balance of climate change and India
by saroj sayed on Jun 04, 2007 06:48 PM

God knows how biodiesel is going to help and what effect would it have on food security and environment. Everywhere towns and cities are expanding at the cost of agricultural land, forest land, wetland, open spaces...whether forests do/do not contribute to/alleviate climate change- as opposing experts argue, let us leave it on them-we can see that these do provide shade, help in controlling soil erosion and run-off control besides providing a variety of resources. Now also we export rather compete to match others in mineral exploration and ore export. We follow west, but not there good ones. In our cities we don%u2019t care about trees and open spaces. Our bus stands and stations are place for homeless, they don%u2019t have other place. If they sit at other places, simply they may die as no one would have time to visit them. Wastes are simply dumped here and there. Many people keep inside of their houses clean. Outside is the concern of government. Just dump outside of one%u2019s boundary. So matter is of public education, change of mentality along with finding way for meeting the basic needs of the poor. So that their needs are fulfilled in sustainable manner along with controlling grid/showiness of rich.
