Yesterday at a mall. One asked me to write a message on Environment Day. I might win a prize for the best message. I wrote one. Wondered if I really care for it though. Tried to oversee what are those initiatives that I practice (other than writing a blog, sms or mass mail). Found it very hard to list. I have not stopped taking projects that are not green or, are not executed and designed keeping environment in view. I always thought that efforts, however small make a difference and should be appreciated but, I have never been able to convince myself on this. People who are learned, people who understand, people who could contribute ... basic list includes engineers, architects, developers, equipment manufacturers, factory owners etc. etc.. I find myself responsible in the front of the Que. Otherwise also is it not that I take a step forward first and then start advising others? or start preaching altogether? This is so strange that I find engineers with all the lessons behind them to know what are the precautions to save environment are and, how to go about them. India has such millions of professionals and yet, they have to be given a message. This indicates that theory X still is valid and, education is bookish. Confucius said - It takes courage to know what is wrong and, yet do it. I think we are courageous. I have taken my step towards the cause, hope everyone has. We really need to worry about our offspring more than seriously. I am eager to join hands with professionals who would form a community with this norm and, while impressing upon others to take steps for the cause, will commit to practice green policies only. Let us pay back.
