Dear Madam/Sir

Greetings

Thanks for your response. I have seen your design/model. This is very pleasant and excellent undoubtedly. sasrai-Movement is in 100% agreement with what you have designed.

 

I am sorry I failed to produce my feelings to you properly. Our appeal is a bit different. Our observation is message given here is not clear enough for the mass people to follow and practice. Since 2009 we have been trying to get the idea of mass people on WED Theme. They don’t find their doings or following here. This is why we appeal `T’ shirt should bear some simple and specific message for the mass people that they could translate it into their plan and action.

 

As for example since 2004 we raised voices `save a bit, reserve, preserve, rejuvenate and conserve resources’ that UNEP has taken in 2012 WED theme Think.Eat.Save. Regarding this message mass people stated to us `We are poor, we are in lack of daily food, and we have nothing to do here.’ This is a message for the rich and asks them to be caring. Main part of 2015 theme `Consume with Care’ mass people not clear about how they could be caring. This is accurate, agreeable for expert/learned person working in the field of environment.

 

In sharing session of Local Government Leaders and different level Officials it is originated, they are not clear about how they could be caring. I hope you will find the same scenario in other country also. This is why we appeal making it simple and specific that each one can realize and practice in her/his personal, family, office and community.

save a drop of water

plant at least a Native Tree

waste no food

avoid personal car

no more junk food

avoid one time use

prefer home made

If we look back the theme of 2009 'Your Planet Needs You– Unite to Combat Climate Change' I think we should consider `T’ shirt other BCC material design. High profile designer do such a high level model but for the mass mobilization we need it as simple as possible.

 

Climate change is the biggest threat to the humanity we must involve each one across the globe and that demands simple and specific message that might be workable by each.

 

`Seven Billion Dreams. One Planet. Consume with Care'.is very nice for the expert/learned, mass people don’t get practicable message for them. We like to have translated it `Earth is shared island Dreams of 7 billions Human, Infinite Plants, Animals, Microorganism, Demand special Care, `CONSUME WITH CARE.’

I hope I am clear to you. Global community is getting messages Tremor in Nepal, biggest Storm in New Zealand and historical devastated flood in The United States. Different study warned us number of disasters and intensity both will increase day by day. We must involve each one in fighting against the rebellious nature. Otherwise we will be defeated and history will not forgive us. Since 2004 sasrai-Movement’s voice ‘we must get each baby caring to each particle of resources’. You see The United States is the top most food wasting country and most of the develop countries are following same way. This situation indicates our message is not even clear to mass people of developed country. In that case how we could expect realization from the mass people of developing or under developed?

 

We believe each has the capacity and responsibility to combat the Climate Change and present planet demands involvement of each across the globe. And UNEP should come forward with that challenge. Our initiative should be pragmatic, effective, purposeful & logical in order to involve each. Like Chinese president I have to say that we have no time to waste. We should start right now.

 

Please consider our appeal.

 

Kindest regards.

NB.

UNSG says climate change “is a humanitarian issue, a development issue, and an issue of security and stability.” USA President in his Berlin speech said the global threat of our time severe storms, Famine and floods, Coastlines vanish, Oceans rise and Climate change.

 

IPCC 5th Assessment Report urges- disrupted climate can do in sea level rise and acidification, aggravated droughts and wildfires, increased storm severity and flooding. Those impacts will grow more severe unless we start reducing global warming pollution, not tomorrow, but now.

 

IPS - Special Issue on COP18 Doha Climate Change Conference 29 Nov, Dec 07, 2012 - state that unsustainable human consumption and production systems are driving changes in average temperatures and weather patterns, "abnormal" is increasingly becoming the norm.

 

Report from the International Energy Agency says we are headed toward an increase in global temperatures of 6.5 °F to 9.5 °F, most of it during the lives of young people alive today. And I do believe we never desire such situation for our young daughter and son. We must have step to stop this undesired trend.

 

Planet is at a turning point cause Person crazy to Profit, Property and Possession. Planet under irreversible Catastrophic Climate Change sequences Famine and Flood, Severe Storm, Coast line Vanish and Ocean Rise.

 

We must have a mission to bridle on our consumption across the globe that needs significant change in mindset among all, `save a bit, reserve, preserve, rejuvenate and conserve resources.’ sasrai only the path to attain the target. In absence of sasrai feeling, thinking and practice we can’t offer a habitable earth for our next generation.
