Now the trend is to use all natural products and eat natural food. Do you think that we would be able to minimize the harm done to the nature and ourselves by using artificial products in the first place. Plus do you think since we have been on artificial things for such a long time, natural things would work for us?

I think that if we all try just a little bit until it becomes routine and then just a little bit more living in a more natural way will become easy. I don't think we can completely mend the damage that has been done to our planet but I think that if we are carefull of packaging and waste we can certainly slow down extra damage. I have changed to using hot soap free soapy water lemon, salt, white vinigar and bicarbinate of soda for a lot of my cleaning, and boil eucalyptus leaves etc to make disinfectant. To be honest it is saving me money and my home smells good too. I do still use bleach etc but not unless I have to. My favourite easy tip is to buy cotton dishclothes instead of disosable ones, they are really cheap and can go through the washer again and again, which is also a saving for your purse. I have a fantastic little book called 1001 ways to save the planet and has a lot of easy things as well as the more extreme ideas.

Man thoughts he can dominate the nature. Nature has been reminding its powers - tsunami, earthquake, landslides, floods, devastating winds. As you said, off late,man started respecting nature - organic manure for fields, organic foods, more greens and vegetables in the food, rainwater harvesting, herbal remedies, yoga for health etc.

hi,When people realise the hazardous effects of using inorganic products like chemicals,plastic...Now the people thinking and all governments prompting organic food.The chemical residues in the food items cause so many diseases including immortality.So in india also just we are starting to grow organic food crops.In western countries,they already prefering organic chicken,meat,vegetables and even clothes also.I know the procedure of growing the crops with orgnic farming procedure.But cost wise some what more,for that extent we will get benefit.
