Industrial development / financials and Nature are mutually exclusive. The biggest commerical hub or street in any city do not have even a single tree. Mankind's next expliotation of the nature would be Uranium ?

I beg to differ. Your statement is a little myopic - does not go beyond Indian Cities. Take New York City for example - arguably the Financial capital of the world. You can find trees in most places and there is the huge Central park occupying acres of land in Manhattan. Not just NY - Across the developed world you can find this everywhere. Even in Brazil - another developing nation like us - you can see how much environment in given importance to.

There was provision of parks, empty space, trees everywhere in these mega cities. But our politicians bought those big chunks of land and had to make big buildings so that they can earn money to sustain and feed their family(which wud have died otherwise due to starvation). Hence no trees in any city of india. I wonder, in delhi so many illegal buildings were demolished, but why no one filed case against the local MLA Or the concerned officer who allowed those constructions.
