SAVE ENERGY


SAVE ENERGY!!!

Well this is the theme for the annual tech fest of iit madras .
Luckily i got the opportunity to appear in one of the posters .It depicts that a time will come when whole of the earth will be submerged and so we must be prepared for the future.
The situation is very alarming . I list some of the facts :
1.Past 12 years have been the hottest since 1850.
2.It takes 10 times more energy to produce frozen
food than fresh food.
3.40%decrease in thickness in arctic ice pack from
1960 to 2005
4. Developed countries have 20% of world's
population and consume 60% of total energy.
"Overall its a request from iit junta to switch off their comps, light and fan when not in room. Let us all make a beginning ."

i agree that saving energy is needed.. like turning off lights n fan when not in room.. but thats it..

Remember mahabalipuram is actually an ancient PORT city.. which means the sea level was that much higher during what, 1300s? So we need not worry abt rising sea levels. its probably one of nature's cycles..

wot say? (maybe my argument is flawed.. reply..)
