We mean Green

Its been more than one week since I have been selected International Climate Champion 2010. The quantum of my happiness cannot really be measured by the words of mine. But I think that I can express that only through my work for the world. Well I have found that all the things which I have got with the ICC 2010 are not for free. I have a really big challenge in front of me. The same is for all other 51 Climate Champs. I think we all should be friends what I have termed as Climate Buddies. And work together. I would love to help any one in any project if He/she asks for help. I will also love if anyone can contribute to my project. Because this world does not belong to me or you it belongs to next generation. And we as young generation must make sure that those high wall of hate which we better know as International Boundaries are taken down.
Even I have already got help from previous years ICC Ayan da (Sengupta). I have already started to make detailed plans for my project, got my Green crew ready, got financial and other backing from the college. I want to hit the ground running. The challenge is just too big but college’s administration has been very helpful. So I am confident about my project. Hope you guys are also making good progress. I wish you good luck for your project. So we are going to meet in Delhi. I am looking forward to it and I hope that I would be able to help some of you and I am going to get help from you. Lets all pledge that we all will do anything and everything to save our earth from Climate Change. So Be Green

Together we can

I liked the idea given by Sulakshana. Why should we all work separately and not together? After all, all of ours projects are related to climate change. We are just tackling it through different fronts. Someone is working for green building, someone in climate finance, someone in awareness etc. But my project has got best of all the worlds. So surely need the help of all you guys out there. But then the one of our Martian Mr. Raghav’s worry is very correct. What I think we should do is we should simply write about what we are doing and let the help flow in. All the things which Raghav says are true and practical. But then we have to make our project impactful. And this work cannot be done alone for sure. So we should focus our energy at not more than ten projects at a time. But surely we can pass suggestions and all to others. For example we in East Zone more precisely ICCs in and around Kolkata have 4 waste management projects so we are doing it together. I also have a waste managemen...

The Placement Season

Almost an year ago it was the same time of the year when most of us were at our peak of nervousness. We were job hunting madly. It was a mad house. Class notes were replaced by job details and then by SOPs. We all did end up getting jobs though. Infact half of us got job in the very first day. Which for many turned out to be a disaster. What I learned in this whole year was we do lot of things just based on peer pressure and want to conform to the social norms. Higher package, bigger brand the better. And in all that cacophony we forget to listen to our hearts. Two years in TISS prepares us for many challenges that we would face in future, yet we decide to settle for things simpler and easier. If we put ourselves together we can achieve so much for our country and ourselves yet we fail to realise most of it in time.Yes some do realise it before other do and take that bold step. The fact that I am writing this post thousands of miles away from home in a foreign nations speaks vo...

We are the Climate Generation

Today our world faces plethora of problems. And I believe that most dangerous are the environmental problems. Unlike others which people think can be solved by guns and cannons. These problems can never be solved in the same way. It needs awakening of the human mind. It needs us to develop the respect which we must have for our only living planet. Lives will be lost, homes will be destroyed our whole is on the edge of annihilation. But there is a silver lining to this dark cloud. From 13th to 17th July one of the brightest minds from this part of the world (India and Sri Lanka) were engaged in a training programme which is one of a kind. The training programme was organised by TERI and British Council. And all those brightest minds are International Climate Champions 2010. Part of British council’s initiative of creating Climate Generation. Those 5 days were one of the best days of my life. Not only did I learn so much from our wonderful trainers Laura and Sarah but also from my Climat...
