The weather in Delhi has tried it’s best to make the festive season a bit hazy, but the spirits don’t seem to be slacking. There’s an atmosphere of celebration and people are really looking forward to the Diwali break.
However, what people are not looking forward to is the reality about environmental sustenance. There’s a lot of talk around green & sustainable energy and companies are driving initiatives around it (GE and Mahindra for example). However, the governments and individuals seem to be lacking the enthusiasm that is needed to push these initiatives wherein they would really make an impact. Too little is being done in few pockets. The need of the hour is to look at the menace of pollution at a war footing else we might be in a situation where we might need to wear oxygen masks to walk out.
