The theme of the year is - "Better Knowledge for Better Care" 2020 emphasize the need to improve the understanding of the world's drug problem and how in turns, better knowledge will foster greater international cooperation for countering its impact on health governance and security. Highlights why it's so important: 1) Drug addiction can land us in financial crisis.  2) It can destroy our relationship with family and friends. 3) It can severely harm our brain that can lead mental disorders. So on this day, various organizations, communities and individuals come together for raising awareness about the major problem that illicit drugs cause in the society. Stop using drugs.

Today's topic is somewhat different, it's about an unique plant: " Tillandsia Cotton Candy" 'Cotton Candy' is a hybrid cultivar of the genus Tillandsia in the Bromeliad family, origin: 1988 The Tillandsia Cotton Candy is an air plant , with a very different look & characteristics. This air plant is very striking & glow with green silvery appearance.

YELLOWING OF PLANTS

Image
Abnormal yellowing of leaf tissue is called chlorosis in which leaves lack the essential green pigment called chlorophyll. Let's discuss some possible issues: Watering Issues: The most common reason that plants leaves turn yellow is because of moisture stress, which can be from either over watering or under watering. Solution: If you have a plant that has yellow leaves, check the soil in the pot to see if the soil is dry or it's too wet & water accordingly. This plant of mine is getting Yellow Leaves due to over watering. One thing I might suggest in over watering case, the yellow color would be brownish yellow if you notice it carefully. Soil Issues:   The most common nutrient problem associated with chlorosis is lack of iron. High amounts of other elements such as calcium, zinc, manganese, phosphorus, or copper in the soil can make iron unavailable to the plant and increases the pH level. A shortage of potassium in the plant wil...

COVID-19 create a spike in Child Labour

Image
Did you know that some of your favorite foods may be produced with child labour? Take chocolate, for instance: 60% of its main ingredient "cocoa" is grown in the Ivory Coast and Ghana, where child labour remains widespread. We enjoy Chocolate without looking behind the dark secrets.  Let us take some more examples: Mica’s delicates is one of the pillars of modern makeup — and 60% of the high-quality mica that goes into cosmetics comes from India, mostly from neighboring regions of Bihar and Jharkhand, where child mining and worker exploitation cases are at verge. Roughly 70% of mica produced in India comes from illegal mines that are totally unregulated by the government. With no other industries in the region, many families have no choice but to continue working in crumbling mines under a new, informal organization sometimes referred to as the “mica mafia.”  Mica in makeup increases the shine. Almost all the makeups contain mica which is extracted by de...

SAFE ANIMALS

A pregnant cow’s mouth was blown off by an explosive while it was grazing at a field in the Jhanduta area of Bilaspur district in Himachal Pradesh. The incident follows the shocking death of a pregnant elephant dying of drowning after collapsing in Velliyar river in Palakkad district of Kerala due to starvation and exhaustion. Yes some days ago a pregnant elephant had been fed with pineapple fixed crackers & due to explosion she died. And here the pregnant cow was seen profusely bleeding from the jaw area and it is unlikely that she will be able to eat for the next few days. The cow’s owner Gurdial Singh sought help from authorities, demanding strict action against the culprit. Singh does blame his neighbour Nandlal for “intentionally” injuring the cow. He added that Nandlal has run away after the incident. I couldn't understand what's happening now a days. Human beings are becoming so shameless to do anything without concerning the results. It's make me excrucia...

STOP RACISM

Image
On May 25, 2020,  George Floyd , a 46-year-old black man, died in Minneapolis, Minnesota, after Derek Chauvin, a white police officer, knelt on his neck for almost nine minutes while he was lying face down handcuffed on the street. He laid there fitting for his life, struggling to breathe, and other police officers just stood there did nothing. Floyd, who was being arrested on suspicion of using a counterfeit bill, begged for his life, repeatedly telling officers "I can't breathe" .During the final three minutes Floyd was motionless and had no pulse.The officer is now been charged with murder. There is so much work to be done and must done in individual level and ultimately raise it to global scale. We need to educate ourselves, we all have the responsibilities to educate the world around us to end the hate within us. Let's together end this race war in US and also other parts of the world. We all live in different places but within a single place. The Wor...

MAKE USE OF QUARANTINE & DO SOME CHARITY

Image
Some thoughts of Swami Vivekananda which will make us realize how we can use this golden time. 1️⃣ "āϝāĻ–āύ āφāĻĒāύি āĻŦ্āϝāϏ্āϤ āĻĨাāĻ•েāύ āϤāĻ–āύ āϏāĻŦ āĻ•িāĻ›ুāχ āϏāĻšāϜ āĻŦāϞে āĻŽāύে āĻšā§Ÿ āĻ•িāύ্āϤু āĻ…āϞāϏ āĻšāϞে āĻ•োāύো āĻ•িāĻ›ুāχ āϏāĻšāϜ āĻŦāϞে āĻŽāύে āĻšā§Ÿāύা" By Swami Vivekananda đŸŒē "Everything is easy when you are busy but nothing is easy when you are lazy" ➡️ It means that everything is possible if we try to do it actively without giving up. And nothing, even an easy possible problem can't be done by a lazy person because he doesn't even try to work on it. Through this thought I want to explain that~ We should utilize the quarantine by being an active person. So guy's just don't be seated, dust off yourself and start to do something new. 😊 2️⃣ "āĻŽাāύুāώেāϰ āϏেāĻŦাāχ āĻšāϞো āĻ­āĻ—āĻŦাāύেāϰ āϏেāĻŦা” By Swami Vivekananda đŸŒē "Love & Charity for the whole human race, that is the test of true religiousness" ➡️ Through this thought I want to explain that~ Everytime giving donation to religious places like Temple, ...

THE EARTH IS HEALING TOO

Why our brain always stucks toward negative thoughts? Why we are always packed with the negativity? Yes, my question is why?? Why should we think? As we already know that everything in this worl has two phases: Bright one & Dark one. 🌗 Life is a cycle which revolves around this two phases. Sometimes we experience Sadness and soon after it arrives Happiness. We have to makeout that after every dark night the Sun arrives and makes everything bright. 🌞 So why shouldn't we just think of brightness i.e positivity 🎐 Yes, at least we can take some inspiration from plants they also need both darkness (night) as well as brightness (day) to survive.đŸŒģ Sometime it takes Sadness to know Happiness, Noice to appreciate Silence and Absence to value Presence.😃 Yes, I will prove that the Mother Earth is Healing and the brightness is just in her way to arrive.😇 Point no. (1) Humanity is coming together as people sing in Unison đŸŽģ "Poetry, Beauty, Romance, Love these are what ...

2013-2014 in western African countries like Guinea, Liberia & Sierra Leone Ebola outbreak caused 11000 of deaths and about 23000 people where effected. 2020 almost every countries of the world is suffering through Corona. Same microscopic organism with different features crippling the whole world. Why?? Why human a multicellular organism again and again falling in front of a single celled organism, the reason is the human itself. Yes the Human is the real jerk. How?? What are the reason then? 1) Its strenuous to make out people to stay at home, because of their Egotism. 2) Religious believe makes people look down upon Science. Since the outbreak of Ebola it has been very difficult for the doctors and the govt to quarantine the people because they believe some supernatural power will bring up them. Now also the reasons are same (Egotism & Theism). People have to make out that they are once a single celled, they have to understand that a single cell is more powerful than...

PANDEMIC VS. EPIDEMIC

Image
While listening or reading through news, you might come across two words Epidemic & Pandemic.  I am going to lay down some points which will help you to realise how treacherous is Corona. a) Epidemic:  Outbreak that has become widespread in a particular region. Example- Flu. b) Pandemic:  Widespread of disease across continents and many countries involve a large number of people. Example- AIDs, Corona. So our world is now at stake. This virus is spreading by leaps and bounds. This Pandemic can become more severe if we are not aware. And yes this Pandemic can terminate temporarily by maintaining Social Distance. 

VIRUS

Image
A virus is a microscopic organism that can infect living organisms and cause diseases. It can make copies of itself inside another organisms cell. Virus contains nucleic acid and a protein coat. Usually the nucleic acid is RNA sometimes DNA . What a complicate word, so let me first explain what is nucleic acid. Nucleic acid is one large chemical molecule where genetic informations are stored. So know let me explain what happens when a virus get inside us. When we human are infected by virus:-  When infected a host cell (our body) is forced to rapidly produce thousands of identical copies of the original virus. Coronavirus   Coronaviruses are a family of viruses that can cause illnesses such as the common cold, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). In 2019 the cause of Coronavirus originated in China (Wuhan). The virus is now known as the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The disease it causes is calle...
