From early 21st century up till now, the boost of economic and social lives have exerted high pressure on environment; fresh air and fresh water have become the top concerning issues of the international debate and serious minds consider it as an issue for the global concern. Therefore, actions are supposed to be taken immediately in or order to stop such crisis from generating further impacts it will have on our lives.

As we all, very manifestly, do witness that the majority of the nations around the globe, as well as the chief groups are aware that the appropriate venue for addressing such planetary challenges are the United Nations, as the most universal and neutral international body in existence today.

Perhaps, currently the people in the Asia-Pacific region are four times more likely to be affected by the natural and environmental tragedy than those in Africa and 25 times more likely than those in Europe or North America.

Consider Afghanistan, one of the most affected countries in the world, economically socially and naturally. Environmentally, Afghanistan has been constantly the victims of various environmental crises in the last some years, particularly in the time of Taliban Regime.

We have lost our most precious mountainous sources of income; jungles and trees have been cut down and the large amount of wood have been transported into our neighboring countries, and even to other countries through them. Due to lack of proper governmental concern over the natural resources and mountainous trees, the country has lost its most mountainous trees and jungles for firewood purposes.

The stories in 2010 stated that while the region generated one quarter of the world's GDP, it accounted for a staggering 85 per cent of deaths and 38 per cent of global economic losses due to natural disasters over the last three decades.

Unless these imbalances are addressed seriously, people who are constantly exposed to disaster risk are more likely to remain poor and more vulnerable to disasters, perpetuating a vicious cycle from which it is extremely difficult to break free.

So, protecting our home (planet earth) is extremely important, because our each breath links with our environment, keeping the environment clean means saving our lives. It should be noted that the movement of keeping the environment clean starts from individual and it also must be on top debating priority for our government as well as the international community working on environment and natural recourse protection.

More than 35 officials from government agencies and regional bodies working with environmental protection discussed the implementation of a concept and an action plan to protect the environment during a roundtable meeting organized recently by the OSCE Office in Tajikistan.

Finally, to save our planet (earth) we must have a structured and coordinated implementation of the Action Plan to contribute to environmental developments and also have to effectively address the environmental challenges, we are steeped in.

Thus, we have to support the country's work to improve the environmental legislation, policy and security. On the other hand, the international community and relevant international organizations must also be working effectively to help enhance capacity of governmental officials to draft and implement environmental policies.
