A New Hope Of Life For Our Ailing Education System

It is heartening to note that the Ministry of Human Resource Development (HRD), under the able guidance of Kapil Sibal, wishes to overhaul the education system in the country. It envisages replacing marks with grades (already been done by some Boards), having a ‘one nation -one board principle (an excellent idea), and bringing a tough law to prevent, prohibit and punish educational malpractices (very laudable, indeed).
So the air is seeded with well intentioned reform clouds getting ready to bur… Continue

An HFC has a particularly high GWP or a very long atmosphe…

This guide refers to ecosystems and plants in the USA. But, the methods to gardening can be applied to any ecosystem and the…

School Level awareness

I would like to address thoughts regarding global warming awareness vs. wildlife conservation, as it seems in general the public see these as disconnected matters. Of course some will concentrate on one as opposed to the other. But, I don't believe there is a separation between the two. This is a quote of a Native American Chief, from long ago-

"Humankind has not woven the web of life. But we are one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound togeth
