Can we have a countdown ?

Temeperatures have been soaring across the country. In my own state of Orissa, the change has been pathetic. We had few countable places like Titlagarh, Jharsuguda, Talcher, Angul, Belpahar, Sambalpur et al which have a historic record having high temperatures in the summers. But this time the story has been bad throughout. There has been media coverage on the same but no one is suggesting any action (leave alone doing something)
I sincerely beleive that we are all to blame. We grumble of narrow roads, we love travelling by the biggest four wheeler possible, we are lazy enough even for maintaining a lawn (leave aside a kitchen garden or a papaya tree)....where would these all culminate ? Simple in higher temperature. Mark my words; I have carefully not mentioned anything about industrialisation because in that case tree felling is natural.
I am told in Bhubaneswar alone 2250 trees have been felled in the past 3 years. The capital being just one of the many cities of the state, can I suggest a target of 50000 trees for the entire state in the whole year. The effect of these would come after 4-5 years but it is bound to come. In our rspective families, we would be having atleast a dozen of anniversaries; can we resolve to plant a tree (and maintaining it for atleast 2 more years) besides the normal cake-cutting ceremonies.
I urge all my readers one and all to go ahead, search the nearest vacant space in and around their dwelling and plant a sappling. As the ad of Patek Ohillip goes, "You never actually own a Patek Philippe. You merely look after it for the next generation". lets do it for some cooler years ahead and more important for our next generation. I am going ahead with the countdown from tomorrow, anyone interested may please let me know.
