It is alarming...certain plants such as Agave, Zazuba etc. prevents this. Attempts were made in certain States in India to plant them. But this is not taken up now. Must restart again...

[Dr. SUDHIR KUMAR PANDA]

There are solutions, but who will do?????

-Control Population with "We two, ours one concept" even in village population, initiate stringent action by Govt. for the deviators.

- Control vehicular movements, adopt walking/cycling concept for nearer distances, provide bi-cycles to your kids, even to college going students, that will be beneficial to them only.

-Don't waste FOOD anywhere.

-Save energy in terms of electricity, fuel, waste generation.

-Save water, promote rain water harvesting.

-Recycling of water through Sewage Treatment Plant in townships. 

-Stop garbage disposal through burning. Generate energy from garbage.

-Save trees & Plant trees, Plantation is the ultimate solution.

Combined effort of all the activity would definitely help the nature to some extent from global warming, soil erosion etc....

and

IT SHOULD START FROM "ME"
