"The Earth today is in imminent danger ".. those are not just the words of eco-warriors any more but the considered opinion of most eminent scientists studying climate change and it's effects. It is becoming increasingly obvious that nothing short of a complete planetary level Global rescue will save it from an environmental cataclysm of dangerous climate change induced by human growth. The evidence is all around one, if one's eyes are open.

It is time we stopped the heedless pillage and plunder of Mother Earth's finite resources and learned to live in harmony and balance with Her. We owe it to our future generations. Paraphrasing from the Native American proverb - "We do not just inherit the earth from our ancestors, we also borrow it from our children."

The first step to that, is Education in 'Bhoomi Dharma'
(the Dharma -right thing to do, for Bhoomi -Mother Nature)

This section features environmental issues: from sustainable development, to global warming, alongwith other current issues that affect all of us - from what we do, to what we don't do and what we should be, and should Not be doing!!
