The ideal carbon content of soil in farming lands should be 2 or higher .
Majority of places in India has carbon content less than 0.5 . Burning stubble not just reduces it further but destroys the good microbial environment too which is crucial for soil fertility
It’s not just air pollution but soil and water pollution too
As India braces for Delhi - Mumbai "pollution season" and accompanied protests (we can all predict this), do read my post below.
Attached is a photo of Singapore in media some days ago. It seems their pollution level had gone to hazardous levels.
Not because the well managed and clean city-state did any mistake, but because of Indonesia burning their forests.
The fires of Indonesia themselves seem a little suspicious. They didn't happen naturally but were lit widely by humans - specifically companies. Right at a time when the wind will turn towards Singapore.
So the Singapore govt is now taking some extreme steps like going after these culprit companies even if they are based outside Singapore. Good work by their govt.
But here's what Indians need to understand. Delhi or Mumbai pollution getting worse at this time of the year is not because of automobile, not because of road dust, not because of construction activity as they are all always blamed.
They do contribute their bit, but never as much as farm fires. Just like Singapore facing Indonesian farm and forest fires, Indian cities face farm fires lit by our Anna Datas in many provinces.
The govt and local authorities are afraid of them. They have already been encouraged to use machines and compactors but they wont. If authorities go to tell them to use it, they may get violent and force the authorities to burn the farms themselves.
Now what I feel is going on is some kind of deliberate burning at the right time, using wind direction, to cause pollution in Delhi and Mumbai. Just like Singapore is being hit with pollution from Indonesia by some companies.
So people can protest all they want against Delhi and Mumbai govt in the coming months. They can imagine if they do a "regime change" this pollution issue will go away. But this pollution isn't going away until farm burning stops.
To the human senses and beyond , everything is connected in the universe
Most basic rules of every construction and destruction are finite
During green revolution in India , United States pushed an industrialized, chemical-heavy agricultural model to secure American corporate markets, export surplus chemicals, and keep India out of the Soviet sphere of influence. The destruction of Indian agriculture and health was the result of a short-sighted, profit-driven system that completely ignored ecological sustainability in favor of immediate, explosive yields.
Heavy chemical leaden agriculture is not just hazardous to health but it’s non sustainable too . Gradually farmers must learn traditional ways again with right scientific inputs in reviving agricultural land and increasing productivity
There has never been anyone ever and there will be none who truly succeeded or maintained success without good wishes and prayers of majority
A quick summary of #Nobel prizes from year 2021-2026
@NobelPrize
From chaotic patterns and quantum spins,
A story of code and creation begins.
The sandbox was built in the shadow of light,
Where entangled particles shattered the night.
Then came the catalysts, small and sublime,
Quantum dots ticking the clock of our time,
Until the great shift when the algorithmic mind
Was crowned by the masters of what we designed.
But a mind without muscle is trapped in the air,
So we forged the new hardware, sustainable, rare—
Quantum circuits and structures of porous design,
To power the future and scale the divine.
Now the dots all connect to the world we must make:
Feeding the machine with the data we take—
From the flashes of neurons that guide how we think,
To the ghost-like neutrinos at the universe’s brink.
Six years of discovery, woven as one,
A blueprint for what has so quickly begun:
The rise of the code, and the desperate decree
For the laws and the guardrails to keep humans free.
Fearing sanction on Nobel prize committee itself after Donald trump has imposed sanctions on international criminal court just after peace prize was given to a south African judge , the committee May consider Nobel prize in economics for trump for reinventing war and studying it’s effects on American and global economics leading to multipolar world
