Way to go.

How we can solve the environmental problem created by us and our ancestors? Most of us do know the answer to this but how many of us follow them. We should make it a lifestyle. Environmentalism will be what we have to incorporate in our life. I think going green is really cool. Just we have change few habits in our daily life and bingo we will be reducing a lot of carbon from atmosphere each day each minute. If you have started then don’t think yourself to be alone. That’s what I used to think before. But there are lots of people just like us. Perhaps our number is less. But we are still stronger than the majority. Because we can accept change but they can’t, a change which could be for the betterment of our tomorrow. I tell you all that one day will surely come when we will adjust ourselves to the new world very well but the so called majority they will never be able to do that. So there we come to end now. I am leaving you with few tips. And thanks for visiting. Do come again. Do tel

Electri-City

Today our life in cities are inseparable from electricity isn’t. T.V.s, PCs, mobiles, laptops, refrigerators, and blah blah blah. Just everything runs on electricity. If you still say no. Then think about the time of load shedding and if you don’t have any backup power source. Now if you think no. Then I must say you are really a good guy. But electricity is runs my PC, lights up my house and charges up the phones. So I love it but I also love to use it judiciously, to save it for future. But unfortunately not everyone loves so. Electricity is really a valuable and important resource in today’s world. We should therefore use it wisely. Save when not needed and if possible then produce too. I was doing my Environmental Education project on electricity production in India when I came to know that India produces much less amount of electricity than it needs. So we signed N-deal. Our leaders assured us that it will lead us to a better future. Not against it at all. But for how many years

Krazzy Pour

In last four years which I spent in Kolkata. I have never experienced such a horrible kind of rainfall. Just three days before pujas it stopped. Half of the pandals were left, half of the idols were left. Streets full of water. Thanks to god that there was no rain in those three days. Everyone enjoyed a lot. After all it is the biggest festivals of Bengalis. 3 Years before I didn’t believed all those prediction by scientist and geologists about changing rain pattern. Every thing was just going good. But it was monsoon it used to rain and then stop. But it was 27 July 05 which changed everything. I still remember the hooded streets of Mumbai, and all those who died there. That year Supreme Court added Environmental Education in our syllabus. And I started to recycle and reuse paper. That was what I could at time. But now I believe and search for any such warning given by those people. They have recorded a rise of rain fall in eastern India annually whereas there is a decreasing trend i

Food Force

Food it is the most important commodity in our life even today when we are living in 21st century. 16 Oct that’s today is the World Food day. Ironically this year world faced one of the worst global food crises. World food reserve went down to there lowest point in 25 years. Food prices soared. This triggered inflation in several countries from Egypt to China. Even riots in Mexico and many West African governments fell when they became unable to give foods to there people. UN even predicted that this could result in rise of terrorism and crime. But still we made through it at least sitting here in India, I feel that. But still when papa says that food prices in the market are touching the sky. I feel there are still a lot of people who are out there not getting the proper amount of food they should get. Different people from different parts of the world cited different reason for this crisis. Some said it is the over consumption of developed world and under consumption of developing wo

The Unfinished Task

2006 Aman was watching television. He was 15 years old and loved watching TV especially any programme on latest scientific issues. Then his mother called him. “Aman stop watching TV now go to the bed you have to wake up tomorrow very early. I hope you have not forgotten that your school is reopening”. But mummy let me see this. Then I will go the bed. I promise you” prayed Aman. “Ok! What are you watching?” asked his mother “They are showing a transcontinental railway tunnel system. This will become functional in 2099. Then it could transport nearly 1500 peoples per trip at a speed of 6000 km/h.” explained Aman. “Wow. But what is the use of watching this. Not you and I will be alive to see that” “But mummy I think we could all live. Because medical is improving at such pace that till the middle of this century average life expectancy will be 120-150 years’ said Aman politely. “Don’t just joke” “No, I am not joking. Just see the facts. In Stone Age average life was less than 20 years, i
