Save Trees Save Earth.

Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realise we cannot eat money.

June 5th is the world environmental day. It’s an opportunity to do something nice for your country, your health and your planet. Take a new resolution on coming June 5th to save the trees. Together with the employees of my company, I decided to use a stainless steel cup for drinking the coffee. Currently we uses over 5000 disposable paper cups in one day. This amounts to about 1,15,000 cups a month. Not only does this amount to a tremendous amount of wastage, but more importantly, the paper that goes into making these cups comes from trees that are being cut down month on month to meet our daily requirements.

What about you?

The Door to Hell

The-Door-to-Hell

This place in Uzbekistan is called by locals “The Door to Hell”.

It is situated near the small town of Darvaz. The story of this place lasts already for 35 years. Once the geologists were drilling for gas. Then suddenly during the drilling they have found an underground cavern, it was so big that all the drilling site with all the equipment and camps got deep deep under the ground. None dared to go down there because the cavern was filled with gas. So they ignited it so that no poisonous gas could come out of the hole, and since then, it’s burning, already for 35 years without any pause. Nobody knows how many tons of excellent gas has been burned for all those years but it just seems to be infinite there.

it’s an absolute beast and holds the title of largest open diamond mine in the world. at 525 metres deep with a top diameter of 1200 metres there’s even a no-fly zone above the hole due to a few helicopters being sucked in.

World water day

The event, which takes place each year on March 22, was established by the United Nations in 1992 to highlight the increasing demands being placed on the world’s freshwater supplies.

Addressing this year’s theme of “water scarcity,” Margaret Chan, head of the World Health Organization, noted that more than 1.6 million people die each year because they lack access to safe water and proper sanitation.
