Taking A Step In Protecting Goa – The Time Is Now

Imagine if the world wasn’t something we risk losing decades from now, but within our own lifetime. This is thought-provoking, isn’t it? The world that we see, hear and learn about everyday can lose its resources due to various reasons and mankind would have to bear the devastation. Pause for a moment, close your eyes and visualise Goa – A heaven where coconut trees are swaying by the breeze, the hues of the sky throughout the day that mesmerise your soul and the rich, earthy scent which draws your attention after the first rain. The vibe of Goa, known by us – the Sussegad Goans, the calm and leisurely pace that invites you to breathe and appreciate life’s small pleasures, can also be next in line to fade.

Nearly 27% of Goa’s coastline is severely eroded, endangering its shores, rivers, forests and biodiversity. Once a tranquil paradise, it is now facing a significant transition due to unchecked development, pollution and climate change. The choices made today by the people will determine whether Goa endures or fades, as the uniqueness of its ecosystems is under unprecedented threat. We have the responsibility to give back our motherland the attention it deserves in this crucial time and safeguard the unique beauty and spirit of nature for generations to come.
