Albert Einstein once said:
The significant problems we have, cannot be solved at same level of thinking with which we created them. So we need to change our approach, and we need a fixed base on which to do so.
I invite you all to share your thoughts and ideas towards this new life.

SUSTAINABILITY-MANY DEFINITIONS
I am writing after a short gap of ten days as I was travelling. In the meantime, kept on thinking about various views on sustainability.
- Sustainability means living a dignified life in harmony with nature.
- It means living within available resources without damaging the environment ever.
- It means having long-term approach towards our actions which effect our future generations.
- Sustainability means that the natural resources are not consumed faster than the nature's system of renewal.
- Sustainability is the system of merging of economy and ecology.

BE AWARE AND ACT- ALTERNATE ENERGY
Using alternate resource of energy is very important for our Present and Future.
We are seeing the effects of our so called growth- Global Warming, Floods & Droughts, Recent cyclones & Hurricanes, Melting Glaciers and New Diseases.
We need to turn to- Solar Power, Wind Power, Bio-Mass Energy, Hydrogen-Energy, Natural Gas, etc.
Small steps can be taken individually, we can begin with our homes and collectively we can form a community for our present and future generations to come.
