Dear friends,

 with trees all around delhi disappearing or marked for felling , the very
prospect of grey synthetic landscapes and scary endless summers await and
then the sheer pain of watching one of natures most magnificient creations -
trees - being cut mindlessly for metro, high capacity buses, road widening,
commonwealth games village, tunnel road, signature bridge and other
"development" projects
what is the city going to be like -?


urge you to share thoughts, feelings and energy for action -

please join us and to begin with can you sign this petition ?
