India's water availability through rivers is depleting at an alarming rate. We have only 75% of what we had in 1947. By 2030 we will have only 50% of water we need for survival. If the country / govt and citizens don't take combined immediate action, future generations will have extreme hardship. Do you know Cauvery does not reach the see? It has dried up 75 km before its destination.
The solution lies in planting (forest) trees in govt land, fruit trees in private land all along the river banks to a width of 1 km on both sides. We need to create a policy at central / State levels to save rivers. It is a long time plan. When properly implemented results would show up after several years.
Isha Foundation led by Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev is conducting a national level rally to create awareness on this issue. Sadhguru himself would drive from Kanyakumari to Himalayas starting from 3rd Sep ending on 2nd October in Delhi. Sixteen Chief Ministers are joining and supporting. Draft policy document will be presented to govt on Gandhi Jayanti Day in Delhi.
Please see the pamphlet attached. If you wish to support this cause just give a missed call to 8000980009. Your family members may have many mobiles. Request them to support in similar way. Only one call per mobile number will be counted. It is to impress upon the govt that public are with them or that a policy is their (public's) demand.
