Warming Globally – Where is the green?

The Copenhagen summit and the Himalayan glaciers melting only highlight the apprehension, global leaders are living with.
The earthquake at Haiti or the Tsunami, are apparent results of deforestation and global warming. Rise of concrete jungles, increasing carbon emissions, misuse of waste all, well contributing to the screw ups.
Millions are spent on election campaigns and another few on self promotion through posters and hoardings. And on speeches and promises that only last till the voting day.
Tigers soon will be extinct and so will be mankind. We need to act promptly. It’s time to come together for a cause to save you and I. Begin in a small way; begin tree plantations with your family, colleagues and friends.
Tree plantations, if an organizational effort; will go a long way. Let us not depend on our politicians, let’s contribute for our well being, it’s an investment with a guaranteed ROI.
Promote reforestation and Aforestation by gifting saplings on birthdays, anniversaries, housewarming’s etc. Your organizations Reward & recognition program could well be used for the right cause. If possible use renewable energy and use re-cycled papers, pens, pencil etc.
Carry your cloth bag for grocery and avoid plastic. Please dump the chocolate wrappers and tissues in a bin and not on the road.
Treat the city and country as your home.
If you could forward this to your HR teams to organize a reforestation/afforestation drive; it would be a great beginning for your tomorrow.
Folks! Tree plantation is just one of the many things you could possibly do to help our planet.
Enjoy your efforts in making this world green, enjoy life!
