Are we going to meet the Fate of Dinosaurs?
There was time when Dinosaurs ruled the planet earth. Due to their size and power they had whole earth as their kingdom and they could do whatever they wanted to.
However on one unfortunate day asteroid stuck on mother earth and dust which was raised made all dinosaurs to die. They were wiped out from earth completely. They could not save themselves even though they had all energy, might and were kings of this place.
As such we used to find it difficult to believe that how life on earth was wiped out? When asteroid stuck at that time dinosaurs on earth must have made some attempt to save them. Either they would have run to place away from asteroid strike. Some of them would have gone underground or inside caves. Some could have tried to go into hibernation till dust settles down. Probably that time also 2/3rd of earth would have been covered with water and some could have taken shelter in the same.
But nothing of this sort happened and everyone died. We can now say that mankind has advanced. If asteroid is coming towards earth then we will know beforehand and everyone can be alerted. Scientists would be also able to calculate as to on which date and time it would struck the earth. They may be also able to predict exact location on which it would strike. Whether it is Pacific Ocean or Washington or Gaza strip. However the question is that in spite of such accurate information whether we would be able to save ourselves? Whether mankind with all its might and knowledge would be in position to diver this asteroid?
There are some other developments taking place on earth. Some of these are natural and some are manmade. Few such developments listed below.

There are some other developments taking place on earth. Some of these are natural and some are manmade. Few such developments listed below.
- Global Warming.
The temperature of earth, atmosphere and water bodies is rising slowly. This is making sea level rise every year and rate of rise is increasing every year. The land mass will shrink and and animals staying in sea like fish, turtle etc. would not be able to take this heat and would die. The rise in temperatures would lead to melting of glaciers which will cause floods all over.
- Air Quality
Human beings and all animals require clean air to breath. The permissible limit of dust particles in air is 80 ppm. Today cities like Delhi have ppm of 450 to 500.
Even in Mumbai where sea breeze is present ppm levels in Bandra-Kurla complex are 350 to 400. The life of people who are breathing such air is reducing. Small children and older people have developed respiratory problems. If we continue to burn our field and garbage these fumes produce smoke which is enough to raise such high ppm levels. If quantum of burning increases then situation would be similar to what dinosaurs faced.
- Corona Virus
Every now and then earth is subjected to some epidemic or other. Earlier it was H1N1 flu and now it is Corona Virus. We are totally unaware about how to tackle those who are affected and people are dying and media is only adding numbers in different countries and maintaining tally.
- Conflicts and Unrest
There is always some dispute about land, ethnic groups, religion, and politics and so on. This leads to conflict and unrest. People do agitation; there are riots and Police firing etc. Some times disgruntled groups carry out bomb blasts killing many innocent lives.
- Shrinking Water Bodies
Water is life. The availability of potable water is must for survival of human race. Today due to increase in population the water storages are depleting fast. Cape Town in South Africa is classic example when they finished stock of water and town became dry. In India also water shortage is no exception. City of Bangalore though has number of lakes have become toxic. There is no supply of potable water and many housing societies have to buy water in tankers.
- Climate Change
Today climate has changed. Paris has witnessed severe summer which local population is not used to. Certain hot places have witnessed severe winter. Rains have created havoc this season. Too much rain in short time. There is urban flooding. Cars have been washed out. Water gushing into buildings. The flooding has occurred in places which have never witnessed the same in last 100 years.
- War Weapons
There is lot of research in equipment used in case of war. Fighter planes, Helicopters, war ships, cluster bombs, atom bombs, hydrogen bombs, chemical weapons and so on.
Those selling these equipment would like them to be used so that more can be sold. But at the end only human race will suffer. It would be immaterial as to who wins the war.
- Forest Fires
In recent past there have been instances of forest fires in Australia, Brazil, and Amazon etc. In these fires lot of smoke is generated, temperature is rising. Many animas died and cities were filled with smoke.
Some of these reasons are manmade but some are beyond control of mankind. Only option left is to pray to almighty.
God bless all of us.
