Burning the very ground we tread on!!!

IIPM PUBLICATION

Picture this – our descendants suddenly wake up one fine day in the summer of 2100 and scan through their monthly shopping list. And guess what? The item that weighed the heaviest on their pocket, turns out to be nothing, but oxygen cylinders! Oops! Did we sound strange there?

To be more direct, we are dealing here with a pressing question: Can we be assured of enough greenery and wildlife even two decades hence?

Sad, but as we catapult into a new era of economic growth, uncertainty, political tussle and the shifting of the equilibrium of power – which is perhaps the most ignored – is the very earth we tread on!
