Protesters across continents waved placards and chanted slogans in what could be the biggest ever demonstration over global warming caused by humans.
While the physical impacts of climate change, such as damage to city infrastructure or disruption in food production, are relatively easy to grasp, the impacts of climate change go well beyond the physical structures and systems around us. Climate change is also significantly impacting human wellbeing, a more intangible and hard to measure the consequence. How can you make a difference? Watch the video by Greta Thunberg and George Monbiot made on the climate crisis – video A MUST WATCH.

Reminders & Upcoming Event Suggestions
Story Trails - India exists in her stories
The sights you see are but a small part of her charm. To truly experience India, try sampling the local life, with its assortment of customs, traditions, and stories.
Story trails was born with the idea of sampling India through her stories; Of taking our guests to savor local sights and sounds, but through the eyes of a storyteller; Of going beyond the sights themselves, and uncovering characters and customs that made these places come alive.
I am hoping to coordinate events with Story Trails based on your interest. Have a look at what they have to offer. Here is the link to their website. You can attend this individually or with a group. I'm leaning more towards a group as we could offer transportation to and fro from the tour chosen if need be.
Fill in the form to the tour you would like to attend and I will then revert back to you.
