Shubhashree had come across a blog


Shubhashree had come across a blog by a US-based environmental activist, Lauren Singer, who was living a zero-waste lifestyle; she could fit in waste generated by her in five years in a small jar. “It blew my mind. The shift has to happen in all our minds. I am also inculcating these habits in my 4-year-old daughter. “I worked on the handbook for three months, until April. We throw so much trash every day; zero waste lifestyle is something to aspire towards.Use a bamboo toothbrush instead of a plastic one.Refuse plastic bags.”Alternatives one can use:Avoid bottled water; carry a reusable steel bottle. After sending out the sketchbook, I also posted it on Instagram and got a good feedback. Some people pushed me towards publishing it.Use a refillable fountain pen instead of plastic pen.

A shopkeeper wouldn’t want to lose out on business if his customer forgets to get a bag..Subhashree signed up for ‘The Sketchbook Project’, a global crowd-sourced art project wherein you order a sketchbook, fill it up with a theme, send it back and it becomes part of the exhibit at the Brooklyn Art Library, New York. I’ve become very conscious about getting even a packet of biscuit.Shubhashree SangameswaranTalking about why people hesitate to adapt to a plastic-free life, she says, “Because the alternatives are a little hard to come by.Use menstrual cups or bio-degradable napkins or reusable cloth napkins instead of sanitary napkin.

Shubhashree Sangameswaran As a kid growing up in the 80s, Shubhashree Sangameswaran remembers using steel tins and old jars of health drinks to store groceries in the kitchen, taking a can or a bottle along to get milk from the booth and generating much less waste than the generation today. When I read about her it got me thinking that their lifestyle was not too different than how our parents and grandparents used to live. Keep sturdy cloth bags handy and use them till they wear out.”  Subhashree now plans to get the book translated in various languages to make it more accessible.Use steel cans to store wheat, pulses, rice etc. Looking back at the previous generation for inspiration, Shubhashree has come up with an illustrated handbook — Let’s Talk Trash — which gives people “a brief look at the past to see what lessons we can learn from our earlier generations and how they were effortlessly Vacuum Storage Bag Factory外部リンクzerowaste, even before it became a hashtag. Apart from reaching out to school, she has also reached out to people in her apartment to do community composting. I am also trying to find local stores where I can carry my own dabbas for groceries.

I always carry a bag, water bottle and a bamboo straw. Small but definite steps will make tangible difference.”Some of the illustrations from the handbookSharing a few tips, Shubhashree says, “To start, we need to become a little more conscious of everything that we bring in to the house, especially single use plastic such as straws. Meanwhile, I attended an event in Bengaluru called Bhoomi Habba, which revolves around sustainability and put up a stall of my books there.Author Shubhashree Sangameswaran talks about zero waste with her illustrated handbook — Let’s Talk Trash. It got a good response # at the event, and even on my website, The Hungry Palette. at home. At some point I wanted to do a series of illustrations around it,” explains the Hyderabad-based freelance illustrator

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis

Mumbai: The BJP will not have a post-poll understanding with the Congress in the BMC and not abandon the transparency agenda, its plank in the civic polls, Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis said on Saturday.“We will take along those who come with us, but proceed without those who don’t come with us,” he said, addressing a rally at the state BJP office.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.“BJP is a party which fights ideology with ideology.Though the Shiv Sena has emerged as the single largest party in the BMC polls winning 87 seats, its estranged ally the BJP pocketed 82 seats. Whether we bag power (in BMC) or not, we will never go with the Congress,” the CM said.

We won’t stop them,’ Fadnavis said

The Chinese had demonstrated a similar capability

With the successful testing of an anti-satellite (ASAT) missile on Wednesday, India demonstrated its capability to knock out or “blind” a potential adversary’s satellite in space in order to degrade its communications capabilities.There was really no urgent “security” dimension to the ASAT test, even if that&Wholesale Hanging vacuum storage bags外部リンク39;s the dummy sold by the government to the Election Commission, which seems to have accepted it with willingness and alacrity. The satellite our scientists “killed” was 300 km in low orbit above the earth. Prime Minister Narendra Modi announces the success of Mission Shakti on Wednesday.India knocked out a micro satellite of its own launched only this January to demonstrate its capability, which is a marriage of missile and space technologies, and became only the fourth country after the United States, the former Soviet Union (now Russia) and China to do so.

The Chinese had demonstrated a similar capability in 2007 by hitting a useless satellite of theirs 500 km above. Military and civilian programmes for even daily use applications these days are lodged inside satellites orbiting in space at varying altitudes. That will involve parking weapons in outer space.And lest we get carried away, this isn’t “Star Wars” prowess. That the Manmohan Singh government didn't go ahead and test may not # be due to a “lack of political will”, as some have suggested. At the moment the ASAT test seems more to be in the realm of perfecting a science and technology capability.Even the ASAT capability was ready by 2010, as defence minister Nirmala Sitharaman, finance minister Arun Jaitley, and present and former top scientists of DRDO, which conducted the test, attest. No country is yet capable of that. There was no enemy knocking at the gate. Let’s not get breathless about things.The ruling side seems set on a needless course to convince the country that it is a better guardian of the nation's security than its rivals, notably the Congress, overlooking the fact that the vivisection of Pakistan in 1971 and the first nuclear test at Pokhran in 1974 (when India was a much poorer nation) were executed by Congress governments. Having embarked on this path, perhaps it's a matter of time when we will need to shoot missiles at higher-placed satellites, just to be doubly sure. That factor would come into play only if there was an immediate security requirement. But from the ruling party’s and government’s perspective, time was slipping away as the casting of the first ballot in the seven-phase election is exactly a fortnight away.It's an open question whether a proven capability to strike a satellite in the lower reaches of space, which we have just demonstrated, automatically means we can also hit satellites placed in higher orbits..Seen from the country’s perspective, the ASAT test could well have happened two months afterwards, or even later.Military and civilian programmes for even daily use applications these days are lodged inside satellites orbiting in space at varying altitudes
