Abstract:
Regeneration capacity of the earth is so high but we are using less and destroying more. The reason behind it is that many times non-essential facilities are assumed as essential needs, for which people are continuously producing different things which increases pollution in the environment. In educational point of view when a school is situated at such a place where air pollution and sound pollution are high, it affects the students in such extent that can create mental haze and further delirium. A study highlights that even a short term exposure to pollution is associated with acute physical symptoms and mild psychological disturbance in healthy individuals. Mental Haze is commonly known as “Mental Fog” or “brain fog”. Mental Haze is the state of mind wherein people have conflicting views for what they do. What is wrong or right? Perception of a person becomes hazy. In such a situation people do not perceive things clearly means mental pollution exist there and is harmful. Long term mental haze can cause serious mental illness like Delirium. Pollution can control when “the needs of today will meet without reducing the quality of life for future generations” which is known as sustainable development. Brundlendt (1987) proposed better solutions for ecological management. “The direction of development should be in such a way that without disturbing the nature of ecology development must be continued and human being must get better life”. The better direction of development is that which we can transfer the natural assets to the next generation in the similar stage as we got it from our past generation. Such a development is known as sustainable development. It will be helpful in controlling the pollution which in turn will solve the problem of mental haze in students. The present paper will throw the light upon sustainable development and how it will solve mental haze in students.
