Bees butter flies will be extinct no pollination so no fruits. everything you could you leave a carbon print on this earth. <br><br>That's a wonderful and an essential posting on the blog.<br> <br> I wonder how many of us are really interested and concerned about environment. I see many educated people dont even know that they are wasting natural resources. I see running tap till they brush or shave or wash utensils. Same while bathing. Why are these people not concerned? are they not educated? They are but the thing is this problem is not personalized. The effects are not immediate and intangible. If we loose a job we tend save money because the problem is personalized, effects are immediate and tangible but its not same with wasting natural resources. Same is the case with governments, see the response when there billions lost in stocks and economy hits recession, government comes with bail out packages, lends money does everything to get economy back on track. Last year there was an article in hindu and i was stunned to know trillions are lost due to environmental effects(excess rainfall, drought, health effects due to pollution) but there is no immediate steps from governments to save nature. Why as an individual i should be concerned. You don’t have to care about nature to save it u just have to care about u r pocket and u r family. Simple example: Rent i get for my home was 10,000 rs before now it came down to 7,000 why water shortage? Reason? No rains? Reason because we cut teak trees to give stylish look to out doors, windows, sofa. In a way this effects u r hard earned investments. U r family. People work hard to give everything to the next generation good education, lots of properties little knowing that they are not giving a good environment to live in which will effect their health, food supplies etc. so please use natural resources as you use your money. save natural resources as you save your money. we work hard so save our job, to get a job put a part of it to tell people the importance of nature. How do it? just look at your refrigirator and trash bag and see what you can do eliminate to avoid trash. souj you did a good job to list all the steps needed to be taken. Most importantly involving children. Change children to change a generation.Few are things i would suggest here. 1. shower: we save lot of water with little common sense to shut it off when applying soap. 2. i see people using lot of paper towel just to wipe of even wet hands just replace with towel just like in india. 3. carry a handkarchief 4. washing clothes use cold water option. use hot water only to wash clothes after you suffered ill health. 5. water from tap is absoultey safe aviod bottled water. if u cant then atleast use recylce water can and get it filled at retail store. you save money too. 6. recycle bottles u get 10 cents fot bottle also. 7. use printer only when necessary.<br><br>we also need a common platform to acheive this. <br> <br>aina appudappudu anpisthadi.. smoke cheste health paditadhi ani telsi smoke chestaru.. nature kosam alvatlu marchukuntara? sadukounnaodu ki chepina vinpichukoru.. sadu ranodiki chepina artham kadu.. lechama thinnama, office poyama, great andhra chadivma.. padukunama, month end lo pay check thiskunama, investment chesama.. <br><br>this a good topic to post u r comments. posting comments is a way to encourage author so guys post u r comments.sharathnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-91014538091632031882009-07-31T10:41:04.860-04:002009-07-31T10:41:04.860-04:00Guys there are lot of typos and in correct sentenc...Guys there are lot of typos and in correct sentence formation.. so excuse me for that.. i am lazy to do proof reading. souj nee post kante na comment e pedhaga undhi hehehehesharathnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335749302285581519.post-27024306887420515002009-07-31T10:56:15.236-04:002009-07-31T10:56:15.236-04:00100I clicked one of u r ads and this is what i lea...100I clicked one of u r ads and this is what i learnt. thanks<br> <br>A typical desktop PC with a 17-inch LCD monitor requires about 100<br>watts—65 watts for the computer and 35 watts for the monitor.
