Urbanisation throws up the challenge of maintaining the equilibrium between the demands of development and conservation of natural resources.
While we need to modernise, it is imperative to take care of our land, air and water.
With land getting scarcer with every passing day we need to think if the existing land use pattern and practices are desirable for us and our future generations.
We have a stake in getting the land use pattern right to ensure that the diverse needs of various sections of society and different sectors of our economic life are addressed in a sustainable manner.
We are aware that the our ambient air is getting overloaded with harmful gases like Carbon Dioxide, carbon monoxide, sulphur dioxide etc.
