Sad Story of Using Papers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pl take some time of yours to READ and try to implement/follow/ propagate... with your heart, after all it is our World we have to take care of it. It worthwhile a try.

The following is the mail received regarding the usage of papers in office ,

We all are aware that we are using paper for taking print outs for all of our purpose ,we are taking printouts , if we are not finding it satisfactory we are tearing off those , & we are taking again, we are taking printouts in white papers to show it to our higher officials also , the following is the brief history of paper we are using ,

* For every three thousand & five hundred papers (3500) ,that we are using three trees are cut in the primary rain forest . we know that around sixty percent of the Earth's ecolife are dwelling in the primary rainforest . this causes a serious depletion of natural vegetation ,which affects the various factors in the nature , the food cycle is broken which causes the severe extinsion of the various animals , millions of tons of top soil are eroded which causes land slides & the earth becomes useless for ordinary purpose also . The green house effect is also worth mentioning here , which leads us to another ice age.If we are not stop cutting the trees we will have to show the future generation the animals which we have seen , touched & lived with in the same paper that we have produced from the forest trees.

Here we should have to consider the environmental effects that are caused during the production & processing of the paper,

Around 1000 liters of water goes to washing of wood pulp during the initial stage . in that around 70 percent are wasted & balance only 30 % of water is only recycled ,which causes a severe drain the potable water & the water table of the land . the waste water causes additional problems like polluting the ponds ,streams ,rivers causing the death of fishes & aquatic life forms.

The power requirement of producing a tonn of paper is around 217 units ( for initial processing , the secondary & refining process not included) , which we all know that are produced by burning the fossil fuels which adds up the effect of GREEN HOUSE gases.

Also we are investing money in procuring of stationary especially papers & paper related products . Also we are incurring money to control the information printed in the papers ,on the fear of leaking important information about the company & persons.

By looking up the above facts we can come to a conclusion that usage of paper is to be reduced ,for that we can follow the points mentioned below,

1) Never take print outs - We know that this is highly impossible , but we should also consider that we can now send message to any body through electronic form ,even to their mobile phones , so we should reduce the hard copy & use only soft copy for draft copies, after it got approval ,we can finally take a fair copy if any needed .

2) We can take rough copies in one side papers , so that we can reduce the paper usage through 20- 30 % .

3) We can take casual matters / to do things /remainders in one side paper rather than a fresh paper , as the paper will become useless after the end of the day.

4) internal communication brouchers / check lists / inter department memos can be sent in one side paper or electronic form rather than fresh papers.

5)We should always insist in recycled papers while buying , so that we can save another tree .

6) Now a days papers are made from sugar cane remains / grass also , we should prefer those rather than others.

7) we can use alternate materials like plastic sheets , rayon, cloth for taking print outs , it will look different for presentation than the traditional look.

last but not the least ,

WE ARE THE ONLY SPECIES IN THE WORLD WHICH CAN SAVE ALL OTHER SPECIES ,INCLUDING OURSELVES,

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE A PRINT OUT OF THIS MAIL FOR SHOWING IT TO OTHERS ,BUT FORWARD THIS TO AS MANY PERSONS U KNOW.

OR TAKE A SINGLE COPY OF THIS MAIL IN ONE SIDE PAPER & DISPLAY IT SO THAT ALL IN YOUR SCHOOL, COLLEGE ,OFFICE WILL HAVE A LOOK & WILL TRY TO SAVE A TREE , OUR LIFE & OUR EARTH .

IF WE ALL STOP USING ONLY ONE PAPER A SINGLE DAY & REUSE /RECYCLE PAPER WE CAN SAVE THOUSANDS OF TREES,

LONG LIVE OUR UNIVERSE.

Team Spirit


It was a sports stadium.Eight Children were standing on the track to participate in the running event.

* Ready !
* Steady!!
* Bang !!!

With the sound of Toy pistol, all eight girls started running.Hardly have they covered ten to fifteen steps, one of the smaller girls slipped and fell down, due to bruises and pain she started crying.When other seven girls heard this sound, stopped running, stood for a while and turned back,they all ran back to the place where the girl fell down.One among them bent, picked and kissed the girl gently and enquired 'Now pain must have reduced'.All seven girls lifted the fallen girl, pacified her,two of them held the girl firmly and they all seven joined hands together and walked together and reached the winning post.Officials were shocked.Clapping of thousands of spectators filled the stadium.Many eyes we re filled with tears and perhaps it had reached the GOD even!YES.

This happened in Hyderabad, recently !The sport was conducted by! National Institute of Mental Health. All these special girls had come to participate in this event and they are spastic children.Yes, they were mentally retarded.

What did they teach this world?Teamwork?Humanity? Equality among all? .
. . . . . . . ????


Successful people help others who are slow in learning so that they are not felt far behind.Stay connected. An idea can change your life.This is really a great message..spread it!

Don't get Disheartened for being last

A bus carrying only ugly people is involved in a
crash, and everyone on the bus dies.

They go to Heaven. Because of the grief they have
suffered, God decides to grant them one wish each,
before they enter Paradise.

They're all lined up, and God asks the first one what
their wish is.
The person answers, "I want to be beautiful," and so
God snaps His fingers, and it is done.
The second one in line sees this and says "I want to
be beautiful too."
Another snap of His fingers and the wish is granted.
This goes on for a while, but when God is halfway down
the line, the last person in line starts laughing.
When there are only ten people left, this man is
rolling on the floor, laughing .
Finally, God gets to the end of the line and asks the
laughing one what his wish will be.
The man eventually catches his breath, and says: "Make
them all ugly again".



Moral - Don't get disheartened for being last, as you
can still change others lives being last

WE HONORABLE MEN

If a female is reading this article then just realize the value of a
man; and if its a male then feel proud of after reading it!
One day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of a tree above a
river, his axe fell into the river.When he cried out,the Lord
appeared and asked, "Why are you crying?"
The woodcutter replied that his axe has fallen into water, and he
needed the axe to make his living.
The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden axe.
"Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.
The woodcutter replied, "No."
The Lord again went down and came up with a silver axe. "Is this your
axe?" the Lord asked.
Again, the woodcutter replied, "No."
The Lord went down again and came up with an iron axe.
"Is this your axe?" the Lord asked.
The woodcutter replied, "Yes."
The Lord was pleased with the man's honesty and gave him all three
axes to keep, and the woodcutter went home happy.
Some time later the woodcutter was walking with his wife along the
riverbank,and his wife fell into the river.
When he cried out,the Lord again appeared and asked him,"Why are you
crying?"
"Oh Lord, my wife has fallen into the water!"
The Lord went down into the water and came up with Jennifer Lopez.
"Is this your wife?" the Lord asked.
"Yes," cried the woodcutter.
The Lord was furious. "You lied! That is an untruth!"
The woodcutter replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord.. It is a
misunderstanding.
You see, if I had said 'no' to Jennifer Lopez, You would have come
up
with Catherine Zeta-Jones.
> Then if I said 'no' to her, you would have come up with my wife.
Had I then said 'yes,' you would have given me all three.
Lord, I am a poor man, and am not able to take care of all three
wives, so THAT'S why I said yes to Jennifer Lopez."
The moral of this story is: Whenever a man lies, it is for a good
and
honorable reason, and for the benefit of others.

THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...
(SEE BELOW)
HOW MANY ?


...................... 3?


WRONG, THERE ARE 6 -- no joke.
READ IT AGAIN !
The reasoning behind is further down.
The brain cannot process "OF".
Incredible or what? Go back and look again!! Anyone who counts all 6 "F's" on the first go is a genius. Three is normal, four is quite rare.
