With GLOBAL WARMING topping the charts everywhere, be it the G8 summit of world leaders or the evening tea time discussions, its a threat posing to eliminate all forms of life from planet earth.
So what can we do ?
The answer is simple, just use our heads !!
Some simple designs and smart thinking can contribute in a big way. One such example is as illustrated above.
Using time tested techniques like rain water harvesting and use of solar panels to light one's electrical appliances, we can contribute in a small, yet useful way.
As the layout explains, use of various modern electrical fittings like CFL bulbs and motion detector lighting systems (as in elevators), one can cut down on electricity bills and also pitch in against global warming.A few plants on the terrace not only add serenity to your home, but also keep it cooler during summers.
These may seem very small actions to a big problem, but what better place to start than your own home !!
GO GREEN !!
