Dear Madam/Sir
Greetings from sasrai-Movement, that promotes prudent and thrifty use and conservation of resources. The movement aimed at to animate each individual, family, community, institution, organization to combat Climate Change, Global warming, food, fuel, water security, poverty, disaster, waste, ecosystem and biodiversity etc.
Abstract
Climate change, climate variability and extremes are affecting our food production and will most challenge our food security. Farmers and extension services have been baffled on ways to address this uncertainty, manage crop production and ensure good harvest. Climate change is a global problem, and yet each one of us has the power to make a difference. Even small changes in our daily behavior can help prevent greenhouse gas emissions without affecting our quality of life. In fact, they can help to save our money.
To meet the challenges sasrai-Movement could be one of the most effective vehicle we urge to all uphold it. It stands for plain, simple and easier life for all, as less as possible, consumption of resources in our daily living. It urges initiating it in own life, at home, at own place. It stands for democracy, diversity, decentralization, tolerance, transparency, self-reliance and peace. Its first consideration is tomorrow, the future generation, who have not spoiled a bit of this earth’s resources, the children, who have not committed any sinful act. It believes in community potentials to solve their problem, adaptation by the available resources they own right now.
It stands for giving up the luxuries that destroy the earth’s resources. It stands for reuse, recycling as maximum as possible. The students, the youth, the hope of the future, can start by devising their way of serving the humanity, the planet. We encourage devising own instead of suggesting, directing like big brother. Because environment doesn’t accept, tolerate dictation from powerful or powerless.
We are open in share of our vision, mission, learning and experience. We try to start the initiative in our personal life, at homes. The students and teachers here are encouraged to start practice in their personal life, class rooms, in schools and homes. Then they could appeal to friends, neighbors, relatives and to the others.
We try to use empty pots, small pieces of land by planting saplings. Our preferences are medicinal plants, vegetables. We try to avoid one-time-use items. We try to switch off our electric bulbs and fans for at least one minute a day. We encourage avoiding using air conditioners.
We sit with the students and teachers and they collectively decide their steps. We start in a smaller way. We try to avoid to be dominating. We think if any organizational structure is formed then all have to take the post of “leader” by rotation. We believe in local resources and fund to launch any initiative. I hope, we can talk on more functional issues in future.
Till today we have taken decisions collectively in a democratic and participatory way. We generate funds by selling used/old household items, by putting our labor. We encourage in cutting luxury, unnecessary cell phone call, cool drinks, junk food etc. We try to walk as maximum as possible but obviously not at the expense of health and time.
Kindest regards.

School boy Mr. Falah Galeeb Ithu opined ……………………….
Many bought flags and other materials to cheer up their favorite world cup team even knowing that this may not cheer their favorite team. Why not they plant a tree with 1/4 of the flag’s cost and same effort while it will not only increase the beauty, but will also serve self, family, fan, community, nation largely humanity, their favorite team too……
Let’s we learn from our children what should be the way of our living, thinking, fashion. As human being we cannot do anything as desire. There should be rational, restrain, prudence-must be environment friendly.
Certainly institute/establish fair, integrity is tougher everywhere. The great Socrates, urged ‘What a lot of things there are a man can do without’ – if it would be followed environment campaign may not be needed today. So we must be reorganized in living, mindset, have patience and passion for just-environment. We shall overcome. Lot of bitter experience, happening there hopefully none would compel to accept Socrates’s fate. Hope we would start again with full placidity and valor …..
