First Monthly Evaluation Meet at BC.

It was 12th Aug exactly three months from the my 19th birthday and the date when I sent my project plan. And exactly one month from the date we left for Delhi. Delhi I miss you a lot. 12th is really very lucky for me. I got there way before time cos the train schedules are in a way that if I couldn't have gone at that time I would have reached way late. But thanks to Amitava I didn't got bored. Who with his No Independence Day theory kept me busy. And I am busy with that even today. Well all the guys came at time except Biphasyee Di, Tullika Di, and Vineet.
There was an Interactive session with R A Lohia from Indian Plastic Association. Thanks to Souran da. Then he gave the presentation about his project. Then Mr. Lohia talked about use of plastics. Rather proper use of it. I think someone from the south zone is doing a project on plastics. I think he could use the help. I am very sorry that I have forgot the name of the champ. But it remember it was I guy. And he talked about that during the Rastrapati Bhavan visit. Ok the presentation, and video given by him was very helpful. Even have taken it for showing to municipality. Hopefully they will like it. Apart from that Mrinal Chatterjee of the ICNL ( Institute of Climbers and Nature Lovers also joined us on the meet and gave us very useful and practical ideas relating to our projects. He has also promised to take us on a trip to Suderbans so that we can see how climate change is affecting the people at grass root level. Then came the time when she(our Project Manager) asked from us about our projects. All of us have done great job I must say. Well I really think I should do more. But the problem is that I have done a lot of things from the long term middle term goals but many short term goal are yet to be finished. It is because I have found that the situation have changed a lot in Municipality (due to the last elections) and have become much more productive than before for the Second Phase of my project. Whereas I have found it a bit difficult to do few of the short term goals related to my college. I have finished the carbon footprint calculation. Actually I have done the data collection but Ayan da and mychrollophyl.com will calculate it from us. Therefore I didn't wanted to sit and waste time. So I have started to prepare the ground work for the second phase. I have also made sure that I have proper support from the different governmental and non-governmental agencies for my project.
I must thank British Council here because of them our Municipality is taking my active help in doing the works relating to environment. So what could be better for a 19 year old than making decisions regarding his home town at such a young age. I have got such a confidence working with the political heads that I want to help in any place of any one of yours project where we may need to deal with them.
So bye

Climate Criminals

There was a seminar on Climate Change and Global Warming in the women' college. And most of the speakers lambasted repeatedly the United States of America for all the climate crises which the world is facing today. Thought there is not an iota of doubt in this fact USA is the biggest polluter on the planet today. But the exaggeration by them is simply the by product of the left (mis)rule which have created anti America but they them selves have done nothing less than what the Americans have done. Cos if they were so responsible to the environment then they could not have created a ministry of environment for sleep only purpose. If it were not the hard efforts and iron will of environmentalists under Subhas Dutta. The smoke spewing 2 stokes could still have been there on the roads of Kolkata to pollute. And we have seen that how reluctant the government was in this case. And the most recent one was the exclusion of Environmental Education marks from the class 12th score when going ...

F.R.I.E.N.D.S - can’t we be……….

“At the stroke of the midnight hour when the world sleeps India will wake into a new life and freedom”. These were the words which started a new era in world history. It created our very own great nation India and two similarly great nations on world’s map. (Well I am not going to give any history or geography lessons. So go ahead and read on. It is important coz it is the title of my blog. And my first blog is a bit related to it). But world never knew about those pieces which were remnants of millions of the shattered hearts of people residing in these broken countries. The broken heart which people carried with them made forget the definition of friends and friendship. But now the time have changed. We can’t live as our grand dad and dads have lived. With our young heart, passion and energy to do something new, can’t we remember what friendship is? Will we also foolishly maintain the same legacy of hate and distrust with our neighbours? But somewhere around a voice comes to me and s...

NSS “Special” Camp

After a long long wait came the special camp of our NSS unit. When we first read all the manuals and heard the briefing at the workshop from MR sir. Everyone was very nervous and thought the this is gonna be very tough job but thanks to our seniors it was lot less painful experience. I was made the team leader of team A and we were the best of all. We did the most number of survey and also gave PO a critical summary of the whole matter which was very helpful to him. We first divided our team into two groups. That is why we covered much more ground than others. In my group I must say that Lipika was the most hard working and most talkative. And Ismial or “E Smile” was our marker. We really did a great job. Guys thanks a lot. Then the last day of our camp Princi came so the journo ma'am too but when Chemistry sir (I don't know his name) came all the girl went mad every one was taking his photo graphs. Now Lipika asked Princi how to become Princi. What a question ain't it? B...
