[www.keralites.net] Jadav Molai Payeng, who single-handedly created a 1360 acre forest. - Save this

"The snakes died in the heat, without any tree cover. I sat down and wept over their lifeless forms. It was carnage. I alerted the forest department and asked them if they could grow trees there. They said nothing would grow there. Instead, they asked me to try growing bamboo. It was painful, but I did it. Nature has made a food chain; why can't we stick to it? Who would protect these animals if we, as superior beings, start hunting them?" - Jadav Molai Payeng, who single-handedly created a 1360 acre forest.

We need more people like him, If everyone takes care of just their surroundings, like trees near your house and grow as much greenery as possible. Then the adverse effects of carbon-dioxide can be reduced to a large extent.

If one man can grow a forest, why cant we grow small forests(gardens) around us to help and encourage those who're doing it right.

Another link about this great man.

[www.keralites.net] Charge Your Phone By Sending A Text Message

Charge Your Phone By Sending A Text Message

At first glance, the title might sound to be an oxymoron of sorts. After all, if your cellphone is already low on power, why bother to use up more energy by sending a text message? Perhaps an explanation is in order. In a nutshell, folks who live off-grid are now able to pay for electricity to charge up their handsets through the simple act of sending a text message, and this was discovered to be the most affordable method to date. This is made possible via a solar-powered cellphone charging station which can only be activated not by a fingerprint or a retina scan, but rather, through a text message.

The amount of phones that can be charged depends on the local electricity supply, and London-based company Buffalo Grid wants to help out in this situation with this portable charging station. In Uganda, to juice up your cellphone can cost you around $0.20 after conversion, a huge amount for those who earn less than a dollar each day. This 60-watt solar panel will definitely be the more affordable option, not to mention greener, too, and sending a text message is definitely a novel idea. I am quite sure that you will not see this idea take off in first world countries.

Scrap Sethusamudram Project

The Government had some time ago petitioned the Supreme Court to revive the project that the latter had stayed in 2007. But now, since an expert committee constituted to look into the viability of the Sethusamudram project has made clear that the scheme is neither economically feasible nor ecologically sustainable, the Government has no leg to stand on. Yet, the Congress-led UPA regime has chosen to dismiss the findings of the committee that it itself had set up. Headed by noted environmentalist RK Pachauri, the committee this past Friday in its final report slammed the project that aims to build a sea channel connecting India's Palk Bay to Sri Lanka's Gulf of Mannar. This will allow large ships travelling from India's western sea-coast to reach the eastern coast without having to go around Sri Lanka, as they presently do. This, in turn, is supposed to save time and money and also boost Tamil Nadu's port economy. However, as the RK Pachauri panel and many other experts have pointed out, there are several loopholes in the design of the project. First, the proposed canal will only be able to the handle vessels with a maximum of 30,000 tonnes in deadweight tonnage. But most large ships carry more than that amount of weight and they will not be able to use the route. Second, the Government's claim that the canal will reduce 30 hours in shipping time is deceptive. Such a significant reduction in time will only happen in one route while in other cases, the travel time may increase as the shallow waters of the canal will slow down the vessels. Third, the tariff system as envisioned by the Government will deter many ships from travelling through the canal, leading to huge losses.

Then, there is the matter of destroying the Ram Setu itself. Also called Adam's Bridge, this chain of limestone shoals that links Rameswaram in Tamil Nadu to Mannar in Sri Lanka provides natural protection to the Indian coastline, and was in fact one of the biggest reasons why the States of Tamil Nadu and Kerala were spared the fury of the 2004 tsunami. If the Ram Setu is destroyed, these States will be exposed. Furthermore, dredging the Ram Setu will result in the destruction of fragile coral islands in that area. And that is not all. Under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act of 1958, there is also a question mark on the legality of tampering with the Ram Setu, which is considered by many to be a natural formation of hundreds of years. Finally, of course, there is the religious aspect which cannot be ignored. For Hindus across India, the Ram Setu is physical proof of the bridge that was built by the Hindu god, Ram's vanar brigade, so that the former could go across to Lanka and rescue his abducted wife Sita. The Ram Setu thus lies at the core of Hindu religious belief. By destroying it, if the Congress believes that it will strengthen its 'secular' credentials, it is hugely mistaken. The only brownie point that the party will gain by pushing through the project is the appeasement of its key ally, the DMK (which wants the project to go through), in the run-up to an election year.
