About "Paper or Plastic: What will you go for?" topic:
This is a common phrase "Paper or Plastic" that we are confronted by more often these
days, as everybody is talking about green. We have seen even hard core
environmentalists stumble when asked this in the retail store line,
even they get confused. As paper & plastic is the most used interms
of packaging in various industries and where for Paper trees are cut
and if one uses plastic then it is a non-degradable substance.
The topic is really about comparisons between comparable technologies and
how they stack up in terms of green manufacturing. So, lets see what our
green conscious people talk on this, which is the better option
"Plastic or Paper", or what are the alternatives for Paper & Plastic?

Today I read these three diferrent news story related to environment. 1. Desert geopark in China : What is a geopark ? Geopark is a place where rare geological landforms are preserved in an undisturbed state and where low impact recreation, scientific research, and educational activities can be pursued. The total planned area for this geopark is said to be 630.37 square km. It will be functioning as a museum as well as as scientific research center. 2. World Car free day : On September 22nd 200 cyclists celebrated World Car Free day by using cycles. This was an attempt to keep traffic jam and pollution at bay. Though the event went almost unnoticed and no similar effort was seen anywhere else. I wonder why do such news go unnoticed when certain channels are busy showing what do star eat and how thye go to the gym and what do they wear. I was surprised to see zero comments in the article where I read this news. I wonder what kind of news do people normally look for? 3. Britan will...

Dear friends, I am a science fiction writer. I dabble in indian fiancial systems too. Primarily my lure and love for science is more than anything i am interested in. To many science fiction may appear flights of fancy or fantasy. To me it is not so. My science fictions all have science as ingredient with a future speculation/theory. Many science fictions have become realities. Take the case of moon travel. Jules verne foresaw journy to moon and wrote his science fiction "From the earth to the Moon". Arthur C.Clarke wrote about geostationary satellites. Simply put, Science Fiction is science blended with fiction. It requires a special imgaination and scientific bent of mind to come up with a science fiction. A science background is essential to write science fictions as one has to grasp the nuances of science to enlarge on the ideas conceived. Science fiction has come to be accepted as a literature by itself. It is dubbed as a literurate ideas with current...
