Mr Khanna said that the problem of pollution and environmental degradation is not limited to any one nation. It transcends the boundaries and calls for a concerted effort of all the nations. We must all be conscious of saving the earth from the gnarls of environmental pollution and check global warming and climate change. The future generation must inherit a green and clean earth.
