Moral education in school

As formal education and academic knowledge increase, the moral training of children is decreasing. Presently, students have attained significant levels of knowledge and skills, but they lack the ability to communicate ethically. They often perceive parents as mere sources of financial support and teachers as mere employees. Consequently, the values passed down through generations are being undermined. Therefore, it is essential to address this issue.
In addition to teaching students’ skills and academic subjects, equal attention should be given to ethics and manners. This holistic approach will enable them to cultivate humanity and become not only skilled individuals but also exemplary and compassionate human beings.

Organic farming

The concept of organic farming in agriculture is not new. But we have to think about it anew. This is because the use of excessive chemical fertilizers and pesticides to feed the growing population in the name of the “Green Revolution” in the sixties has poisoned the environment around us as well as endangered our health. The land has lost its fertility due to continuous use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. The ecosystem has been destroyed. Many species of plants and animals are lost. So in this changed situation we have to look back. We have to think anew about organic farming.
Food intake is the first condition of our survival. Healthy eating is essential for a healthy and beautiful life. And only organic farming guarantees us safe and healthy food. So it is hoped that a new revolution will take place in agriculture with the help of organic farming.
