REMINISCE 7 - 2020 BBA Annual Magazine
The essence of "Reminisce", the annual students magazine, and The School of Business and Law, is to interact, communicate, inspire, and inform the community of readers — within and beyond the University. The seventh volume of this magazine celebrates the uniqueness of its concept, and diversity of its writing, along with the visual presentation, thereby maintaining its accuracy, healthy discourse, and editorial balance. It is not only endeavors to reflect the values and the quality of the institution and its people but, It also stands for the act of indulgence in the enjoyable moments of the past. Every article encompasses the high spirit of the members of the school of business and law and reflects their ideas and experiences in the current situation. The theme for this year’s magazine, “The Global Stage,” metaphorically and literally illustrates that we have been the biggest audience of the “global shows” going on the world currently – from nature’s fury to the applause towards a better, gender-fluid world. The theme is an eye-opener to the real world and communicates the amalgamation of the threats and opportunities imposed by it. We hereby present to you, “the stage of life” that calls out the protagonist in us for a better, fresher tomorrow. It celebrates the beginning of the “new normal” optimistically. As the Editor-in-Chief, on behalf of Business@NUV, with unceasing support from the SBL family and the management, I take immense pride in releasing Reminisce Volume 7 and hereby declaring it a success. The efforts put in by every individual to craft this magazine and to make sure it reaches the acme is highly commendable and praiseworthy. We take pride in presenting this from the platform provided to us by Navrachana University, for which will be ever grateful. Lastly, we thank our readers, for the time you vested in our magazine. This is a gift from the "Class of Quarantine" (Batch of 2020) to all the potential readers with a lot of takeaways. Rushi Vyas Editor-in-Chief - Reminisce v7 Batch of 2020

TheSixth
Extinction
If the entire history of the earth was
converted into a 24 hour day, humans
have been on the Earth for only 1
minute and 17 seconds before
midnight. That's how microscopic we
are, in terms of the wider view of our
planet.
Interestingly, biodiversity is not spread
uniformly around the world – the coral
reefs, the tropics, the rainforests – all of
these are biodiverse. But think about it for
a moment, what else do you know about
these areas? Social issues. In these areas,
poverty is paramount amongst people. So
when one thinks about biodiversity, one
should also consider that – where some of
the richest biodiversity exists, is also where humanity suffers the greatest
problems. This turns out to be an important issue in conservation. And why
should we care about it? There are some practical reasons behind it. We can
probably divide them into two categories - selfish-utilitarian and aestheticphilosophical.
The utilitarian concept deals with the direct use of plants and animals, that we all
are aware of. And the aesthetic purpose deals with the contribution to human
well-being through elements of biodiversity. All of these things underpin the
existence of human society and the cogs that make that machine turn are made
of biodiversity. Without biodiversity, there is no future for humanity. You may
pause to consider how much of it we can afford to lose before that machine
stops working. This means that the fashion of the moment is to try and put a
cash value on biodiversity, to illustrate to politicians and policymakers just how
important it is.
The diversity of life on the planet, at any given time, depends on how fast new
species evolve and how fast existing species go extinct. In the past 500 years,
nearly 1000 species have been recorded extinct. That does not include thousands
of species that have disappeared under the radar, many of them before we even
know they exist. Extinction is generally invisible, yet each extinction removes one
break from the ecological foundations of this planet. Eventually, entire
ecosystems begin to unravel.
