Smallsteps
Plastics - all kinds
I learnt today that sometimes remnants of plastic can be found even in breast milk! Of course it depends on the environment that the mother is in, probabaly one that is hugely affected by plastic pollution, like some beaches in Hawaii. But to imagine that the legacy of the plastics pollution has reached such levels! The first taste of life for a new born infant comes polluted.
Are you taking Real Action?
Annie-Marie Slaughter, in her blog entry “Real Action on Climate Change”, had written a nice piece on the small steps we can take around us, to make a difference – something that perfectly resonates with the theme of Small Steps.
Coming out of the Bali conference of the United Nations on Climate Change, Anne-Marie redefined what was spelt out as “need for Real Action”
Inspiration from the junk – in Bihar
If you are familiar with Indian History, stories of brave women saving their countries and rising to be epitomes of inspiration aren’t new. The values of determination, strong will power and self-respect have long been associated with women.
If some of you thought that these stories of valor are passé, then you need to simply look around.

Its been some time since we talked about Small Steps. The Small Steps project is going great with more and more partners joining hands in working towards a common objective.
It is indeed a pleasure to see so many organizations come forward and aligning with us on our goal - making a cleaner India! However, more on that later. For now, it is small steps taken by an NGO in Romania, which has launched a public awareness outdoor campaign on the harmul effects caused by land clearing through Romania.
Small Steps in your lifestyle..
Recently saw an interview of the Chief of Global Cool, an organization to reduce Global Warming. Their campaign "Global Cool" aims to spread awareness about Global Warming, and how each one of us can do our bit to reduce it. Mission – Signing up one billion people who work together to save their planet!
No $100 cheques, no extreme sacrifices, no staid lifestyle - continue doing what you do, as you do it - just see how much you can contribute and change your lifestyle accordingly.
Small Steps...that make a difference..
A cool welcome to all friends and guests at this forum. It has been a really long time since an entry at this blog has been planned, and the vision articulated.
The project began sometime back and is in full swing around the country. We are getting contributors at a decent rate and look forward to more participants as well.
Simultaneously, this blog is a place that will bring together not only the people around the nation who think similarly, but the people around the whole globe who think and believe that small steps matter.
