Red bulb blue bulb

 Red and blue set off for a march

Red stood staight and broke his back

Blue changed course and triumphed
Hail blue, who stood the test of times
The crowd cheered, gifts showered
Podium to hospital bed,
Rushed the extravagant Blue
'Thank you Red, See I won
Dream of my life
Righteous but still courteous
Owe you my life'
Red smiled
Passed his hands gently over the memento
Brass! he exclaimed
And brass is not made of cracked bones
A gentle smile
A kiss in the air
Bye

🌍 Embracing Sustainable Living, One Step at a Time! 👣

Dear Community, I recently encountered a common yet often overlooked problem - the sole of my running shoes decided to part ways with me.  🙄  Rather than rushing to buy a new pair, I decided to take a small step towards sustainability and repair them with Fevicol shoe fix. (I could have run down to a good cobbler, but I didn’t know anyone nearby) This experience got me thinking about the simple ways we can contribute to a more sustainable future. It's not just about big eco-initiatives; small, individual acts matter too.   Sustainability isn't just about solar panels and electric cars; it's about reusing, repairing, and repurposing in our daily lives. In this fast-paced world, we often forget that the most eco-friendly product is the one we already own – for the production of which, raw materials were used, processed in factories, transported and displayed in a shop until it was bought for use. So the way in which we as an end user can contribute is by prolonging its lifet

Risk Factors in Landslide Disaster Emergency Rescue

In the wake of the horrible landslides in Wayanad district of Kerala, among other articles and news, I came across a write up by a disaster management expert from the United Nation. A portion of his article translates roughly to 'An area that met with a disaster requires people with special skills. Even if there are small things to do (like serving food), some experience is required; such as the presence of mind to deal with disasters when they are seen in person, and benevolent behavior towards those affected by the disaster comes from the experience handling such situations.' this inspired me to give a thought on the the delicasies and risks involved in the Emergency rescue. Watch the videos running on news channels - you will come to know that the emergency recue after a landslide is no child's play. Landslide disasters caused by heavy rainfall pose significant risks to both rescue teams and affected communities. Understanding these risks is crucial for ensuring the saf

Paper Bags vs. Plastic Bags: Unveiling the Carbon Footprint

In the ongoing never-ending discourse on sustainable packaging, the environmental impact of paper and plastic bags is a subject of considerable debate. As environmentalists, let's delve into the carbon footprint of these materials Carbon Footprint Comparison: 1. Production: According to a study published in the Journal of Cleaner Production, the production of paper bags generally results in a higher carbon footprint compared to plastic bags. The energy-intensive processes involved in pulping, bleaching, and forming paper contribute significantly to this disparity. 2. Transportation: The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences reports that the transportation of paper bags is associated with higher emissions due to their bulkier nature. Plastic bags, being lightweight and compact, often result in lower transportation-related carbon emissions. 3. End-of-Life: A life cycle analysis published in Environmental Science & Technology Letters emphasizes that while paper bags are
