It’s the month of April, year 2010. A Sunday, I am on off obviously (Now that’s what I call an advantage while working for US), lying on my bed, thinking what can I do to make it happening, a true enjoyable weekend for myself? The IPL is on high, I can go out to watch a match, or may be go out for a movie, or hey, how about some cool shopping in any famous market of Delhi like Cannaught Place or Central Mkt? And then I asked myself, is it possible to go out of home? Though its 4’o clock in the evening, weather should be a little cooler than it usually is when noon is on its peak. But it’s not what the truth is, even if day is going to dusk, the temp in the city is around 43 deg Celsius, good enough to melt a whole pot, full of solid chocolate, or a statue of Wax. I don’t think I’ll go out and enjoy doing anything (even if I am not made of wax, but that much of heat actually hurts); I may rather end up lamenting myself.

Of late, it has become a fashion to speak about environment but do nothing about it. When there are any natural disasters, the world raises a hue and cry about it only to shut up after the dust settles and everything is conveniently forgotten Usage of plastic is so common and it is strewn everywhere. While there are no specific rules in place about littering, it is sad that most of the people who litter are the so-called educated junta. Common sense is not something that can be made as a study course so you can mug it up and expunge at the time of exams. How many times have you seen car windows coming down, hands emerging to throw something onto the roads? It is not my intention to bash up the rich for being callous, but is it too much to expect a little civic sense from educated people at least?

Born and brought up in Delhi, I have seen Delhi change, I have seen flyovers and roads being built, I have seen the metro link the whole of Delhi making every area accessible to the nooks and corners even. But with the growing development, I have also witnessed growing menaces ever since I gained conscience.

Just as charity begins at home, cleanliness has all the more reason to begin from home. Today, we talk about Global Warming and debate upon the reasons responsible for it at underwater conferences. This concern for environment is worth applauding no doubt. After all, awareness that our deteriorating environment demands our attention is the first step towards its conservation and protection. However, what needs to be addressed at first is not the global impact of the increasing pollution but a fact as simple as this – identify the roots from where the weed has originated and uproot it from there, to avoid its re-growth!!

5th June, famously known as World Environment Day. Established by United Nations General Assembly in 1972 to establish the Stockholm Conference on the Human Environment, World environment day aims to spread awareness of the environment and call for public and government attention.

With growing urbanisation posing environmental hazards for our country, the term ‘green activism’ is fast gaining popularity. Even in the past, people were raging fights to safeguard the environment but today the activism has graduated to become a popular phenomenon. Why do we need to shed our callousness and take up this cause seriously?

The AirPod is built and designed by Motor Development International (MDI). MDI is a company which was established by Guy NEGRE in 1991 keeping in mind the protection of the planet and for the development of zero pollution engines. Promotion and development of ecological energies, production of non-pollutant vehicle and system is the aim of the company.

I feel a slight chill touching the tip of my nose. I shiver and snuggle further into the warmth of my bed. I remember I forgot to shut my window last night before getting into bed. Later on, I got too lazy to get up and close it.

An organic lifestyle consists of using products, eating food and generally living a lifestyle, which is free from chemicals that are present in so many of commodities that we use to live life in the 21st century developed world.

“There is a sufficiency in the world for man’s need but not for man’s greed” – this statement from one of the greatest men in our country, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi clearly depicted the generation where mankind entered into a race for survival and in the process, destroyed, degenerated and dilapidated the environment around him. Now 63 years after the great Mahatma imparted his wisdom, the situation has become worse.
