Actions to Stop Global Warming
Global warming; greenhouse effect; whatever term you may want to call it, the damage in the ozone layer has definitely caused instability of the natural processes in the environment. Basically, global warming is the term referred to the increase of the heat in the world due to the damage in the ozone layer caused by the emission of harmful chemicals in the environment. The ozone layer is responsible for distributing enough solar heat and light to Earth without costing the natural flow of the ecosystem. Nonetheless, it has slowly diminished its natural thickness, which resulted to the so-called global warming.
Scientists report that it would take thousands of years for the ozone layer to heal completely even if we must all stop the emission of carbons and other harmful chemicals into the air at once. But it does not mean that we must not do anything about it because there are still a number of ways on how we can stop the phenomenon from blasting. One of the most common means to stop global warming is to observe the 3 Rs namely, reduce, reuse, and recycle. Recycle things that are still functional like your old PC or old mobile phone. Use only products that can be used again like paper bags, which can be used to pack your groceries or to put those seedlings into.
Another way is to switch to LED lighting system. In this technology era, I bet you have already heard about the efficiency and advantages of using light emitting diodes or LED, which are actually a topnotch in converting its energy into light instead of heat. Its added bonus includes the bulb’s long lifespan, absence of ultraviolet rays, and bright white light.
Use public transportation often and use your car on weekends. If you have a bike, run errands using this option. Did you know that a typical vehicle emits about 20% more carbon monoxide than buses and trains? Did you also know that the former uses up 30% more energy compared to the latter? You can also save on fuel and skip yourself from the hassles of traffic jams if you use public transportation.
Consider installing energy-efficient products. The advent of LED computer monitors, energy-efficient dryers and refrigerators and television units, and the likes all have a purpose, and that is to encourage wise consumers to use products that don’t waste energy. If you switch to this type of appliances, you won’t only enjoy modern appliances, but you will also enjoy lower electric bills.
Finally, plant a tree and always unplug all unused appliances. Most appliances are actually consuming energy even when turned OFF, making unplugging more efficient. Make these a habit; spread the word; and inculcate the benefits of going green to your loved ones.

Investment opportunities for NRIs in Hyderabad.
Andhra
Pradesh receives the highest amount of money remitted by NRIs. A number of NRIs hailing from Andhra Pradesh
have approached the government with ambitious investment proposals, too.
Is it just about the returns or do NRIs from Andhra Pradesh want to
invest in their home state to connect with their home state forever? Are
you, too, from Andhra Pradesh and thinking of investing in this state?
Here’s some information you can use.
Despite
living abroad for years, most NRIs are strongly attached to their home
state. It’s no different for NRIs from Andhra Pradesh. Consider their
support for charity and various development projects. Dr Parilla Malla
Reddy, President and CEO of Bactolac Pharmaceuticals, an NRI from AP,
donated over $250,000 to help villages in his hometown in Andhra
Pradesh. Apart from philanthropic activities, many NRIs are considering
investing in the growing towns of Andhra Pradesh as well.
Why invest in Hyderabad
Are
you an NRI wondering how to buy a home in Andhra Pradesh? There’s good
news for you. Thanks to the Indian government, it’s now easier for
people of Indian origin to own a piece of property in their home state.
India is a buoyant market, and Hyderabad is better known as a hi-tech
city today. In fact, Hyderabad has been rated as the 4th
largest growing city in the world (Source: US International Market
Research Report). The growing cityscape has led the Hyderabad
Metropolitan development authority to step up the infrastructure and
facilities in the city.
What you should know
Interested
in buying property here? Should you invest with the help of a property
lawyer or would you be able to manage without one? You’ll be glad to
know that as an NRI investor, you don’t require RBI approval to buy
property in your home state. However, ensure that you have a PAN card
ready before you to invest. Follow these guidelines, too.
- Get all the information on the property, seller and any agent you’re dealing with.
- Make sure that you make all your payments through your NRI/NRE account.
- Hire a property lawyer if you’re based abroad and if you don’t understand property rules and tax implications.
A
large number of NRIs are buying property in their home state. Andhra
Pradesh has emerged as one of the most favored destinations for real
estate or property investment in India not just for NRIs hailing from Hyderabad
Andhra Pradesh.

Where should the Plants / Trees to be planted in the vicinity of one’s plot or Villa?
Having a green area in the vicinity of any home or around its axis has been known to cast a positive effect on the inmates of the house and it means having a small dedicated green belt in the vicinity of one’s plot or Villa.
Usually most people leave an empty area near the entrance of their plot for a green belt or a small garden. Planting of trees and plants in and around the house can promote the positive energies entering the house enhancing the health, spiritual and monetary aspects on the inmates. No thorny plants should be planting in any location inside the boundary wall of the plot.
Creepers or clingers like money plant are best suited on the main boundary wall of the house. The green effect of the cringers or creeper plants brings a positive vibe and harmonious blend in the overall vastu compliance of the plot.
Plain green lawns or green belts with grass are best suited in the eastern direction as well as the north depending on the availability of empty space in the plot design. Water bodies in the east and north axis along with the green lawn enhances the positive flow of energy.
The plants and their surrounding aura not only help in overall beatification but also churn out healthy vibes and Some traditionally important plants like Tulsi and neem have immensely beneficial medicinal properties and their placement in ones house can help in creating a positive aura.

to the latest logical study we found that this place (north east)
should be very clean and we should not construct or put anything at this
place. In our researches we found that the placement of pooja room at

Actually as per the vastu shastra Ishan corner walk is very good and most developed cause for human beings, in taking view of this they implied this rule as pooja room should be at Ishan corner, and also another two reasons are invented that, Ishan place should always be clean, and Ishan place should always be less weight, in taking consideration of all these factors they implemented this rule as pooja room should be at Ishan corner. Thanks to our elders, well wishers.
1. Pooja room should always be clean and no other things except pooja materials should be kept there.
2. Pooja should not be placed at the Southwest corner of the house.
3. Pooja should not be placed at Ishan
(Northeast) corner of the house.But here with some provisions we can put
or install or construct the pooja room at Ishan corner with care,
before going to do it, better to get suggestion from one experienced
vastu consultant.
4. In pooja room Gods are to be seated at East facing and spatient has to sit and worship God by seeing the towards West side.

Vastu Tips to Increase Positivity in Home
Vastu is a set of principles that most of the home owners believe in, which helps them to lead a blissful life. Vastu
guidelines provide scientific explanations on how to design your house
to bring positive energy. It is always better to take some time out and
search an ideal house or apartment which is built on perfect vastu
guidelines.
Follow these steps to increase positivity:
The most important part of a house is the main entrance, as the main entrance is known as the mouth of the house which brings energy inside the house. According to vastu guidelines, it is always better to avoid buying property which has a door facing south-west direction. As negative energy enters the house from south-west direction and also brings in struggle and misfortune for the people who live in.
The ideal place for kitchen is the South-east direction. Avoid placing kitchen in north or north-east direction, as kitchen is known as the symbol of prosperity so placing in the wrong direction may bring financial as well as health problems.
The main entrance for the door of stability is the master bedroom. According to vastu rules, master bedroom must be in the South-west direction and it is better if you sleep with your head positioning towards the south or west.
According to vastu, toilets and bathrooms should be in south-west corner or in south west direction of the apartment. Since, the wind flows from north-east to south-west direction and if a toilet is placed in the north-east direction then the wind will enter the room flowing through the toilet, which will contaminate the air flow in the rooms.
Inside or the centre of the apartment should be spacious and clean, ensure this area receives good amount of natural light. Blockage of the centre is not ideal in vastu, so rooms, kitchen or toilets should not be placed in the centre of the house. Interestingly, the living room is ideal for the centre from where you can access every room.
Don’ts in Vastu:
It is better to avoid using too much of bright colours in your house like red and purple, it may bring negative energy in your house. In bedroom, red and black colour should be avoided.
Pictures of water or a fountain should be avoided in your bedroom, as keeping these kinds of pictures might affect you negatively.
It is better if you avoid placing mandir/ temple below any bean or cupboard; it may put you under stress. And the right place to keep God statues or pictures is the prayer room and should be avoided in bedroom.
Heavy statues should be avoided in north-east side of the house as it may block your finances.

Rain Water Harvesting System: Its Advantages
Rain water harvesting system
is a technique used in the collection and storage of rain water. Rain
water is collected from many surfaces: rooftops, surface of land, and
rock catchments. Traditional jars and pots are used in the collection.
In recent times, more complex storage systems are used, such as
underground check dams.
The techniques used by Asians and Africans
have arisen from traditional practices that have been adopted by
previous civilizations. Rain water harvesting system till date serves as
a dominant drinking water source, especially in rural regions. Most
common rain water harvesting systems are comprised of three components:
catchment area, collection device, and conveyance system.
Rooftop catchment is the most primitive and basic form of this technique. Simple vessels are used to collect rainwater at the roof’s edge. This basic approach has many variations. Rain water can be collected in gutters that drain to vessel for collection through specially constructed down-pipes. Alternatively, rain water can be diverted from gutters into containers. This can cause particulates to settle down before conveyance to the storage container for domestic utilization.
Because the rooftop serves as the catchment area, the quantity and
quality of rain water depends on the quality of the roofing material and
its total area. Good-quality rain water can be collected from rooftops
made of corrugated iron that is galvanized, asbestos or aluminum sheets
of cement, slates and tiles. Thatched roofs tied together with bamboo
can produce similar quantities of water in a cheaper way. However, it
must be noted that roofs made of bamboo could have health hazards. In a
similar way, roofs containing metallic paint or similar coatings are
unsuitable since they may pass on color and taste to the water that is
collected. The surface of roofs should be regularly cleansed in order to
remove leaves, bird droppings, and dust. This should ensure high
quality of collected water.
Rain water harvesting system can also
feature catchments on land surface. Utilizing ground or land surface to
store water is a far simpler method of rain water collection. This would
involve enhancing runoff capacity on the surface of the land by various
methods. Collection of run-off water with drain pipes and storing
collected water are two such methods. In comparison with techniques of
rooftop catchment, techniques of ground catchment allows more storage of
water from a surface area that is larger.
Benefits of Rain Water Harvesting
1. Save money on water bills by using your own water source
2. Watering Garden
3. No wasting money on water tankers
4. No Water shortage due to water cuts
