Brilliant program to turn pine leaves into biochar in Indian 🇮🇳Himalayas. Pine leaves and needles are a major hazard in Himachal Pradesh. Dry at the forest floor they create ample conditions for forest fires. Now the Government of Himachal Pradesh and local people are turning the problem into an opportunity ProClime has developed an indigenous Indian technology turning the leaves into biochar, oil and vinegar. Creating jobs, protecting nature and people. Bravo!

The most wonderful travel experience on planet earth. Cruising through the beautiful landscapes of China 🇨🇳 in 350 km per hour. Absolute comfort, eating good food, trains always on time. China the last fifteen years has built 45 000 km high speed rail - that is a distance from Beijing to Paris return, three times.

Brilliant rejuvenation of city river in Vadodara 🇮🇳! The Vishwamitri River has caused a lot of pain to this historic city in Gujarat. Now flooding will be controlled by building of dams and lakes. 48 kilometer of river front will be brought back to old splendor - with beautiful plants and varied fauna - as well as playgrounds, cafes and vendor shops at the river front. There are even crocodiles in Vishwamitri and a sanctuary will be established. Congrats to the good people of Vadodara and my friend city commisioner Arun Mahesh Babu for extraordinary work!

After spending nine years in a cave in Henan contemplating the fate of humanity he came out teaching the Right Ways. Thats the start of what is known as Zen Buddhism, later spreading to Japan, Korea and beyond. He saw that the monks were in bad physical shape and started martial arts. Thats what became Kong Fu. The amazing, wonderful story of the Shaolin Temple, linking the great Indian and Chinese civilizations:
