WE MAY LIVE IN THE 21ST CENTURY, BUT RIGHT NOW, MOST OF OUR MINDS HAVE BECOME COMPLETELY ROTTEN TO THE CORE. TECHNOLOGIES, GADGETS, INVENTIONS ARE EXCESSIVELY CONSUMING US EVERY MINUTE. VIRTUAL REALITY HAS KNOCKED US OFF THE FLOOR. NOWADAYS, PEOPLE JUST DON'T CARE FOR OTHERS AND THE SURROUNDING THINGS. DURING THIS WHOLE SELFISH PROCESS, OUR PLANET HAS COME TO A STANDSTILL. IT IS BEING EATEN AWAY BY OUR OWN CRUEL DEEDS.
TO ELABORATE, SOME OF THE MANY EXAMPLES ARE-- POLLUTION OF ALL KINDS, GLOBAL WARMING, ACID RAIN, DRAINAGE CONGESTION, UNEVEN CLIMATE CHANGE, ETC. AND WHAT ARE WE DOING???? ONE THING WE SHOULD BE AWARE ABOUT IS, THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT THE ROOT CAUSE OR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR EVERY MAJOR ISSUE THAT CROPS UP. WE CANNOT BLAME IT EVERY TIME. AS CITIZENS OF OUR COUNTRY, WE MUST STRIVE ON OUR LEVEL BEST IN IMPLEMENTING THE 'GO GREEN' LIFESTYLE.
WE MAY NOT REALIZE AT PRESENT, BUT OUR NEGLIGENT ACTIONS ARE ALREADY ON THEIR COURSE TO HIT US BACK WITH MORE INTENSITY. THIS WORLD BELONGS TO EVERY LIVING CREATURE- EVEN PLANTS AND TREES. MOREOVER, OUR LIFE CANNOT SUSTAIN WITHOUT THE PRECIOUS ABIOTIC FACTORS. NO SUSTAINABILITY CAN EXIST WITHOUT AIR, SOIL, MINERALS, SUNLIGHT AND WATER. WE ONLY REALIZE THE NEED OF WATER DURING WATER CUTS OR DROUGHTS: WHY NOT EVERY MOMENT?? WHY NOT WHEN WE HAVE IT IN PLENTIFUL?? IF WATER IS LIFE, DO YOU HAVE ANY RIGHT TO MISUSE IT?? WE ALSO TAKE THE PRESENCE OF TREES FOR GRANTED AND WE ACT AS IF WE HOLD AN AUTHORITY OVER THEM. BUT WE HAVE FAILED TO REALIZE THAT LIFE HAS NEVER MOVED AN INCH WITHOUT THEM.
BUT EVERY PROBLEM HAS A SOLUTION. WE CAN USE TECHNOLOGY FOR THE GOOD BY SHARING THOUGHTS ON ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS ONLINE. THE GREAT A.P.J. ABDUL KALAM HAD SAID THAT EDUCATION IS THE MOST POWERFUL WEAPON TO BRING A CHANGE. THOSE FEW OUT THERE WHO ARE GETTING THIS OPPORTUNITY, DO DIRECT ITS POSITIVE OUTCOMES TOWARDS WORLD PROGRESS. IF STILL NOTHING IS STIRRING IN YOUR MIND ABOUT THE PRESENT SITUATION, ASK YOURSELF---- ARE WE REALLY PREPARED TO FACE THE TOMORROW?????
It was in 1945, fresh after World War II that Mr. Vannevar Bush advised President Harry Truman to invest heavily in science, with a document titled ‘Science — the Endless Frontier.' Science, indeed any creative endeavour, has an ever expanding frontier.
It is with the apt title “climbing the limitless ladder” that Professor Chintamani Nagesa Ramachandra Rao (CNR Rao, or CNR as we all know him) has written his life story (IISc Press-WSPC, 2010). Just as Bush advised Truman, CNR has been advising five Prime Ministers of India.
He was a member of the Science Advisory Council (SAC) to Indira Gandhi, and has been chairing the SAC to Rajiv Gandhi, Narasimha Rao, IK Gujral, and Manmohan Singh.
With this rich experience, he trod through the corridors of South Block into the Prime Minister's Office with advice of direct value to Indian science.
It is when he returns to India in 1959, and starts his job with meagre facilities at IISc Bangalore that we see CNR of today in the making.
He wrote his first book on ultraviolet and visible spectroscopy here, making use of his time, and also filling a gap. This was one of the most popular books of the period.
A pity this vital aspect of modernisation, which he led, is not given enough pages in his book.
It is when he is given a free hand to start and lead new things that we see CNR in full steam and spirit.
If IITK is an example, the Solid State and Structural Chemistry unit at IISc, and the Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) stand testimony. Mentoring students and dozens of youngsters — each one a star in his own right — does so as well.
It is through his ability to interact with others, to win them over with jokes and persuasion that he finds his way..
An autobiography imposes constraints. And a biography is too early for one who is still in the prime of his career.
At the end of each year, when you meet him, you hear him say: “this has been my best year.”
To one who cheerfully advises youngsters: “don't be shy of publishing,” here's wishing him that let every year continue to be his best!
