Conservation is power

our glaciers are receding.. our forests are shrinking.. our water is getting polluted.. and our air is filthy.. lets resolve to fight for survival... individually we can do a lot.. people may start with smoking less.. turn off ur monitor while u are not at work, use electricity judiciously, depend more on nature and less on technology.. talk less on mobile.. ur microscopic contributions can hav macroscopic effect.. and please please celebrate dewali without sound..its a festival of light after all... just mind it.. we can afford to let ourselve die, but CANNOT AFFORD TO LET MOTHER INDIA DIE

Gangotri Glaciers- Shrinking Away

The Gangotri glacier located in the Central Himalayas is receeding at an increased pace every day. The rate at which the glacier shrunk has been around 61 feet every year from 1935 for the next 35 years. But presently the rate has almost doubled, thanks to the emission of green house gases and the resultant Global Warming.
The Gangotri Glacier almost 29 kilometres long and 2-6 kilometres wide feeds the Gangatic plain to its south, which in turn is the home of a population numerically equivalent to that of the European continent, whose lives are solely dependent upon the river.
