Editorial
Environment and human beings are too
interlinked with each other as we are part and parcel of it. As human beings
are shaping into super beings with help of science and technology in this
process new pollutants are invited into environment on regular basis. We are
just postponing and changing the dumping areas which eventually occupying
environment making more complicated to clear. This means we are at high risk
from those pollutants as they are occupying in all levels as we are unable to
sustain far with all these dumping of pollutants. Environment is not advancing
as fast as pollutants to degrade them through natural process and retain to
normal condition. Products obtained from living organisms, have simple
mechanisms to dispose and degrade them into useful forms. The dumping of nature
as carbon deposits from millions of years stored in earth, are now released
again into atmosphere by us. If we go on in this process, we will pay the price
to our own acts. We know this from the eve of origin of life i.e., 3.5 billion
years ago with many new combinations of chemicals and their fluctuations, kept
many organisms at bay. Cyanobacteria released oxygen approximately 2.5 billion
years ago, as oxygen, which increased slightly become a pollutant took its toll
by killing many organisms. If we go through five mass extinctions occurred in
past, we can clearly see pollutants are playing major role in creating
disasters for living organisms. In Ordovician-Silurian mass extinction, carbon
dioxide was sucked into rocks which caused glaciations causing many organisms
death. In late Devonian mass extinction, Sulphur dioxide occurred as acid rains
causing many organisms to perish. In Permian-Triassic mass extinction also
called great dying may be caused by release of carbon dioxide, greenhouse
gasses as methane which lead to global warming which indirectly lowered oxygen
levels leading to mass extinction. In Triassic-Jurassic mass extinction, carbon
dioxide levels were quadrupled making the mighty dinosaurs to death. In
Cretaceous-Paleogene mass extinction, most of the species wiped out due to
increase of components like Sulphur. From the above we can figure out if
pollutants not treated, they will take their price wiping out organisms how
mater big they are without showing mercy or forgiving. Now it’s necessary to
think and analyze how vulnerable we are to fight with pollutants. It is need of
hour to find new solutions to clear pollutants with help of our co-organisms
like plants and microorganisms to battle with pollutants. It is well known
truth that microorganisms are used from dawn of humans, for our own benefits in
food and spread it to medical applications, now we are extending them to
degrade the pollutants. Microorganisms are living biotechnology laboratories
which are boon for human race to modify and use them. These little soldiers can
be genetically modified and use them for just to degradation of pollutants at
all levels. They had lived through very harsh environment from their origin and
have a great deal in using some of the pollutants as their substrates. Already
there are so many microorganisms involved in bioremediation and biodegradation process,
in these lines microorganisms should be used within control to protect us from
the pollutants. We need to prepare not only for to clean up our pollutants but
also be ready to clear any type of pollutants when occurred abruptly.
There should be many discussions and debates on the environment issues through
which innovations and new findings will come out, without discussions and also
without proper guidelines there will be more harassment to health of
environment which ultimately takes it wrath on humans. We should now build up
for living in this world with sustainable development and the scientists should
focus on the environment pollutants to dispose them fast without much suffering
of the environment. The advancements of Science and technology can’t be sopped
as that’s what makes the humans to survive with less energy and happily
comfortably but with this, we should also make new discoveries for the
pollutant disposal.
