In some ways we have wanted to believe that the environment is still intact; However, it is enough to pay a little attention to the colors of nature to visualize the change. Anthropogenic action has painted the planet in different tones.
Perhaps the isolation helped a little to clear the pollution, but the return to normality threatens to eliminate the light blue and turn the landscape into dull grays. Furthermore, after starting the fight against single-use plastic, the pandemic forced some of us to retreat with masks and gloves.
Now we have to recover the path, the footprint of the and the environmental crisis not only alters the balance of the planet. Looking at the colors of nature is a good way to realize the effect that human actions have.
Colors of nature and other connections
The snow turns green with the growth of algae due to high temperatures, the sky turns gray with pollution and the forests turn deep orange due to fires, etc. From the sea to the sky the change is visible and the key is to mitigate these effects with the aim of recovering the planet’s normality, just as we try to recover ours.
The before and after of these natural areas is the reality of many places in the world. We may not see the changes clearly if we are surrounded by huge cities, but natural landscapes are becoming increasingly rare and not seeing them does not have to be a reality for us.
The colors of nature can show both life and the loss of it. But nature is capable of giving us many things, among which we can find tranquility, above all, but also deeper and more intense emotions, depending on the area in which we are or the natural element to which we want to connect.
Take some time to look beyond the buildings around you, to look up at the sky and find its color. Nature is not only a green meadow with but it is also fire, it is water and it is depth in many aspects. Look for natural spaces near you, and if there aren’t any, take it as an opportunity to create a natural space full of color.
