Read Coverting Letter – Rama’s squirrel calling ….. May 2024
Dear Friends,
Namaskaram.
5th June is celebrated all over the world as Environment day. Shri.Subramanian, Member of our EPIC group shared a very meaningful audio visual – Baby celebrates 1st year birthday event with grandparents… a celebration which is a thousand times better than cutting a cake and blowing off the candle fire.
If hundred and forty crore Indians start emulating this example of a farmer, we will be able to create a carbon sink to mitigate the global warming. We at Rameswaram are planting trees regularly since last decade.
This month’s newsletter has the following highlights:
- Dr.Sanjay Banerji in his blog updates us about ‘Novel Entities’ with reference to Global Chemicals Outlook
- Shri.Rangarajan continues to translate a few shlokas from the rare book on Ramanathaswami Temple
- Usual work carried out by Hand in Hand Inclusive Development Services in “Solid waste management”
- Dr. A.Abirami, Programme Officer of the C.P.R. Environmental Educational Center, Chennai writes on the herbal plant – Eswaramooli (Arkamula)
- In Social capital – Teertha Poojas, Visit of important dignitaries, Island Development Committee meeting, Green transport, Webinars and finally newsletter by the students and for the students of Rameswaram.
With best wishes,
