Let us see it later “ Stop cutting Trees & Start Planting Trees ” Stop Start Of course, this is not new advice, it is very old advice, but there is no Excuse. In the natural system, there will not be any Excuse, every action gives reaction and already started impacts of “Climate Change and Global Warming “ Already started impacts of “Climate Change and Global Warming “ Human Health Eco-system Drinking Water Social System Already Effects on ”human health” Global warming already contributes to more than 150,000 deaths and 5 million illnesses annually. Those numbers could raise significantly from now in a surprising number of ways: speeding the spread of infectious diseases such as malaria and dengue fever; creating conditions that lead to potentially fatal malnutrition and diarrhea; Already Drinking Water crisis observed As on date already, about 110 crore people living on the globe suffering from a serious lack of fresh water. By 2025 this number will increase to 300 crore, which is over 40 percent of the entire population worldwide and the crisis will hit first and foremost – China and India – Effects the Ecological systems According to the scientist, already few kind of animals, birds and trees disappeared due to the “Climate Change”. Effects the Social systems: (Heavy floods) The Climate change is expected to particularly affect some sectors and systems related to human activities. Low-lying coastal systems are vulnerable to sea level rise and storm surge. Already Effects in the Natural systems It has already been observed the Rising Sea Level due to melting of snow ice in the North Pole and South Pole due to increasing heat on the earth and if this is continued there is every possibility of shrinking of earth into the water How this Climate Change & Global Warming happening We all know, that it is happening due to human activities, but still let us discuss Deforestation ( Cutting Trees) Burning of fossil fuel (Petrol, diesel etc for vehicles) Increasing of greenhouse gases (Factory Emissions). What Happens, if this is continued There are 3 Situations Situation - 1 Unexpected Earth Quakes and Tsunami 2. May not be living conditions on the Planet Earth Before Now Future The quantum of Co2 may go beyond its absorbing capacity of the Eco & Natural System due to lack of Trees. 3. Snow Ice & may Melt and the land may shrink into water. Before Now Future Already Snow Ice started meting in the North Pole and South Pole and consequently Sea Level is increasing. Human Activities taking back Planet Earth to its original shape (A burning piece divided from Planet Sun and formed as Planet Earth, now again the Planet Earth going back to its original shape of burning due to human activities) Planet Earth going back to its original shape Due to “Climate Change & Global Warming” We get one most important Question What Government is doing, why can not government alone solve this problem ? “Government is very much doing, what it can do, now only let is we have to do” . (Let us see in detail) What is to be done to reduce Global Warming ? 1. Plant Trees. 2. Reduce Pollutant activities. Planting of Trees & its cost How many Trees to be planted ? According to me 100 trees are required per every person on the earth as follows : Total Global Emission (in 2008) : 3,000 crore Tones (30 Billion Tones) Total Global Population : 630 crore (round figure apprx.) Global average emission per person : 4.7 Tones (apprx) How much one tree will absorb CO2 : 45 Kgs (solid tree) So, nearly 100 trees are required per person on the Earth. Why should we take Global Average ? Whether only Plants / Tress can absorb Co2 ? Planting of Trees & its cost How many Trees to be planted ? According to me 100 trees are required per every person on the earth as follows : Total Global Emission (in 2008) : 3,000 crore Tones (30 Billion Tones) Total Global Population : 630 crore (round figure apprx.) Global average emission per person : 4.7 Tones (apprx) How much one tree will absorb CO2 : 45 Kgs (solid tree) So, nearly 100 trees are required per person on the Earth. Why should we take Global Average ? Whether only Plants / Tress can absorb Co2 ? Planting of Trees & its cost What will be cost for the Government ? - Rs. 10,000 per tree If, so how much the Govt. should spend per person ? - Rs. 10 Lakh Per person How much the Govt. is able to spend currently ? - Rs. 4 per person If, so how many years, it will take to plant required number of trees ? : 2.5 Lakh Years What will be cost, if we (People) do it ? + 10,000 per tree So, Govt. can not do it, only we (people) should do it Is there so much land on this earth ? Let us take India, as example : How much land is required per person ? : 1 Acre per person How much land is required for Indian Population ? : 100 Crore Acres But, Total land : 75 Crore Acres Cultivable Land : 30 Crore Acres If, take out 50% : 15 crore Acres It is just only 15% our requirement. So, by only planting of trees will not be solution, we should very much reduce pollutant activities. But, in Anantapur district, it is better plant trees Due to the following 2 reasons : 1. Dry Area. 2. Required land is there (we are lucky) Total land in Anantapur district : 45 lakh Acres (apprx). Total Population in Anantapur dt : 40 lakh (Apprx) What are pollutant activities and Why the Govt. can not prohibit ? In current world every activity is pollutant activity. It is not practically possible to prohibit (best example is smoking and alcohol, saying it is injurious to the health, Govt. permits) Another important is that : It will create economic disaster like un-employment and other economic imbalances. Let us see in detail. How People Economic Activities will help each other Take one Example : There are just 10 people in one country and all of them do only agriculture, think all 10 of them are in Agriculture”. No other activity and No pollution. What will be GDP ? How People Economic Activities will help each other What will be GDP ? (Think All its value : Rs. 10,000) GDP : Agriculture - 10 Person : Rs. 10,000 ___________ Total : Rs. 10,000 =========== GDP per capita : Rs. 1,000. How People Economic Activities will help each other Think, these people will get different ideas and get diversified into different fields as follows : 4 of them produce : Agriculture. 2 of them produce : House and Furniture. 2 of them Produce : Restaurant. 2 of them produce : Entertainment. What will be GDP ? How People Economic Activities will help each other What will be GDP ? Agriculture – 4 persons : Rs. 10,000 Housing - 2 Persons : Rs. 5,000 Restaurant - 2 Persons : Rs. 5,000 Entertainment – 2 Persons : Rs. 5,000 ___________ Total : Rs. 25,000 =========== GDP per capita : Rs. 25,000. How People Economic Activities will help each other So, more Economic activities of people will create more economy. Also it will improve human living standards. So, as many activities as possible required. But we should also bear in mind Global Warming and find alternative ways and means. What are best ways to come out of Global Warming ? There are so many ways, we can reduce, but significantly the following 3 ways : 1. Stop cutting Trees and Start Planting Trees. 2. Use Solar lighting for house hold things. 3. Reduce personal vehicles and use public transport / Solar Vehicles. Because, the above will not create any un-employment and on top that it will save natural resources. However, currently, let us concentrate on planting trees as we need to study more about using solar as it requires more investment. What kind of trees to plant and where to plant Any Tree is OK (But, not plants) . Any where (either public or private place). If we go for Tree plantation, whether we will get any food shortage ? 1. Fruit Trees : Fruits - yield will be much more than rice / Dal. Fruits also very much healthy. 2. Other Trees : . All other trees are very much helpful (like furniture, housing and paper Etc) Do you agree ? Whether people are aware ? If so , why people neglect ? Who are people ? First : me, Next : You, Further : Others and Finally : We all (All human being on this Earth). Do you agree ? Our General Attitude, about Social Responsibilities : “Wait & See”. First Neighbor, then we can think of doing ! ( It is not that people do not care, of course if people do not care, how can so many great things would have happened on the Earth ! Even people have been giving their life for the society in several instances, but still people “wait & see“ Because, we are fully occupied with our own works, So when it comes to Social Responsibility, we wait & see and make sure 100% that it will not be one more headache) Where is big risk in planting trees, compare to losses ! So, I want to suggest : “Do & Make others to do” “ Let us plant Trees & Make others to plant Trees” What we can do ? Best way is : “Do and tell others to do “ Not keen on Donations : Better to accept only selectively with high care. As neither it is safe nor it will serve purpose. Others ways : Contributions / Sponsorships What is Donation ? Somebody just give money and they will not involve into activities. Contributions ? Somebody will give money for specific purpose and also involve. Sponsorships ? Advertisements. Contributions Somebody can contribute as follows : 1. Planting of 10 or 50 or 100 trees (We take approval from the Municipality for some location and in that we will allot to people who are interested) . 2. Contribute Trees / Guards / land. 3. Print and Circulate Save Nature Promotion material. Sponsorships Sponsorships are mainly advertisements, some body can make use of our activities for their advertisements as follows : 1. On Tree guards. 2. Banners in the meetings / Seminars. 3. Promotion material like brochure and book lets Our policy is to do and tell others to do If so what will be our relationship with others? There should be some scheme Better is Certificate scheme as follows 1. Those who plant 10 or more trees, let us give certificate of appreciation as “Save Nature Visionary” 2. Those who plant 100 trees and make 10 Save Nature Visionary , let us give Certificate as “Save Nature Mentor” 3. Those who creates 100 Mentors, give certificate as “Save Nature Legendary” Do we have so much image ? 1. We will also will bring Celebrities once in year and do Anniversary in April or May 2. Our is going to be international brand (As we are already in 8 countries : India, Vietnam, Cambodia, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesea, Thailand, Laos) We also have plan to visit all 190 countries in the world and plant at least 10 trees in each country What will be relationship among 1. Subbamma & Sreeramulu Foundation. 2. Anantapur Save nature Foundation 3. Global Save Nature Foundation Relationship 1. Subbamma & Sreeramulu Foundation : Is only contributor / sponsor . 2. Global Save Nature Foundation is just website www.savenaturefoundation.org it will act as: Guide. International Network 3. Anantapur Save NATURE is independent organisation. Our image will depend on our Finance Management So First you need to reserve money for our commitments, like : Office rent per 1 year Salaries 1 year Office Expenses like electricity and other 1 year Any other Commitments in 1 year Only Balance money, we should plan for any new works Balance Money 50% for our planting trees or trees distribution. 50 % for meetings What kind of meetings 1. Meetings with organizations like Lions Club, Rotary Club, Arya Vysya Sangam , Merchant Associations 2. Home Meetings with Friends and relatives Our cost will keep on coming down Budgeted : Rs. 2,000 per tree. Hosuing Board : Rs. 500/- per tree. If we give only trees : Rs. 50/- per tree If we give only Certificates : ? Are we successful ? We are highly successful as we have done in 5 months that what we planned to do in 5 years. What is our target for 1st Anniversary ? In April 2010 100 Save Nature Visionaries Can we achieve ? Can we give certificate every year for just planting 10n trees in anniversary ? It is only first year. Next year onwards only in small function for Save Nature Visionaries. Only Mentors and Legendries in the Anniversary So, this is like promotion offer, we have to make use and make at least 100 Save Nature Visionaries Since it is very much true and all scientific evidences are there : World Wide : “United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change” UNFCCC In India : “Prime Minister’s Council on Climate Change” PMCCC (copy of PMCCC’s action plan is in pdf file) “Do & Make others to do” Suggested 3 Steps : 1st : Plant 10 or more tress. 2nd : Make 10 more to plant 10 trees each. 3rd : Support those 10 to convince another 10 each. Who are people ? First : me, Next : You, Further : Others and Finally : We all (All human being on this Earth). So, we should have an attitude like first I want to do, next I want to tell you and further make you to tell others and finally let all of us do. What we can do ? ‘Global Warming’ is a macro issue, in what way a common people like us can do some thing on this, it should be done at National or International government level ! Next Question is – Why people do not do ? Generally human nature will be as follows : About Rights “We will be first ” Suppose, the Government announces “Free- TV to Every Home”. Even they announce once, we all will stand in queue immediately (Of Course, I will be First to stand in queue.) About Duties “We will Wait and See” Suppose, the government keeps 100 loud speakers and say we have to plant trees, it will not go in us. (Of course, me too not planted even 1 tree till date). Why wait and see ? Generally we all are fully occupied with our own personal problems so when the question of “Social Responsibility” comes, we all will wait and see, so as to make sure this will not be another problem to us. Means, one person will do when others have already done and proven that there is no additional risk from that and it can be done by anybody. In simple : Personal Counseling is required. What is the use of only we doing ? Next our query is what is the use of only we doing at Anantapur, this is the problem of whole globe, means problem of 600 crore people, what is the use of doing only we 100 or 200 people at Anantapur ? It is really good question. Any thing starts from one person In this world any thing starts first from one person, right from stone era till date, any thing in world would have started from person and next it would have become globally. Take any example : say “Fire” : - We would have read that, before fire was discovered, people use to eat raw meat and after finding “Fire” , people started eating roasted food. That ‘Fire’ would have been observed by one person first and later on it would have gone to other people. Similarly, any thing, you take in this world : saying : “Cooking food” or “Wearing Cloths” or “Housing” , any thing would have started with one person. The distance of any person of any where to another person any where in this world will be just within “10 Shake Hands” For Example : 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. It is not difficult to meet any person his Village president. Similarly, Village president can easily meet Mandal head, Mandal head can meet “Collector” The Collector can meet CM, The CM can meet PM, PM can meet other country PM, …………………….. Like that any body can meet anybody in this World within 10 Shake Hands. In fact, Things will be much faster in this Global Village of technology. But it is possible only when we do First and tell others. So, first let us do and make other to do Let us have a time frame target as follows to reach whole globe in 8 years as follows : 1st Quarter : 10 people. 2nd Quarter : 100 people.. 3rd Quarter : 1000 people. 2ND Year : 10 thousand people. 3rd Year : 1 lakh people. 4th Year : 10 Lakh people. 5th & 6th Year : 1 crore. 7th & 8th Year : 10 Crore. 9th & 10th Year : 100 crore. For the above, all that we have to do is : “First we have to do next we have ask another 10 to do and further make those 10 to make another 10 each and so on……..” Where to Plant trees ? (Public Places or Own places ) Any where, it will be OK. In case of own places, the following additional advantages are there : 1. 2. 3. It can fetch you some additional income. Investing on land is always ideal investment. This may act as your Economic life security.
