World environment day


June 5 World env day was spl this year as i got time off office and to go to one of my colleague's land were Admin people had arranged for plantations to be done. We were taken in cabs, a group of 10 ppl headed for redhills, near madhavaram. We stopped for brk fst at woodlands drive in hotel, near stella mary's on cathederal rd.


I was very glad at the prospect of going to that hotel, for i had never been ther, eventho i had passed by it many times. But it turned out to be a big flop. It was such a prime location and such a vast facility that was wasted. The service was very poor and the food was no spl. But the green ambience was very good. Lots of cars were driving in making me wonder wat really attracted them, it probably was the facility that they served in the car.


And then we reached the land in redhills. the area was mostly barren with few houses dotting the place. there were mostly thorn bushes. the land for the purpose had been cleared with the help of jcbs the prev day. we donated around 60 saplings to be planted. some of them coconut treelings and others pungs. we planted some for photos sake and left the rest to the gardeners.


Thanks to the Admin departments initiative , i thot we had done something worthwhile.
