The Earth has enough for everyone's need but not for everyone greed

The Earth has enough for everyone's need, but not for everyone's greed. In the village of Meghalaya the tribal community lives with peace and safe in the surrounding environment, with great ease the needs are being fulfilled by Nature and, society is living with ease, where as the another life of individual in developed country is exploring for critical minerals and mines, for the growing demand of electricity and rise in consumerism in world. The Mother Earth provides resources for both, but at same time it hurts her due to greed of Human growing demand. In above story it presents us two picture of society which utilize earth for their purpose but in different manner which has large scale implication on Human as well as Mother Earth. In this essay we will see why the statement was given by Mahatma Gandhi.

Its meaning, importance of need and greed for everyone? Its implication? How to ensure that we act in manner which will ensure peaceful living and without harming Earth and progress of our future generation. Lets start with question what are needs of everyone? For Human as from ancient times to todays Modern Economy we rely on Food, Water, Shelter, but due to recent technological advancement it expanded to Digital connect, Mobile and Gadgets has became part in 21st century. Needs ensure that natural resources are utilized properly in equitable manner, such that access to all including the animal and other parts of ecosystem. As seen in Forest ecosystem as nobody is there to control utilization of resources but still whole ecosystem remains intact. For example of forest economy the tribal are worth to mention, they adopt as per environment, make their needs suitable as per local environment and live a peaceful life. The story of Halley War represents us classic example for how needs of Human are satisfied by Earth itself. By using traditional knowledge he created "Living Bridges" across river in Meghalaya area to fulfill needs of society.

Society as whole can guide individual about to distinguish between need & greed, and its implication in long term. The difference that can create large impact on earth, The "Sahyadri Vanrai" Foundation are has truely found the need of an hour by planting thousand of Trees, across Mountain in Maharastra region are helping the ecology to restore from the greedy Nature of society and its development initiatives. Development initiatives are not itself right or wrong it depends on intent, moral reasoning behind it. The requirements of society or mere a greed of some section of society. The famous case of Niyamgiri Hills shows us this difference of need vs greed by striking down Vedanta Project Supreme Court held that needs of Tribal will prevail over greed. Even at National level also policies intent for fulfilling needs but due to its faulty implimentation leads to Greedy Nature. Development for Nation Bhutan lies in peace, harmony, coordination with environment, on other side USA are moving towards Energy Hungry, controlling the resources over world. Now lest lets ponder on thought that does greed means? Why greed is considered as harmful for self as well as Earth and its implications. Greed is growing demand of individual, society, or Nation which fuels its action which impact environment. It also include the "Materialistic World" which is in constant search to fulfill its Greeds by degrading environment at large. Greed impact Environment due to unsustainable use of resources. As stated by Assisment Report 6 of IPCC that at current rate on earth the average temperature rise will breach limit of 1.5°C due to insufficient measures taken by countries against use of fossil fuel, energy consumption and growing Modern Life style. Apart from this it has also created unequal ground. The rising inequality is also impact of Greed as human life style is being far different in Africa as compare to Europe. The Greed of Europe is burning the Africa, the unsustainable exploration of Minerals by Europe, China to fulfill Greeds of their impact needs of native African. The Passion of Greed corrupts the system and vulnerable faces its impact at bottom end.

Greed of individual focus on generating self wealth. As idea of wealth of 21st century is moving around Material wealth rather than combination of both Material as well as Spiritual wealth. For example India as country stands 93 rank in Corruption Perception Index as published by Transparency International. Now seeing both Greed & Need and its implication, we need to inculcate values, system to ensure that how to balance both Greed & Need and what is way of living. The individual by following principles of Buddha, Vedas, which suggest about minimizing needs, efficient use of resources to ensure that future generation will also can taste it, can live peaceful life. The Prime Minister provides Mantra of Mission 'LIFE' Apart from this, concept of eco-friendly, innovation in energy sector rather than depending upon fossil fuels for needs, can serve the Humanity at large and uphold transition of "Human Being to Being Human". As done by moving towards use of Biofuel, in field of energy sector, the greed for oil is being reduced to fulfill needs of society. Moving towards Policy making the deliberate, well reasoned policy focus on local grassroot level needs rather than greed. The policy of PM JANMAN for tribal ensure that development of tribal should be based on their needs and not to destroy them for Greed of some section of society. Even the saint of Ancient past focussed on the Theory of Needs, as need ensure justice, equitable distribution of resources where as Greed fuels the gap and lead to unequal distribution, social evils in society. Looking back in history we see many examples of greed which at end led to distruction of Empire and today limited due to certain area. Greed makes individual, society, as Nation blind and the self requirement overturns other things, same happened with British Empire, Nazi (Germany) Hitler time period, the industrialisation which harmed the world with Climate change. Climate change is major problem in front of all of us. The Greedy Nature of Human Anthropocentric development lead to use of resources, in unsustainable manner. Today time has arrived to ensure sustainable development for Human society and other living creature need to fulfill. As a Nation following environmental friendly policy, measures and strict compliance of laws & regulation is required to ensure basic needs are at central point rather than greed. The Earth as whole supports Human, natural ecosystem with Forest, Animals. requires the Global International initiative, Motivation, Guideline to view life as development with environment and not as against Environment. Global Peace is that to act in collaborative manner to ensure focus on Needs and bridging the gap of inequality by innovation and coordination between nation, to act a whole one, like the previous successfull initiative of "Ozone layer" the effective coordination lead to ensure life for all, and focus on Need.
