True if we generate less amount of plastics or use at least half the amount of what we use now a lot of toxic waste and pollution can be reduced. But we have to share this thought in our country with a 1.25 billion minds which I am trying to do through various fora. Many have shared this article and it has been again shared by…[Read more]

I also think a lot like you.
We ought to waste less, and not throw garbage, except in the garnage bins.
Segregation, Sorting and proper utilization of different types of waste- biodegradable, fruit/veggie waste etc could be turned into big business if we all think seriously and collaborate.

That in itself would be a great achievement and one lifetime is not enough to do this as per what I know. God is like the river of life who flows through different individuals and people try to…[Read more]

Man creates new things without realizing the effects of the same on the environment as he finds using them convenient and creates a industry to run and manufacture new things which are created with no thought to the aftereffects of creation. Life was very good when I was young as I would not find plastic as I find it strewn all around…[Read more]
