Economy, Environment and Governance - The Trilogy
This affects to each and every human being on earth, still we are silent about it. Enough, Be wise.
The Amazon Fires and the Iceland losing its biggest glacier and Indian Economy struggling to survive while Trump refuse to cut emissions, All of these are interrelated and result is that world economy is getting affected.
How does Amazon fire at miles away from me affects my salary ?
The Climate change has led to the floods in unimaginable places, while heavy construction and rapid urbanisation has paved way to led to land utilisation for free flow of rivers. The Assam Floods leading to death casualties plus extra construction work to repair everything. The Embankments made involved lot of politics among niche contractors, focusing more on profits rather than suitable strong structures. These operative expenses without thinking the importance of one time fixed costs by construction companies has led to investors flew off. The recent case of NBCC has proved this.
There are many cases of PSUs not operating on efficient rates.
Further, with depletion of Fossil Fuels, crude oil prices are sky high. At the same time Automobile Industry is moving towards to downfall. This was certain to happen. Since the Crude Oil and automobiles are complementary goods, with limited supply of one, will sure to affect the demand and prices of both. However it can be argued that this is temporary phase until oil & gas is replaced by other form of energy(I.e Electric Vehicle). To that counter, while this shift happens, there are hidden cost leading to inflation. Hidden cost involves the our Rational expectations and our budget allocations.
The recent about to be recession is a result of not treating the environment well. Amazon fires increasing the overall carbon levels and decrease in oxygen levels in environment. Brazilian govt refused the grant from. G7 nations saying its a colonial game. Emissions increase by Brazilian govt required them to pay for the violation of emissions as by Kyoto agreement of United Nations. Thereby Export and Import by Brazilian govt to India will get affected involving mostly price rise.
There are numerous instances to show the energy consumed in any part of the world has a price and energy is a global resource, it affects everyone.
Economy and Government
Our RBI governors resigning back to back in pressure is the utmost example of how these two are related.
The Modi” might be good orator but recession has hit. Let start with examples, Since the Modi government came to power, Jio has flushed the telecom industry. Reliance Industries must have got a strong support from political parties. Suddenly jio industries provided free free things. Is this even real ? To a common man it’s a hard maths to understand the behind the scenes. First of all Reliance Industries is not an NGO to provides free services. In one line, Humara paisa Hume hi diya gya and Hua kya jio dhan Dana dan Aur Modi hai toh mumkin. Even after 100 times notifications from RBI, NPA of PSU kept on increasing and nothing was done. Time to time bail packages were provided to National banks, which is the complete waste of money. Economy needs structural changes like more flexible land and labour markets, speed Justice system, salary cuts in PSUs etc. Govt is ignorant to these and continues to take loan form RBI. While this could be a thing were loan money given as bailout packages is just a way to whitewash a money which is actually being used for huge election campaigns.
The Ram Mandir Issues is burning.
It’s the govt that is politicising things and we are same idiots to follow them without question. Suppose All major lands under temples, mosques and church is replaced by trees in them, how it will affect to human beings, irrespective of religion.
Too much to say, less to hear! Government rules the economy. Choose wisely.
Environment and Governance
While media is blind toward climate related matters, Politics is making the things worse to worst. Trump Government’s steps to exit from Paris Agreement on climate change was a huge matter of importance. USA held most of the powers at UN, Also issues of developing nations like India are ignored. It was a big step whereby US chose to not to Adhere emissions cuts. But it has affected all. Politics has worsen the digits to infinite.
Speaking of Modi Government, National Green Tribunal has clearly stated that government are ignorant of the environment related issues. More focus is paved in luring people during elections, Operating inefficient PSUs, and favouritism towards corporate whose only motive to exploit resources and gain profit.
Climate change is a global concern. While developed countries like USA, whose per capita emissions are quite high as compared to per capita emissions in developing countries. Still politics rules and everybody is affected.
There are quite a large examples to show the ignorance of govt towards climate change. Politics is a reflection of its citizens. Choose wisely. What actually happens is common is concerned about money only. Fair enough but everything is not free. We can get air purifier by working but won’t get clean air when we step out to work.
Government will only be sensitive to these issues when we will be! Choose wisely !! Raise voices, ask questions where are money being spent and pressurise the govt for so. If you won’t do it now, you will suffer in future.
Government is accountable to people. No matter how much politics it goes, Raise voices! There is a Trump in everybody’s life. Raise voices to ask questions. It’s not revolutionary or anti national. It’s there duty to answer you and you have obligation to raise questions. Citizens or human being who questions signifies atleast they are alive human beings. Rest are dead bodies floatings.
