In a recent report published in DW, now the people of Norway are preferring electric car over conventional petrol and diesel cars. The country has set a milestone of totally removing all the conventional type cars by 2025. Approximately 54.3% of total cars that were bought in the year 2020 were the electric one. In 2019 this data was on 42.4% which clearly shows the recent increase in Battery operated electric vehicles usage.

The car distributors has expected this tread will further increase in 2021 and so on and in this way by 2025 the country will become totally free from the conventional diesel and petrol based cars.

Natural regeneration: a step towards restoring the forest cover

  Video link In a video(link given at the top) published in world economic forum highlights how Natural regeneration could be an effective idea to restore the forest cover. It is based upon the principle of leave the nature in its own condition so that it grows naturally and heals by itself. I does not means taking no action but instead highlights on planting more native trees in the forests.These should be no human interference in the forest cover for building made made structures. It will promote the growth of ecology and biodiversity of the nature. Again, by following this approach it is expected that it will observe 10% of annual carbon dioxide emission of  UK and quarter of  green house gas worldwide.

I have always wanted to learn to swim so that I could get rid of this hydrophobia. Even there are instances when this panic grew more in mind. For example, I remember traveling on a ferry in the holy river Ganga to go to a pilgrimage site with my parents in my childhood days. Once, there was a time when we could not see a sign of land even to the horizon range. And we were surrounded by water from all directions.

Again, there are very similar instances, when my parents went on some beach to enjoy holidays but I always used to avoid going deep into the waves because of the f...
