Summer Season... What are we doing differently? (Global Warming)

My dear social friends, brothers and sisters ... 

Vanakkam, Namaste.

I trust everyone is doing well.. In India, we were at peak summer... Temperature was increasing day by day.. Everyone started talking about climate change these days... Good to see the awareness. :)

But - what did we see in reality?

  1. We were seeing terrific number of advertisements and offers for AC, Fridge and Air Coolers. 
  2. We were seeing huge number of advertisements for Ice creams and dairy products
  3. We were seeing huge discounts for loans (consumer electronics), micro-finance etc.

Yes, these are repeating year over year...   Everyone is reporting growth on top of these, which is forcing the industry and everyone's pay check.

But, did that beat summer?. Did that decrease temperature? Did that help global warming?

If not, what are are doing differently?

1. Why not plant some trees during summer ? This is the toughest one, and maintaining/protecting trees are not easy at all during summer. This is for next generation.

2. Why not protect existing trees during summer? This is the tough time for trees. Watering big trees help.

3. Why not create some awareness and activities during summer, for reducing global warming, instead of just "surviving via ACs and ice creams"

When I was kid, we did see many big trees. For example: Banyan Tree, Indian Fig Tree (Athi maram), Neem Tree etc.  Where are those?.

In the world of digital economy, we see big buildings, big news updates, but big trees are disappearing...

It is time to think differently. Could we do something to prevent big trees, campaign about the importance of these?  It takes many years to grow a tree... It takes few decades to get a good shadow from a tree..

Farming gives happiness, farming rejuvenates you.   Growing trees give patience, camping under a big tree brings more memories and healthy life...

Napping under a tree could provide a relaxing experience at day time, by connecting with nature, fresh air, and natural sounds.  An interesting article is here:

Thank you, Take care.  

Nandri Vanakkam ! Dhanywad. !

Planted 100 Palm Trees (Palmyra palm tree or Panai Maram)... :)

 Hi Everyone -- I trust you, family and friends are doing well.  In this blog, I am going to share little bit about my diwali weekend activity. It was a good long weekend and it helped me to plan better. Let me add some value to our environment and society during this Diwali. Ok, what is it about? Planting Palm Trees : It is called "Panai Maram" in Tamil or Palmyra palm tree as per google.. :)  Here is the fruit from palm tree in raw form, it is called "Ice Apple". These days, people make juice (i.e. Nongu sarbath) from this and it is becoming very famous. I decided to plant around 100 trees. My day started at 5.30 am. Typically all farmers get up very early and they get into farms early. :).. Farmers work hard, farming is like serving to people.  We finished all the work by 2.00 pm. Along with Palm trees, I did plant many Neem trees too. Myself and folks working in farm, we started collecting all the palm seeds and packed in sacks. Unpacked in target place and sta

My dear social friends, brothers and sisters ...  Vanakkam, Namaste.  This blog is about my experience at the recent reunion that we had.... Special thanks to my friends! Tesla and all devices without recharge, or with no charge - it is called as ??. Recharge is important for human too :) Group of folks having titles varying from architects, strategists, delivery heads, C and mid-level executives, consultants etc, working for various Fortune-500 companies, having a habit of meeting every year. For what purpose? It was neither about strategy and market position nor about investment and financials.   Then, why do they meet? I decided to take few days off amidst my busy schedule and decided to join those folks this year, not to find out why, what etc… Just to hang around with those folks, as they are all my engineering batch mates...   This time, my friends organized get-together in Florida. They meet every year in USA, but for me this is the first time. I am going to meet many of my ba

Palm Trees Progress - Two leaves in two years.... (Panai Maram and Karupatti Kaapi)

Image
My dear social friends, brothers and sisters ...  Vanakkam, Namaste and good day!. Last month , I visited India and I will share the latest progress and latest experiences from farm. This blog is about palm trees. Two years back, I planted around 100 palm trees. Here is the old blog: https://blog.prabakarpaulsami.com/2021/11/planted-100-palm-trees-palmyra-palm.html I visited my farm, happy to see some progress and sharing the same here. The interesting fact is that, after two years of planting and waiting, I see now two leaves. :). Not all trees survived, but many survived our last year drought. It took two years, to see some visible progress as see you below. Many trees still have just one leave as you see below. Palm Trees take longer time to grow. An average growth rate is: 3 to 10 inches per year. What does it mean: This plantation is for next generation. I am sure that, I will not get any benefits from this plantation.  But, preserving/growing this tree for next generation. It is
