Recreate....Re-Innovate.....Rejuvinate.

WOW!!!! Just didn't know that every second person in this country lives with the fear of something unseen happening. And that's truebecause just yesterday I had an old neighbour of ours visit us and there I had a golden chance to hear the gossip which had long ago left my ears and now I had my priviledges again. But the story this time was sad......it wasn't about someone but something. She went on to say, " this B.M.C. you know has dug up a deep pit in Andheri, just scared that when it rains my house shoudn't get flooded, I live on the ground floor na...." So I asked her where this digging work was actually happening only to get her to get a weird look(actually I butted into their conversation) and an answer which I wanted to laugh at but couldn't, she said,"its a little away from my house, maybe a 15-20 minute." Whosh!!! That cannot be a better presumption.

Moving on from this, one thing I would like to talk about is the monsoon's. Its one thing I guess everyone's waiting for and for the fact in anticipation. So the thing I want to tell is that why can't we do a little banking with rain water this year. This would in a way help us to know how to invest in something so precious. For example, just collect the rain water in buckets on your terrace or some place and use them in your daily works like the toilet. Please don't take bath with it. Reserving it now would at least reduce the daily water wastage we end up doing.

Speaking about water, I don't think we would get any good water coming in our houses if we don't take care of the waste going out of house. It has to some extent actually damaged the water supply in the way of the fluid from the decomposing garbage seeping into to the soil and mixing with the ground water. In a few years it could be dangerous for entire Mumbai who consumes this water. 

Hopefully people understand and know that I am not being selfish nor do I want to stay in Mumbai with this majestic city for myself........it is because if you do not do any thing now, within say 15 years we would see corpses rotting in the side walk and I think that wouldn't be a good sight for any one........so think again....

Water or the Doctor....which one do you choose?

We seriously are going to face water shortage in a few yrs tym. very gd article.
V need to look at other ways of producing energy.
Water conservations is a good start. Harnessing solar energy is not a bad idea too. The equipment may be expensive but in the long run, its gonaa cut dwn on ur electricity bill, so its worth it. My church has started using solar energy a year ago, plus they put up a Manure pit. I'm sure the church is gonna benefit by it.

We live more in a believe it or not situation now. Everything coming up now-a-days is a impossible kind of thing, and that mostly happens because we do not try to do something different.

Solar energy is yet to be revolutionised and I think we should be the ones doing it......hope to do it soon.
