Today we stand at the threshold of a major change in our approach to environment issues. Antarctica and Himalayas, the coldest and the windiest place in the world are now a source of endless concern and controversy. It is unique in every sphere and is a common heritage of all the human kind.
Politically, Antarctica belongs to every country in the world. Biologically, it is the largest wildlife sanctuary on the earth. Ninety percent of the planet's fresh water resource is locked here. The continent is a critical component in the world's weather system and an invaluable open-air laboratory for monitoring global atmospheric pollution. Antarctica is the only continent which is virtually unspoilt by any anthropogenic action.
However, as the world's human population increases exponentially and the resources become scarcer everyday, the governments and businesses are looking to Antarctica and Himalaya for new supplies of food, freshwater, biological and mineral wealth. Impact of green house effect and global warming with the resulting effect of sea level rise due to melting of Antarctic ice and Himalayan glaciers are becoming more and more serious environmental issues today. Therefore, Antarctica and Himalaya has become a central consideration for human environment and is becoming one of the great issues of the world.
We need to conserve these pristine ecosystems. It is time now to think of our future generations and for a sustainable development of Antarctica and Himalaya.Politically, Antarctica belongs to every country in the world.
