘Rain, Rain go away,

                      but sing,  ‘Rain, Rain come today,

                     let’s harvest you without delay. “
