Abstract

Flora and fauna are the actual trinkets of the crown named "Biodiversity". We are running in the 21st century, the year 2020 and, of course, undergoing the lockdown period. The reason is best known to all humans', i.e., "unwarranted and undisciplined" interference with the system and norms of Mother Nature. Growth is a positive notion in the fields of mathematic and economics, so as the population is increasing, but there are no positive results of the same. The snowballing greenhouse gas emission, pollution, destruction of biodiversity, animal killings, maiming, frequent floods and droughts are the worrying alarming consequences of our mismanagement and interference. The national and state governments are already hawking with unprecedented challenges; the population will not stop intensifying, so what should be our modus operandi in attaining the sustainable development goals? The urban cities are subjugating the leading sources of the earth; urbanization has affected every area of developing and developed countries. In this present scenario, we only have our villages and sub rural areas, which could maintain the biodiversity, flora and fauna. However, the problem is of proper skills and guidance. The only unit which can work from grass root level is “Local selfgovernment” it seems that union and states are more formidable and have long-lasting effects on people's minds. Still, the grass-root government is getting into the grips with most questioning jobs. The United Nations has always focused on the independence of local self-government because the trio of environment, sustainable development and local self-government are the rock-solid pillars of the future we want for the globe and Asia Pacific region.
