Water conservation

This was a billboard outside the nice hotel we stayed at in our Taj Mahal trip in Northern India. It says, “Life runs on H2O (water), don’t waste it.” We could not hear it better from a country accounting only 4% of global freshwater resources for its 18% of the world population. But wherever we are, either we have plenty or scarce, the same thing applies to water conservation just like of other resources. We are stewards of these resources and we should manage them well.

Away to the Gateway

Another angle of the Gateway. It was pretty here. In front of the premises is an area enclosed in green fence as mentioned they also put a “keep away” fence inside around the main building itself. It was nice.

Frontier trivia the day:

air pollution from industrial effluents and vehicle emissions; and water pollution from raw sewage and runoff of agricultural pesticides are one of the current environmental issues in India.
