When it doesn't rain in Abu, people take recourse to the most unreasonable and primitive means to 'bring' rains. First, they'll call for a complete 'bandh' (strike) against nobody. Second, they'll arrange for a community get together and perform religious acts like 'yagya' and finally, try to convince the rain Gods to come down and bless the already sinned 'Hills of Gods'.Instead of all this drama, what they, including myself, ought to do is, first, start caring for the environment and plant more trees and save the already existing ones from being wiped out from the face of this planet. Second, invest more on water harvesting techniques which will surely help in allowing water to seep in and increase the ground water level. Third, live the idea of eco-tourism. It's not a far-fetched concept at all. In fact, its time for every individual to know the benefits of such environment friendly concepts. Rain is dependent on many natural processes, vegetation is just one of them.But here we are, lame, lazy, primitive and full of stupidity. For a change, i find it self consoling that at least Bib B knows the right way of doing stuff. And as a usual thing for him, he still carries on upholding the Green Brigade banner. Seeing him mowing the lawns the other day seemed like a ray of hope against all adversity. At least the next generation would have better explanations for their descendents.
Preserve Nature, adopt a Tree.
