Corporate social responsibility refers to the various responsibilities in the process of making an organization a responsible corporate citizen of the society.
Within the business world, the main “responsibility” for corporations has historically been to make money and increase shareholder value. Gradually, in the last decade,
the movement and support for the environment, for local communities, for better working conditions, and for ethical practices has gathered momentum and taken hold.
These days, businesses have started measuring the performance and that is calculated on the basis of the tangible and intangible value additions which not only include the financial performance but also other non- financial performances. Proper reporting is done also known
as sustainability reporting, helps the organizations in the process of brand building, internal and external communication. The reporting benefits in maximum utilization of available resources, stakeholders satisfaction and sustainable development in real terms.
The different factors in measuring corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices include transparent trade practices and transactions based on ethical values, following the legal compliances, respecting the communities, people and environment. Beyond making profit, companies are responsible for their negative impacts on the stakeholders and the planet. Different stakeholders are their employees, customers, business partners, investors, suppliers and the community. In order to satisfy the expectation of all the stakeholders, the companies should be more environmentally and socially responsible
business operations.
It is also described as “triple bottom line” approach for the impact measurement, which includes the corporation’s financial, social, and environmental performance in
conducting its business.
Thus it (CSR) is not about charity, but it belongs to the core business of a company and therefore should be an integral part of doing business. Companies are under increasing pressure from multilateral societies and governments are taking strict measures for corporate to take socially responsible conducts and actions.
पानी की कहानी
पानी बहता है
यहाँ से वहा - इधेर से उधेर
वहा से यहाँ - उधर से इधर
लकिन
बहता है ऊपर से निचे ही
बहना जरुरी भी ह उसके लिए
अपने लिए भी , पर.........
पानी बहता है बदलो से जमी तक
पहाड़ो से नालो तक
नालो से नदी तक
न रुकता न थकता बस बहता है
नदी से बड़ी नदी
बड़ी नदी से समुन्द्र तक
जो नहीं बहता वो रुक जाता ह
तालाबो में , पोखरों में और उन छोटे गड्डों में
पर फिर भी कोसिस करता है बहने की
तालाबो से नहरों में ,
नहरों से खेतो में
खेतो से फसलो में
फसलो से ...........
फसलो का पानी कुख जाता ह अनाजो में दानो में
फिर भी कोसिस करता है , आपनो को बुलाने की
जब जाता है मुह में
तो बुलाता है पीछे रुके हुए , कही बिचड़े हुए आपने साथी पानी को
की आजा आब चलते है , बहते है कही और
गटक लिया जाता ह अन्दर
अब तो शायद रुकेगा
पर नहीं
फिर बह निकलता ह कही और
मिलता ह आपने साथियो से
बहता है नालियों से- पर रुकता नहीं चाहूऔर
चाहे गर्मी हो या हो सर्दी
और हो बारिस का समय
मेरा काम है बहना, यही है मेरा गहना

Conserve our water resources as fresh water scarcity will be a big problem in future due to climate change. Imagine if all glaciers that fed our rivers got melt and go into the oceans......from where you will get fresh water for your drinking and daily needs. so conserve water at your household level, implement the rainwater harvesting technology in your houses, use rural ground water recharge technologies if you have land and most important completely stop the wastage of water in your kitchen and bathroom......After all water is the base of life....

The Joint Forest Management Committees under the Rupnarayan Forest Development Agency at West Midnapore in the state of West Bengal have enabled the forest protection and preservation at the very grass root level with the co-operation of the local people and this approach has also been a boon in case of dealing with the regional problems like elephant depredation and extremist activities. It is due to this that the Rupnarayan Forest Development Agency like other Forest Development Agencies of the state has perhaps been the only structural group which has been able to function successfully in these terror stricken areas.
DVD cover of the Documentary
Marching ahead with notions of development, sustainability and prosperity, there has been a reason for every villager to smile. From saving the forests to the gaining of livelihood opportunities and long term assets, as the new dawn approaches, there is an emergence of light also in the lives of the people, while when it comes to dusk, the villagers celebrate and rejoice, welcoming the dawn of the day ahead.
The documentary is presented by the Regional Centre, National Afforestation and Eco-Development Board, Ministry of Environment & Forests, Government of India, Jadavpur University, Kolkata and sponsored by the National Afforestation and Eco-Development Board, Ministry of Environment & Forests, Government of India.
Are there laboratories in India certified to perform drinking water analyses for known contaminants?
From the time we are born, we take up an aim...an ambition....a goal in life. These aims keep changing with age and situations. The higher we go up the ladder of life....the less chances prevail for those aims to come true...
I was thinking of some tool by which I could sensitize that 'child' in each one of us again....the child who was born to Mother Earth. If we were to take up an aim(lakhsya) to protect our Mother who gave birth to us and nurtured us to make us reach where we are today....i would call it a 'Green Lakhshya'...
And hence am using my thoughts, my feelings, and my passion to write articles for my blog: www.greenlakshya.wordpress.com
Even if one of you follow my 'lakshya'.......my aim for doing this would come true.
So please read and take up this 'lakhshya' of aiming green
Your comments and suggestions would take me a little closer to achieving 'my green lakhshya'
Thanks

Of late, I have been thinking that one day goes by without a newspaper carrying an article or story related to environmental issues. If you live in India (like I do), such news is more often than not (very) depressing. After reading numerous such stories, I (almost) started questioning myself about whether anything "can go right" when it comes to environmental concerns. So, this morning, when I picked up the latest issue of Saudi Aramco World magazine and flipped through it, I was very pleasantly surprised to see something positive for a change . . . to read more, click here.
For those who don't know him, Guru Das Agarwal — with his flowing white beard and piercing eyes — might appear like a rishi. For those who know him, he's nothing less. Probably it is an indication of the kind of esteem in which the 76-year-old former IIT Kanpur professor is held that when he decided to go on a fast-unto-death to protest against the hydel power projects being built on the upper reaches of the Ganga, support began pouring in.

Hi,
I have heard of experiments in which certain species of earthworms have been used to degrade the human anatomical waste from sanitary napkins. Can someone tell me whether it is possible to use earthworms for degrading the human anatomical waste component of biomedical waste? If so, which species of earthworm would be suitable for this? Of course, there are risks involved, but if it works out well, then it can become a solution to treat BMW (anatomical, pathological waste) at least on a small scale.

Sir,
Environmental degradation is growing into a grave concern in various parts of the world today. Countries especially in developing regions are suffering from problems emanating from a combination of factors including population growth, concentration of population in cities, industrialization and poverty, resulting in air pollution, water contamination, decline in sanitation, degradation of forests and soil, loss of biodiversity, marine pollution etc.
Moreover pollutants released in countries around the world are spreading across boundaries and transcending generations to cause problems of a wide range, such as climate change and acid deposition. These problems are not only threatening human health & living but also undermining the foundation of development for future generations with the diminishment of environmental resources.
In order to eliminate poverty and preserve the benefits of the environment for the future, actions must be taken to address environmental issues based on the concept of sustainable development. We team of experts drawn from various fields started a non government organisation in the year 1998 by name “Green Universe Environmental Services Society" renowned as the “GUESS”.
We are one of the leading civil societies in India committed towards sustainable development initiatives. For the past decade we are fighting against various environmental degradation issues and initiating change through reinvention & innovation. Our objective is to make our planet free from happening series of disasters due to man made mistakes in the name of development & technological advancement.
Today climate change is great concern to the society. Global warming effects are too severe resulting in frequent natural disasters like uncertain rain fall, drought, cyclones, tsunamis, earth quakes, depletion of ground water, seasonal changes, climate shift, soil fertility degradation, increase in temperature etc.
Countries like India 70% of the population depend on agriculture and allied sectors. changing climatic conditions are transforming most of the agricultural fields & farm lands in to deserts. The farmers and rural masses are losing livelihoods and migrating to urban areas which causing lot of pressure.
India is going to face severe food crisis in near future due to high level growth rate of population and climate shift. World population touched 7000 Million and by 2050 expected world population would be around 14000 Million. Situation is alarming.
At this juncture feeding 1500 Million population would be a hectic task.
Considering the above facts it is the time to react and to take up various sustainable pro environment & adaptive measures through climate resilient farming activities.
The forest cover is being reduced year after year. Let us join hands and take up sustainable income & employment generating massive plantation activity. We have wonderful such project plans on hand to implement.
It is not about how much wealth we have created for our children but clean water, pure oxygen & disaster free world make the difference. “Let us arise, awake and stop not till the green globe is achieved.” www.guessfoundation.org
Thank You
