YOUR ROLE IN SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability has become the key word in development, energy production and every other aspect of progress, because anything that is not sustainable will ruin the chances of coming generations for a comfortable existence on this earth. We have to hand over to our progeny what we got from our ancestors, if not in a better shape, at least as we got them. You have to think of the coming generations when you do anything, just as you love your children and work for their comforts.

Wanton use of fossil fuel and other conventional sources of energy not only bring havoc in the form of atmospheric pollution and climatic aberrations, but they are actually depleting all resources at a rate that will never be pardoned by our future generations.

As a responsible member of the human family, you are duty-bound to stop this plundering of the earth's resources and the degradation of the environment. You can do more than your share by using renewable energy sources like the sun and the wind and doing all you can to optimize energy efficiency in your home. You can also participate in programs that popularise and spread the message of such non-conventional energy sources in your neighbourhood and your community.
