5th June is the Environment Day - one would find articles after articles in the newspapers as to what is happening to the environment, how we are spoiling it, how we can save it and so on.
I feel the only sure shot way to save the environment is to reduce consumption. Reduce consumption of what? Well, everything. How about using a little less water or a little less electricity or a little less fuel and taking a vow today unnecessary things will not be bought. I know what I am suggesting will not be liked by the people in the business of manufacturing or selling, I know by doing this the GDP may come down but what is more important - to see business growing or to stay alive.
How about telling your child,'do not buy this as it is not very important and you may save the environment a little?' How about the child, realising all this, saying to the parent 'Ma, Paa I can do without this?'
Share your thoughts - talk about it with family and friends. Think about the generations to come - what sort of world we want to leave for them?

i made it to th top 24 in gujarat round of lead india and i was knocked out, not beecause i was incompetant bt coz i said something wh the jury didnt like, bt i stick to my guns.
i feel that saving water is soooooo simple that even a child can be encouraged to do it.
i , in my own way do post ways and means which are common and simple on orkut and by mail to my friends-ways in wh water can be saved.
if all of us get together then i m sure a lot of water wh goes waste can be saved.
my son who just cleared tenth board has stopped using a petrol based 2 wheeler since the day th e price rose. he says that he is contributing to the environment by reducing pollution, saving foreign exchange by not using petrol,and improving his health by using a cycle instead of the kinetic!
He is saving my money too! I salute him for this. no one told him to do this. he felt it right.thats all!
