When the global leaders due to ego and ignorance make futile attempts to control nature for wealth and power, they disturb nature’s harmony and cause irreparable loss to the economic, social and the cultural environment. The increase in the number of earthquakes, cyclones, floods, landslides and rise in the atmospheric temperature etc fails to instill wisdom into the minds of those leaders. In the last two decades the world community have witnessed devastating natural calamities, avalanches, droughts, earthquakes, floods, heat waves, landslides, cyclones, volcanic activities, wildfires, tornadoes, thunderstorms, dust storms and tsunamis, etc; those calamities leave a devastating impact on economy, culture and social life across the world. The mental trauma, displacement, rehabilitation, poverty, hunger and unemployment etc follows, add to the loss.  

Extreme weather events cost $2 trillion globally. Over 765,000 people died from more than 9,400 extreme weather events globally. The natural catastrophes caused significant losses of $12 billion in India in calendar year 2023 according the Global Insurance Swiss Re. India is an emerging economic power in the world and it cannot afford to sit quiet. The use of bio-degradable utility and decorative items by the world community will significantly reduce the effect of global warming, save lives and livelihood of people. It will reduce the dependence of the nations on other countries for a wide range of factory made items.
