the pristine athirapally waterfalls pictured. this amazing place, the already dammed and abused chalakudy river all are under threat due to the ill planned construction of the the athirapally dam. development at any cost should be a huge no-no for a people intensive and ecologically dependent country like india.
india - development or developedment
india's rapid growth is coming at a speed (a speed aided by massive environmental and human justice violations) that will benefit only those who have already benefited. i call this 'developedment', meaning, more and more development for those who have already developed, but more and more destruction for the 2 crucial pillars of the nation, namely the ecology and the ecology dependent people.
