sir , all the episode are memorable... only thing is that it should also feature some info about workshops and voluntary work related to conservation in which students like me can participate during free time or holidays. we are all trying to contribute our bit by managing the resources but only direct interaction with nature can create love for its wonders and give us new ideas to save it..conservation can be done only if each and every one is a part of it. i am looking forward to a earthmatters camp where people from all stratas of the society can come together to teach and learn that earth matters....

How come bursting of crackers during Diwali routinely come in for scrutiny? After all Diwali comes once a year and bursting of crackers has traditionally been an essential part of Diwali festivities. How many of the affluent/middle class citizens even consider to think about the vehicular pollution they themselves create round the year by driving diesel personal vehicles, while waxing eloquent about pollution created by firecrackers on Diwali day?

Although my family prefers the anars and charkis and similar 'light' emitting firecrackers by choice, I would not want to rob the ones who like to bursting crackers of the fun for a day. But yes, the adults in the family should take the responsibility that the crackers are burst only under their supervision, and give due respect to the difficulties for the elderly and asthmatic neighbours.

Diwali certainly does not mean making noise. Actually it is a festival of light and sharing and comaraderie and the whole spirit gets lost in this deafening noise. At least let us identify a common ground where you can burst crackers (for those Diwali means crackers!!) so that people in two wheelers and pedestrians can walk safely. Already our roads are not very safe with potholes and slush due to Diwali rains - adding to this these crackers make you jittery and it prevents you from visiting your friends and relatives. Let us spread the light of friendship and not make accidents .We Indians are fond of noise in one form or the other. Either we play records at the drop of the hat or burst crackers in the name of Diwali
1. The most important of which is that it causes air polution. Today, we are forced to breath poor quality of air due to the air polution that already exists. In addition, we are already going through a phase of severe Oxygen crisis. In most cities and thickly populated areas, the Oxygen level in the air is reported to have come down to even 15% from the normal 21%. Scientists believe that, at 7% Oxygen level, people will start dying. A recent study shows that most of the health problems, we face today are due to the poor quality of air we breath. In cities like Tokyo and Newyork Oxygen cans have already started to be sold and people are carrying the same (like we carry water bottles)so as to be able to face any eventuality of Oxygen shortage. In this scenario, will it be wise to add to the polution level by using crackers and other fire works which causes air polution?

2. Crackers are a source of noise polution too, which many people cann't bear. My wife can not bear even a slightest noise. There are old and sick people too, for whom noise will be disturbing.

3. It's a wastage of money which otherwise could be used for fruitful purposes or in solving many problems of the society, the list of which is un ending in our country.

Exhibit of wild animals in Advertisements

In India many advertisers use wild animals on national TV to enthuse the audience. Is it not a crime? The use of animal gives a wrong signal to the viewers who consider animals to be for the entertainment of the masses. Already we are seeing a uncontrollable perilous environmental degradation from all quarters. Is it not high time that the govt curb the usage of animals in advt.

my son's interest in environment

It is very heartening to see enthusiastic parents like you who want to imbibe love for nature in their child.
As a child I think Salman can learn about the flora and fauna ( avian ) in and around his environment and in out country.
Once he starts learning, he will start appreciating the beauty of nature. As he grows old he will understand the environmental degradation caused by the greed of humans. Hopefully he will guide other youngsters to appreciate the beauty of nature.

The need of the hour…

my son's interest in environment

Dear Sir,

Reference my earlier email, sir i am once again requesting regarding salman's involvement in some or the other environment friendly group near talegaon dabhade.

Pls help as i want him to choose the right path from now onwards.

Rgds,

Shabana

Help us

...this year we collected 16000 plus garbage bags from Valley of Flowers and Shri Hemkund Sahib trek route and deposit all those near a collection point near Govind Ghat. We have to carry all that plastic garbage for recycling via motor road up to Dehradun, but we have no funds for that as we need at least 20 trucks to carry all the garbage. No body either so called Delhi based Kurta-Dhari Environists or Uttarakhand Govt. coming forward to help us. I know there are so many nature lovers bergeoni…
