We are a group of students, pursuing our Master of Science Degree in Environmental Sciences from the University of Pune. Just a few days back, the Open Space poster on our college notice board caught our eye … It announced boldly, “Don’t just talk about climate change-Walk the talk.”
That's when we sprung into action. This seemed to be the perfect outlet to channelize our thoughts and ideas.
We decided, that we needed to get out there and do something concrete.
“Climate change”, “carbon emissions”, Kyoto Protocol”, “conservation” are big words. Fanaticism and activism are sometimes necessary but, for common man, simple lifestyle changes are all that it takes to reduce his carbon footprint.
So we are going to try this experiment set up by Open Space .We want to spread the message and show the world that going green is easy and fun and that there isn't anything arduous and strenuous about it!
Supporting each other along the way, we will record our experiences, write about diverse environmental topics, simplify certain environmental issues, and also create awareness regarding environmental problems that the world is facing.
So board the Train....chug...chug....
