  1. The objective of “Sustainable Development” can be achieved through sensible exploitation of natural resources. Water is the most precious natural resources. Scarcity of water is resulting into conflicts in the society; Latur of Maharashtra is the burning example. In its efforts to develop India’s First Smart Village on the concept of Retrofitting, Redevelopment, Green fields, e-Pan, Livelihood; Eco-needs Foundation has created water conservation structures at Dhanora. Overall ground water recharge through these structures including Nalla water conservation, percolation tank, farm pond, treated waste water recharge is 97.49 Million liters per year. let's join hands to save water, let's make people aware about the importance of water, let's join hands for our future. Let's come together for our coming generations.

  5. But if you can, run chicken wire in the concrete or behind the liner, then a very mild electric current into the wore, it accumulates calcium. This is common in piers and docks today to preserve wood (fossilizes it). A small windmill generator supplies the electric.

  7. NOW A DAYS ERRATIC RAINS ARE CAUSING HAVOC TO FARMERS DUE TO CLIMATE CHANGE.GROUND WATER LEVELS ARE GOING DOWN WHEN THE FARMER IS ACTUALLY IN NEED OF IT TO SAVE HIS CROP.WHAT I FEEL IS ,EVERY FARMER SHOULD CONSTRUCT A POND BY EARMARKING AT LEAST 10% TO 20% OF HIS AVAILABLE LAND FOR FARM POND CONSTRUCTION AND SAVE IT FOR PROTECTING HIS CROP FROM THE UNFORESEEN REQUIREMENTS.ALSO THE POND SHOULD BE SAFEGUARDED AND MAINTAINED IN SUCH A WAY THAT IT SHOULD NEVER DRY-UP.
