Dear Friends,

Namaskaram!

Amory Bloch Lovins  is an American writer, physicist, and former chairman of the Rocky Mountain Institute. He has written on energy policy and related areas for four decades, and served on the US National Petroleum Council. He has published 31 books, including Reinventing Fire, Winning the Oil Endgame, Small is Profitable, Brittle Power, and Natural Capitalism. In this issue, we have given some of his quotable quotes.

This month, our front page covers a very meaningful prose poem – My Soul is in a Hurry -  which is useful to all of us for contemplation and practising in life.

In happenings section, we have covered (i) Training on Composting technologies (ii) Commissioning of Bio-methanation plants (iii) Workshop on “Traditional Siddha Varma Bone Setting Practices” (iv) World environmental day celebration and Field visit etc.

In the wisdom section, Mansoor Khan, Author of the book – Third Curve “The end of growth as we know it”, says that we are racing towards a cliff of both economic and ecological collapse and thus  De-growth is a necessity for survival. Donald Worster, Author of `Deep Ecology for the 21st Century’ appeals for the strict preservation of the billion-year-old heritage achieved by the evolution of plant and animal life and finally Alan Herbert, Author of “Towards a Sustainable Future” wants us to be inwardly sustainable to create a sustainable world outside.
