Sustainability

" MOST PEOPLE RUNAWAY FROM YOU BECAUSE DEEP DOWN THEY WANT TO BE CHASED.
MOST PEOPLE BLAME YOU BECAUSE DEEP DOWN THEY KNOW THEY ARE WRONG."



a while ago , one of my graduates sent a blog where he lamented about sustainability, alarming ecological degradation and what kind of foot prints we are leaving for our future generations.
i normally a silent listener but this time i felt like telling him some thing. he was dear student of mine. here is what i said.
i invite comments:

keep the search on , mohan.

there are no easy answers. a lot is written about it though.
the good thing is that some of us are thinking about such issues.
thinking only leads to action. to proper action. a lot of worlds ills are due to action without thinking. [no, i am not trying to promote my 'thinking design ' book]

one cannot change the world overnight but one can change the world by starting the change with one self. let the action begin whatever small way in whatever way we live, the way we conduct our profession and so on.
you will not be recognized, your name will not appear on the times cover page and you might even be laughed at, but you did change the world and left little foot prints which only you know they were there.
is that not enough?

good luck
