  • Every week, Eco India brings you stories of innovations from across India and Europe, and the people who make them possible. Our top story this week looks at environmentalist Rakesh Khatri, who has been teaching people to build hand-made nests for sparrows, birds that have been rendered virtually homeless in the urban jungle of Delhi.

    Highlighting peoples who are doing good for the nature is not only inspiring us but also providing them a platform where they are get praised for their work. I highly appreciate your sincere efforts towards bringing into limelight
    something which has not been done by the current media who are busy in something which matters them i.e. their company rather than the society.
    Which is why there is certain amount of decrease in trust of the media
    which is highly justified.

    Rakesh Sir is an inspiration for me and many more. Delhi state bird, Sparrows once were so common but now the number has dwindled that we rarely see them. Sir helped our school students also to make these nests and were instrumental in making them eco warriors .Lots of regards for great environmentalist like Khatri Sir.

  • @abuzaransari654
    @abuzaransari654 5 років тому +3

    Plz read this criticism, although I truly appreciate your intention to do good. But sometimes only intention is not all enough to bring harmony. A couple of month ago the same idea came to me. 10s of sparrow come to my window in morning & evening time as there is tall tree outside to my building. I started doing the same what you're doing. Problem what I felt is that, by practising the ready-made nest, sparrows will loose their knowledge to built the nest from the scrap. Hence their next to next generation will be totally unaware about their sacred art practiced by their ancestors. And they will be dependent to human being. Making them lazy & dependent is not the role of human.
    Solution: Our role is just to use the natural resources in a way that other species can also use it as per their need. This collectivism of utilising natural resources is the only way to maintain the harmony among the species on earth.
