Oh Hiten,
Don't hit at India so much!
Already Temeratures have reached near boiling point on these boards.
There are many things that are still not right about India, after 60 blistering (read blustering and filibustering)years, but love and affection for our near and dear environment is not amongst them.
Only Indians, who throw Kachra out of their windows, yet had a chipko movement and only Indians are adept at recycling waste so very efficiently.
And, Thanks to Rediff we all are so much aware of our responsibilities:
Maneka Gandhi on India and global warming http://www.rediff.com/money/2007/may/14guest1.htm
Global warming is part of evolution http://www.rediff.com/money/2007/may/18guest.htm
Climate change reports not diluted http://www.rediff.com/news/2007/jun/04inter.htm
Climate change: The science is absolutely first rate http://www.rediff.com/news/2007/jun/05inter.htm
Climate change: We are likely to see growing water scarcity http://www.rediff.com/news/2007/jun/06inter.htm
Yes Indians are most concerned about global warming and the New Scientist's findings should not be scoffed at.

very true it is just like that rivers are drying fields have no crops I am able to appreciate this in my own village people are holding land just with an anticipation of real estate growth or things like that The yield of the crops have gone down formers are migrating to cities commiting sucides no income from crops dams are just being raised for individual state benefits we are now importing wheat
