WATER

Let us avoid 3rd world war on water

WATER – Let us avoid the possibility of 3rd World war on Water

I am concerned about Man’s behavior with WATER. I am concerned about Man’s misuse of plastic. I am concerned about Man’s inaction about GLOBAL WARMING. I am concerned about Man spreading pollution. I am concerned about Man wasting Planet’s natural resources. I am concerned about Man’s continued destruction of TREE. I am concerned about Man’s cruelty on BIRDS & ANIMALS. I am concerned about our PLANET. I am concerned about our UNIVERSE. I am concerned about MAN. I am concerned about Man’s inhuman behavior with Man. I am concerned about Man’s aggression on Man.

I am afraid the MAN WILL DESTROY OUR PLANET. The MAN will make it UNLIVEABLE.

Third World War on Water has already started in our homes, in our apartment buildings, in our villages, in our towns, in our countries and after some time, it will start on our planet.

Let me tell you a tale of water war in my apartment. This exposes an aspect of human nature/ behavior which will start the 3rd world war on WATER.

For last two years neighbors lived in peace in our apartment building in an environment of equality, mutual respect and consideration for each other, allowing all their time for their family and for their professional and creative pursuits.

Three months ago, a lawyer moved in our apartment on the top floor with a roof attached to it. He is connected with supreme court of our country, the top of our justice pyramid, where norms of justice get established. He grew up in the environment of the rule of law establishing institution, police. He is in the strata of society amidst the environment where law and justice bends to accommodate their desires & actions. He is aware of it and you can feel it in his behavior. He is very status conscious. I used to communicate with him through his driver. Sometime ago, I was told not to talk to his driver. These days, my communication channel is through letters, sent through courier. He started getting his roof washed twice a day and the entrance of our apartment building washed everyday to hide his requirement of washing his roof twice a day.. Washing is easier than wiping to clean the floor for the sweeper. Any sweeper will become an ally of such benefactors.

Monsoon rains failed to come on time in our country, this year. The State government requested and issued instructions that the citizens should avoid wasteful use of water. Those found wasting water will be panelized and their water supply will be disconnected. I am living on the ground floor. I started requesting the sweeper, every day, not to wash the entrance of the apartment building. Instead of stopping to wash the floor, one day he abused me. I had appointed this sweeper. He was always respectful. I guessed the reason of his changed behavior. I asked the sweeper to apologize for his behavior and told him that I will delay releasing his wages till he stops washing the entrance and apologizes for his misbehavior. After some days, the lawyer came along with the sweeper and entered my house shouting and ordered me to release the sweeper’s wages…..when he entered my house, I was bedridden because of my heart problem, my wife was recouping from hip joint operation and my wife’s sister was recouping from cancer operation. My guess as to who prompted sweeper to misbehave was established.

After some days, the sweeper realized his mistake and came along with his whole family to apologize and promised that they will not misbehave & won’t waste water in future.

Even after so many requests, to bring back an environment of equality, mutual respect for each other amongst neighbors in B-180, our society’s elite, the lawyer has not realized his misbehavior mistake and has not felt the urge to say sorry to three ailing senior citizens for his shouting entrance in our apartment along with the sweeper. The reason for aggression is that I asked the sweeper not to waste WATER.

Our elite are sure & confident that no authority dare to question their wasting water or any other similar disobeying of rules & regulations. The rules and regulations are for weaker sections of Society to obey. Anybody, pointing these rules & regulations to them is silenced by the elite with aggression or with provoked or sponsored aggression.

After this incident, I started fearing the possibility of such a person emerging as a leader on the world stage. Such people attract many weak conviction neighbors initially. The result will be 3rd world war on water.

If the lawyer elite realizes that there is no harm in saving the water & repents for his aggression, I will inform you. All of us will rejoice. The day this happens, I will begin to believe that there might not be a 3rd world war on WATER.

Theft, rape, dowry, property, murder, land grabbing, money, cheating, aggression, rioting, religion, society etc. are, mostly, the areas around which our justice system & the law enforcement system revolve. The areas like wastage of water, spread of pollution, adding to global warming, wastage of our planet’s natural resources or other such areas which will make our planet unlivable for Man or make Man extinct on our planet have not yet come under the active preview of our justice system & the law enforcement system. Our system of governance, democracy, acts but acts in a slow motion. Let us not get late. Let us change the ‘don’t care’ mental set up of our elite how sit on our justice thrones.

If the MAN will DESTROY OUR PLANET & make it UNLIVEABLE.

Will MAN be able to find another planet in the universe similar to Earth to migrate?
Will MAN be able to alter that planet to make it suitable for our living?
Will MAN be able to alter himself and his co-habitats to make them suitable for living in the found planet?

These are questions, difficult to answer.

Let us change our elites.

Let us save our Planet.
