Each falling tree should be transplanted.Make it mandatory.There is The tree act 1975 in Maharashtra state for transplantation of falling trees due to development work.50years/100 years forest can not be grown in desired time.In the era of climate chage and global warming transplantation of trees is need of the time.There must be a Central act.which will be effective in all states of India.With the support of machines transplantation is possible.Seedling and Sappling is not the solution of reducing forests and jungle.
All Commodity Boards which are made EPCs by including them in Appendix-2 are needier ones where exports is a side job, while EPCs are high profile and prosperous EPCs whose top office bearers rub shoulder with the Prime Minister and with ministers of Finance, Commerce, External Affairs, etc. When I was the Export Promotion Advisor of Coir Board, coir exports was stagnating, did not have a godfather in Delhi, its dominance presence was in the State of Kerala. All these were disadvantages. But there was Hon'ble Jairam Ramesh, who helped Coir industry by including it in all the Schems of Foreign Trade Policy, he helped us to conduct a reverse Foreign Coir exhibition by granting funds from Market Access Initiative Scheme and getting us promoters, for the first time, the Chairman, Coir Board (the only commodity Board) was made a member of the high profile Board of Trade, etc. It was largely due to him that the Central Government gave us Rs 99 Cr as subsidy in the Rs 243 Cr Rejuvenation, Modernization and Technology Upgradation Scheme. He was the person who taught CB to make export a catalyst to soical change. His comitment to Coconut sector was similar. Cashew, Marine products, Spices, Rubber,Tea, Coffee were the other sectors for which he extended considerable help. He was there every Saturday morning in Kerala. His commitment to Kerala sectors knew no bounds. I have always met him whenever I have travelled to Delhi with a handful of problems and found solutions because of him.

I have formed a cell of Environment at our builders association level as to make the developers aware is the imp task along with the customers. Eco housing is my hobby & i try to do as much i can on any of the available platform & that's why when i got this mail id i thought of writing u, though i even don't know whether this will reach to u ever! I go to schools, colleges, ngo's & try to share whatever i have learned as this is one subject which one may read in books but have to learn in field! I have worked for forests, military & each experience has become a case study in itself.
Sir, right from the tree cutting issue, to river pollutions in the cities to alarmingly increasing imbalance of biodiversity ,many issues needs proper policy & not just emotional decision for which our rul
