EARTH DAY

EARTH DAY
Our actions:
Sustainable land development project is moving forward.
We created swale in our EA Farms. We hope after the rains we should increase the ground water.

Soon fruit trees, medicinal trees and other useful trees will be planted along with existing trees. We also thank people sending seeds in advance.

Trying to bring water to all parts of the land and we will achieve that soon. We will be using minimum water for the growth.
Soon we will be starting to rear animals.

BEES
As soon as irrigation is ready we will be making the land more and more green.
We are slowly but steadily achieving our goal - From Barren Pesticide Applied Land to Organic Natural Sustainable Land.

We Pray to God and Earth to make this project more success. We also welcome ideas from all who wants to contribute to Environment Well Being.
Thank You. Happy Earth Day.

Oil Drills and Wells - Should not spill oils in the Gulfs

Oil Spills are always major environmental disasters - As we witnessed recently in Gulf of mexico. As a Marine Estaurine Environmental Research Scientist, I am always fascinated by each and every part of the Marine ecosystems and how they are interconnected for the balance of the whole earth.

Now we started to dig more and more new wells in new areas of the oceans -
Recently 3 wells in - GULF OF MANNAR.
It is already a fragile environment with more than 3000 species of fauna and flora :
Environmental Impacts

The people (companies) who are drilling should take caution and do the necessary safety measures, so that Gulf of Mexico kind of spills do not occur in Gulf of Mannar. Apart from that all we can do now is Pray that Environmental disasters such as Gulf of Mexico oil spills do not happen again.

Alcoholism, Alcohol Consumption on Rise, Human Resources going waste

BRAIN, LIVER, STOMACH, HEART, KIDNEY and almost all organs are affected by alcohol.

CANCER, High blood pressure, several deficiencies and diseases are caused by alcohol.

As an Environmental Toxicologist I studied about the damages that alcohol can do to the human body.

So many articles on effects of alcohol and alcoholism are available in internet.

Even though these many dangers exist - young people tend to drink more and more alcohol.

Again due to the greediness of people , young people's life are put into danger.

This year's alcohol sale in TamilNadu reached 13 crore Rs.

Kerala also has equal amount of sales. Where is the youth going towards?

During my last visit to Tamilnadu and Kerala, I saw so many people flocking towards the liquor stores.

Whole society is turning bad, we are losing youth to alcohol monster and it is going to haunt us for long.

Human resources are going waste because of the alcohol consumption.

Hoping and praying to God that youngsters will take a new year resolution to quit consuming the monster - Alcohol.

Happy new year - 2011

Blood Boils, Hunger Death, God give Good Heart

I just read this in a Tamil newspaper.

In Tamil
In a city called Kanchipuram (famous for silk), one elderly person (90 years old)
could not take care of his handicapped daughter because of hunger. Both of them fainted
because they did not have anything to eat. The elderly person did not even know that his daughter
died because he himself was not in sense due to hunger.

To Politicians & Administrators of Tamilnadu:

Do something SOON -

You have the power to help people and please admin properly.

You have got enough money to build a buiding for supportless senior citizens. This would not cost much.

If you have a program for senior citizens it will create jobs and elderly people will be taken care.

I pray to God to give you the right heart to do atleast some good, so we do not hear such tragedies.

True leaders were there long back and they have guided you. Those golden words were never followed and these tragedies are occuring even now.

Senior Citizens"

But this type of info is for educated and good living senior citizens. What about the above support less senior citizen who died of hunger?

To youth of Tamilnadu:

Learn from these mistakes and do good to have wonderful future. Just dont be after money - you guys do good daily even if it is a small deed.

I know you good people are there and wanted to do something good. GO PLEASE DO!

True Sustainable Development for growth of good society

A picture says more than lots of writing:



While politicians steal (uncountable zero digits after a normal number) large amount of money, I pray to God that they do something good for their fellow mankind.

One more prayer: We dont need one more senseless war. Praying to bring peace for North and South Korea brothers and sisters.
