Emergency VS Urgency From a medical point of view, Emergency refers to threat to life needing immediate action to save life and Urgency refers to immediate need of action in a given time to prevent it from becoming an emergency.
How do we relate this to Environmental , Waste management, overcrowding , preserving nature , climate change issues ?
WH questions??? To find A /best solution in everyone’s best interest respecting the SOCIAL ,ENVIRONMENTAL & ECONOMIC valuesbetween environmentalist, conservationist , commercial service providers, local community and the visitors
“ The solution to our problems must come from within the country not from abroad “
