Last mile connectivity in transportation and how #csr can help

In Delhi NCR, the last mile connectivity is a major challenge. Metro stations are far from homes, parking at the stations a challenge.

The result: more private cars on the road and more pollution.

How can #CSR help? In more ways than probably we ever imagined

1) Allocate areas to corporates

Every area in the city could be divided into zones. These zones could be given to corporates to manage last mile connectivity and the spends could be used against the 2 percent CSR commitment

2) Electric vehicle manufacturers take over

Lots of companies are manufacturing electric three wheelers. These companies could use a few vehicles and train a few drivers for free service around a determined radius. This again could be debited to the CSR commitment of the company

3) Promote bi-cycles

Allow bicycle companies to offer cycles on rent for full days against a deposit. And develop cycle tracks which are safe. This would also help add to the health of the citizens. The bicycles could be donated by the manufacturer against his #csr commitment

4) Promote specific #csr causes  and encourage companies to focus their funds

Every year, select the top most CSR causes that need the maximum support and encourage companies to invest in these causes. This will help is focusing CSR spends on select causes assuring sufficient investments that can ensure improvements

Do let me know if you have any other ideas that can help us use #csr to make our cities more commutable

The power of travel

We don't meet people like Columbus anymore. Someone who risked everything to travel and find Newlands. Virgin territories for humanity. Today we are so obsessed with our gadgets, that we are moving away from the real world. We are not travelling enough. We are not aware of our surroundings.  We are not one with nature anymore. I'm worried. Are you?

Plastic world!

We stopped being nomads ten thousand years back... And like stagnant water, our decay started. We formed boundaries that never existed before But we became the prisoners within them We let greed take over and we started finding joy outside us God was within us but we looked outside We became obsessed with winning We started killing for fun We chose to be cruel when we should have chosen to be kind We chose to kill when we should have chosen to collaborate We became a society full of plastic A society that glorified materialism A society that was dying from within A plastic world Will we ever come out of this plastic world? No one knows for sure Let's enjoy the nature what's still left Before we might start paying for the air we breathe We are dying as a race We are killing our own selves by eating junk and filling out minds with junk It's got to stop now We must turn back to nature and become free We must return to innocence For happiness and liberty

Warring for peace?

May seem like an oxymoron but that's exactly what we smart human race is doing. We need to look within ourselves to find light. We are all sinking the planet to depression with our fears, negativity, stress and greed. We were so much happier with little. We lived in the moment. Now we live in insta reels. We are going in the wrong direction as a race in the speed of light with no return  Only God can help us. We are so keen to destroy ourselves. May there be sanity to end suffering and may there be peace and happiness for all humans. Help us God. Bless us with your grace. We need you more than ever. Only you can save us God
