Comparison of Amazon and Flipkart

Amazon is an international e-commerce company that is headquartered in Seattle, United States. Amazon started its business  operations in  India  in 2012. Flipkart is an Indian e-commerce company founded by Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal in 2007. Flipkart and Amazon are two of the biggest online retail companies in India.

 I believe Amazon is better than Flipkart to win the E-commerce battle because flipkart always tried to follow the Amazon footsteps . As we all know  , Amazon  initially started business in books and later on forayed into other products and flipkart follow the amazon . When Amazon started  its business  in India , Its gives  Flipkart and Snapdeal a run for its money. It launched the Indian operations under Junglee.com, a website that allowed retailers in India to advertise their products for free to millions of Indian shoppers .

According to the reviews of people Amazon customer service is much better than flipkart and and people are more certain of replacements and after sales services when they buy from Amazon. Even my own experience with flipkart is not very good as delivery of my product was 5 days late  and even one time I received fake product from the flipkart .

Even flipkart created it poor reputation in the eyes of law . As In 2012 , The government of India informed the parliament that it had asked the Enforcement Directorate to investigate Flipkart Online Services. In August 2014, the Enforcement Directorate claimed that it had found Flipkart to be in violation of the Foreign Exchange Management Act 

October 2014 Flipkart launched a promotion called 'Big Billion Day' with the intention to increase the popularity of their website by targeting a billion sales in 1 day. This, even though Flipkart achieved the target, led to public outcry and widespread criticism among consumers, competitors and partners, heavily damaging its reputation. Many users could not place orders because of high server load and errors which led to frustration among customers while Amazon never goes through this in India .

So in my opinions Amazon is better than the Flipkart according to my experiences .

Destruction of forest in the world of human beings means self destruction

Forests provide us the most vital element for our survival. Destruction of forests in the world by human beings means self destruction.

Throw som light with examples.

I completely agree that forests provide us the most vital elements and their destruction by human beings means self destruction. Forests provide habitat to millions of species of plants and animals and their destruction would mean that all these plants and animals will lose their habitat. As a result, the earth’s ecosystem and ecological balance will be largely shattered and the consequences of this will be felt by not only by plants and animals but by human beings as well since we are dependent on plants and animals for all our needs.

We know that forests are the sources of various foods we eat and various medicines we need. They help to stabilise the world’s climate, protect against floods and draughts and are also a great support for tribal people.

In spite of all these benefits, every year a certain area of a forest is cut and destroyed. The various reasons due to which exploitation of the forests is done are getting wood for timber, road construction, buildings construction, extraction of minerals and energy to name a few. 

Also, these forests are being cut as they are being used to make huge profits by various organizations by using these trees in construction and making paper. 

However, mankind soon needs to realise that there are very severe repercussions of destroying the forests. Cutting down of forests bring about severe climatic changes. The soil gets loose and it is carried away by the rivers and deposited on the river or ocean beds. The water level hence rises giving rise to floods in one area and draughts in another. For example, Indonesia has experienced several severe draughts in the recent decades due to the same. 

Cutting of forests also leads to an interruption in the water cycle thereby, causing an imbalance in the distribution of rainfall followed by soil erosion. Various plants and animals lose their habitat and various species become extinct.

For centuries together, man has been exploiting the environment to satisfy his selfish needs. But a time has come, where even the endurance of the planet is being challenged. Like they say, excess of everything is bad. If, we do not stop exploiting our ecosystem now, a stage may come where it may become impossible to repair it. The biggest sufferers in that case will be the human race since it is the human race that is dependent on forests for its simplest to most complex needs.
