Devastating Hurricanes

Charley, Frances, Ivan.....
were some of the hurricanes I experienced as a Floridian. While waiting for IRMA to pass through Florida as an Environmental Scientist I want to mull about few environmental issues

During  thunderstorm Fay I wrote about my experience, It scared me and now we are facing more powerful storm Irma. I hope and pray for people in it's path.

These strong oak tree branch is no match for strong hurricane such as IRMA.

They easily break away and can be very dangerous projectile.

Some of us deny that there is human induced climate change and we don't need to worry about it. These disasters are natural rather than human made. Yes I agree these are natural disasters. But I want to point out that we have increased the power of these, The more the temperature of water,  the more storm intensity, Also we have affected the coastal areas (coastal flora is gone) and built high rises on the edge of the beach. So when it hits, we have very high damages,



Sea Level Fingerprints - Visual Image.
I had opportunity to teach little kids about climate change and how it affects humans using a simple model


and work with lead scientists. The above picture is a simple model and the below picture is a real damages from Google Images search (coastal areas after hurricane IRMA):


This is the truth. 

Now we are at a point that we have to curtail the pollutants for the benefit of future generations. We cannot afford high category storms. For our part, we will be working on simple methods such as planting trees which would act as a sink for CARBON DIOXIDE and create awareness on this issue. So please act wisely and think about these deadly hurricanes whenever you have a better and alternative choice. 


Now we have planes that fly through the eye of Hurricane and get more and more data.
Hopefully with all the big data, powerful computer systems and softwares we can accurately predict the hurricane paths in the future.

Praying for millions in the hurricane IRMA's path. 
Devastation by Maria on Islands is more heartbreaking.

EA FARMS - PLANTING MORE TREES

Earlier Blog: Trees are important

Plant trees as much as you can.
You can place an earthen pot half buried near it and pour water. This oldest drip irrigation (watering) technique helps trees grow. .I recently read that used glucose dripping bottles are being reused for watering the plant and they act as a very good drip irrigation tool.

Planting Trees at EA FARMS

What we planted as a small sapling six years ago has grown into a beautiful tree.

Once the environmental niche is created, beautiful creatures from small to big enjoy the Nature @ EA FARMS:

Pachliopta aristolochiae, (common rose) - swallowtail butterfly

Euploea core, the Common Indian Crow Butterfly

Those best electrolytes help doing hard farm work


Where ever you are - oppose deforestation, plant trees, maintain them and create Forests. Trees are so important. We need them now and for future generations to come. Because the future generations need pure good air to breathe and slowly it is becoming scarce. Let us be more positive and plant more trees.

When (a drunkard) who is sober sees one who is not, it looks as if he remembered not the evil effects of his (own) drink.

In every Tamil movie they play that alcohol is evil and should be avoided, but the scene in the movie is that - the boys are drinking and smoking. I hope and pray that this changes soon. It has come to a point that someone should create awareness of this Arackan (Evil). I have been writing in my blogs about the alcohol and bad things (mainly health issues) that occur.

Published book (2016) on "THEEYAVAI THEENDATHEY" in Tamil lyrics

This book should be read by everyone in TamilNadu especially children. It should be given in every school in TamilNadu, so that young minds will get the needed and necessary awareness that is needed to avoid alcoholism. The book is also highly illustrated so that kids understands them very easily.
Here are some experts from the book from front cover to back Cover.

Let us eradicate this alcohol evil destroying our great Tamil Nadu. Alcohol Sales and consumption  has been increasing in Tamilnadu exponentially. It is really sad that it is the main income source to run the government. 

Alcohol is the number 1 killer in the World. Alcohol has destroyed several poor families because the earning member of the family who consumes alcohol dies early and leaves the family with widow, children and elderly parents. They are pushed to poverty because of this Alcohol evil. There are comparatively low number of alcohol rehabilation centers and ample help cannot be obtained from these centers. Our team RCHA (Resource Centr for Human Affairs) trained women on fibre knitting so they could be independent and earn by themselves without being affected by the alcohol consuming earning member of the family.

Hand Knitted - Eco Friendly EcoBags - Final Product

Also, through our cricket team in Pollachi  - MahaLingapuram Crciket Club (MLCC) we guide them by explaining - what are the evils of alcohol and its effects on their health before giving them training.



Let us join together, educate our children on the alcohol evil and support affected families by procuring eco friendly bags which supports them monetarily and simultaneously protect the environment.

India Summer Visit 2017

I had a chance to visit India this summer - 2017. (Previous Trip).

As usual wonderful time spent with family and friends.
Morning - attended cricket nets 

Me and Coach 
if the monsoon rains were not there.

Then visited friends, had lunch with them and had lots of discussions (Quality Time).


Mainly visited EA Farms.


After 7 years of hard work by my brother, it has shaped up very well.
He has planted more than 1000 trees and plants.
-
Monsoon this season has slightly helped. Praying for more rains.
It is shaping up as we envisioned. Still waiting for agricultural (utility - Power) current (We still did not get it after 7 years).
Solar power has cut the power dependency into half.
Agro-Forest area has some trees grown tall.
We have added VanaRaja and GrahmaPriya Chickens to the farm. They bring aesthetics and clean up worms that forms flies.

They are good addition to the farm apart from cows and goats.

Still planning to plant more trees. My brother is also playing an important role on
Organic Farmers Cluster

which includes a girl with MBA degree doing agriculture. I spoke to some of the members and they were very keen to produce chemical free pure agriculture products. I discussed about value added products. How they need to sun dry the products and make it as powder or oil, which can survive for longer period and fetch them more money.

Also my Scientist friend Dr. Hatha visited me and we went to the farm. He had brought some trees and we planted them.


During the middle of the vacation, we had a road trip to great historic temples such as Kanchi Kamatchi, Thiruvanamalai and Chidambaram Thilai Nataraja Temple. Great temples.


During this visit saw Cauvery which has the name Aganda Cauvery (Wide Cauvery) but it was Varanda Cauvery (no water Cauvery). Felt bad.
Still saw lorries queued up for getting the river soil (sand).
Most of these parts are covered by Karuvelam trees (Prosopis Juliflora) and plastic bags strewn across the land.

Highways were good. Some of them were even good as American Highways.
However the interior villages are still bad. Big pot holes in the road, No proper street lights and fundamental infra structure.
Indian villages are considered as backbones of India. So they must have all the basic infrastructure by which it will become the country envisioned by Dr. Kalam.

I wish and pray when I visit India next time these Villages will Shine brightly and I would say without hesitation that India has grown and developed as Dr. Kalam has told.

Until then we will do our part.
