The science month celebration gravitates on the elaborately worded theme: Unravel the causes, Build the solution, Empower Science Clubbers to action. The month-long activities pose a challenge as well as a persuasion to scientific minded individuals. It comes at a time when our environment is under relentless attack from natural and man-made calamities. The emergence of previously unknown phenomena like the climate change or the dreaded dengue disease challenges us to unravel the causes. The greater impact of the celebration is the acquisition of knowledge for us to build the solution. It is not enough that we have an ample awareness or relevant knowledge. We must be action-driven to build the solution.
Building the solution seems to be the urgent
necessity in our environment today. Coping with disasters like floods needs
science for an effective solution. In the midst of political turbulence,
science can be a mitigating factor to sustain our normal way of life. But we
must not only be contented in solving problems. Our main goal must be to equip
ourselves with science to elevate our world into a better place.
As we
celebrate science this month, we must join in the greater efforts beyond just
celebrating. The cases are there, perhaps thickly veiled, but could be unraveled
just the same. Empowered, science clubbers could always take place on which to
stand, and move the world. In the end, the dominant power of scientific minds
would surely reign supreme over any mystery, malady or calamity.
