Welcome To Sajjanpur: Light Movie

Sun, 16 Nov 2008 18:42:00 +0530

Enjoyed watching Welcome To Sajjanpur; nice, easy going movie; reminded a lot of Malgudi Days, Chitchor and Amol Palekar movies. The song Ek Meetha Marz De is very melodious.

Yuvvraaj Songs - Manmohini Morey is Outstanding

Thu, 13 Nov 2008 22:34:00 +0530

Manmohini Morey from Yuvvraaj is amazing. Mastam and the rest of the songs are pretty good too; quite a few have a classical touch.

Carbon Credits

Tue, 11 Nov 2008 00:34:00 +0530

Cartoon by Toothpaste for Dinner

Sometime back I read that Olympia Tech Park in the city had employed techniques for conserving and utilizing energy efficiently. They had cut down on Carbon emission and adhered to various norms in the industry. This reduction in Carbon emission resulted in Carbon Credits i.e they were emitting lesser Carbon than was allowed so the difference was credited to them. The Credits could be traded or sold to organizations that needed them, for example in the energy industry where emissions were exceeding the allowance.

Sample certificate from Enviro Friendly Products

In the past few weeks, I have noticed many IT companies trying to get into an ecological drive and terms such as Green IT have become buzzwords. The rise in such efforts could be attributed to:

An increased desire to create a cleaner environment
Trade Carbon Credits
Attract customers through another fancy initiative.

Though, in my opinion, it is due to the last mentioned reason :) But whatever the real reason, it is a step in the right direction and hope more organizations start such initiatives. I also hope that the government rewards and encourages these organizations with tax reliefs.
