		<description>Kathya,

Thanks for the idealets. Yes, practical sustainable green solutions are on our radar and you will find more posts on the same in the short run. 

Seeds of thought have been laid already for educational camps in schools (catch them young campaigns). Just keep track of our announcements section in the website for further developments.

In a nutshell, our activities would range from to online advocacy to eco-treks (a few camps have already been done), eco conservation seminars, educational camps in schools, no-plastic &amp; toxic-free campaigns, offline green campaigns, tribal development frameworks and colloboration with like minded communities to do a lot more that can reinforce the green connection in this concrete jungle.</description>

		<description>Hi,

I do read your posts with great interest. I have a suggestion and may pass it on to Ganesh too - I think you may want to include in your writings the issue of sustainability. About how you could include practical sustainable solutions to your everyday life that may make a difference. 

Perhaps, I am less cynical and believe there is hope for this society to come around. Also, advocacy should target your school age children because there is hope to train their mids.
