Life: It just keeps on flowing.

          I am a married man (rather boy) now.For all who attended the ceremony thank u very much..And those who could not make it, we really missed u. I went to Jammu and Kashmir for my honeymoon and it was an awesome holiday.Sonal, my wife is an extra ordinarily innocent person with a very pure heart and a very friendly nature. Shes gelled very well with my family. And I am extremely glad to experience the new atmosphere in my house. Now that I have settled in my new life I get a lot of time to read and watch new things and know more about this wonderful world.
Actually a documentary moved me today.::: The 11th Hour by Leonardo de Caprio.
         The movie is about the ecological changes taking place due to Human nonsense. It includes a series of interviews of experts from various fields about Ecosystem - the damage done and various ways to prevent it further. Friends our ecosystem is under terrefic stress thanks to the wastes we are generating along with many different actions which do not at all seem bothered about our nature.
         It will cost a whopping 35 Trillion Dollars a year to do what our trees are doing free for us (Converting CO2 to Oxygen).And just to compare, the total annual Produce of all the countries combined will add up to only 18 Trillion Dollars. This means it is impossible for us to do without trees and it will get tougher as the number of trees come down.
         Some scientists say that even if all the Ice in Arctic melts it wont cause the whole world to drown.But a very important role that is played by the Arctic ice is that of reflecting back the heat from our planet which is getting defeated with every chunk of ice melting and this will lead to an exponential temp rise of our planet in turn.
         It is also approximated that a large tree can store upto 57000 gallon of water acting like a sponge in case of floods.So imagine with every tree cut down this 57000 Gallon of water will gush down in floods destroying more homes and ultimately get drained to the ocean.
         The crux behind discussing all this here is that we cannot just sit aside and watch our planet become a trash can of diseases and misery. We have to act. Each and everyone of us. The governments talking of some protocols and treaties are never going to be completely successful because thier role is always attached to a more heavier string called economy. So individual actions will have to drive this process of preventing further damage leave aside turning things around. As for my part to start with I have renounced the use of poly bags and plastic (crushable) bottles completely and slowly will take steps further to reduce my consumption of oil (crude or fuel oil) and plastic. Every one of you might be having some ideas as to what we can do individually or together. Please share it with me here or on my Facebook profile and we'll spread it further. Till then Good Night. Keep living.
