'Mercury' first silent film in three decades
|
12.4.2018 |
Deccan Herald - Supplements |
Mercury features dancing sensation Prabhu Deva with a host of younger actors. It is the first silent film in India after 30 years.
The last silent film was the Kamal Haasan starrer Pushpaka Vimana, shot in Bengaluru. It remains etched in memory for many.
Karthik Subbaraj, the director of Mercury, says, "I was waiting for the right script to come along and after I wrote Mercury, I couldnt wait to turn it into a silent film. Everything you know about making a film changes when you deal with a silent film."
The film deals with how industrial waste is dumped on the outskirts of any city.
"It talks about how corporates exploit villages in the name of development and progress. The ill-effects of toxic waste are visible in several parts of the country and many people are affected by this sort of mindless development," he adds.
Karthik has very carefully chosen his actors. Prabhu Deva, Shashank Purushotham, and Remya Nambeesan, are playing pivotal roles. He feels there is something unique about Prabhu Devas body ... |

India's solid waste disposal capacity to increase: Minister
|
10.4.2018 |
General News |
India's capacity to dispose solid waste in a scientific manner will be increased in the near future, a Union minister said here today.
"Currently, 25 per cent of the solid waste is disposed in a scientific manner, while the rest 75 per cent is disposed in a traditional way," Union Minister for Housing and Urban Affairs Hardeep Singh Puri said.
"According to an estimate, Indian cities generate 1.7 lakh tonnes of solid waste on a daily basis," he added.
Puri was speaking at the inaugural session of 8th Regional 3 R (reduce, recycle and reuse) Forum meet in Asia and the Pacific.
He said the possibility of taking Japan's assistance for the scientific disposal of solid waste will be considered.
"I know that in Tokyo, solid waste is disposed in a very systematic manner. I will encourage my ministry officials to explore the possibilities of taking the help of Japanese government or private companies there for the disposal of solid waste," Puri said.
He expressed confidence that . |

Don't allow Union Carbide escape court action, groups urge PM
|
31.3.2018 |
General News |
Organisations representing the survivors of the Bhopal gas tragedy said today "inaction" on part of the government may lead to Union Carbide escaping criminal liability for the 1984 industrial disaster forever.
Madhya Pradesh and Union governments are showing "apathy" on the issue and this has raised the possibility of the American corporation, whose plant in Bhopal was the site of the disaster, escaping criminal liability, they alleged.
Addressing a press conference here, leaders of the organisations said Dow Chemical, the owner of Union Carbide, after merging with another American MNC DuPont, has announced plans to split into three entities by June 2019.
According to the leaders, Union Carbide is running away from facing the criminal charges, including culpable homicide, for more than 30 years.
The US company, as per criminal laws, will cease to be criminally liable for the tragedy, in which thousands of people lost their lives, after the three-way split, they said.

More microplastics on Maha, K'taka beaches than Goa: study
|
22.3.2018 |
General News |
Microplastics, one of the carriers of pollution to the marine environment, have been found moreon the beaches of Karnataka and Maharashtra as compared to Goa, according to a scientific study.
The microplastics are extremely small pieces of plastic debris in the environment, resulting from the disposal and breakdown of consumer products and industrial waste.
During a study conducted on different beaches along the coast of Maharashtra, Karnataka and Goa, the researchers found significant variations in the distribution pattern of plastic contaminants on various locations in the three states.
They claimed to have found a high abundance of microplastics - like films, fibres, fragments and pellets - on the beaches of Maharashtra and Karanataka.
"However, comparatively fewer microplastic pellets were found along the coast of Goa," says the research paper of scientists of the Goa-based National Institute of Oceanography (NIO), one of the constituent laboratories of the Council of |

Toxic waste, callous treatment
|
10.3.2018 |
deccanherald.com |
Deadly, hazardous and toxic, untreated bio-medical waste could trap us in all in a twister of nightmarish infections. Isnt this reason enough to bring every healthcare setup in the city under a stringent regulatory system with the utmost urgency? Not so, if a damning report based by the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) is any indication.
First, what do the rules say: The Bio-Medical Waste Management Rules, 2016 (BMW Rules) mandate every Health Care Establishment (HCE) generating BMW to take all steps to ensure that such waste is handled without any adverse effect on the human health and environment.
Glaring lacuna
The infectious wastes are required to be collected, transported, treated and disposed of strictly in accordance with the BMW rules. The CAG report found a glaring lacuna in the enforcement of this rule by the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board (KSPCB): "KSPCB does not have details of the mode of treatment and disposal of BMW of 3,473 HCEs in the state.

5.3.2018 |
General News |
The National Green Tribunal today slapped a cost of Rs 50,000 each on the Delhi and the Uttarakhand governments for not filing a reply to the show cause notice issued regarding the management of biomedical hazardous wastes.

The matter would now be heard on March 19.
The tribunal had asked them to file a detailed reply about which agencies were authorised in terms of the Municipal Solid Wastes (Management and Handling) Rules to collect, transport, dispose of the hazardous wastes.

General News |
Is this beautiful world fighting for its very existence? Will the coming generations be in a position to enjoy every element of nature? Are we constrained to live in a highly polluted environment? Have the sources of our water run dry and have the sources that are still running become contaminated?The simple question that arises from this is that if everything goes on at this pace and the pollution level continues to rise and the speed of implementing improvement measures remains mediocre then what will happen to this world? What are those people, who are using more resources than they actually need, doing for the environment?Together with the United Nations, India had compromised on the Green Rating in 1997. That is, in the case of the greenhouse effect due to industrialisation, intensive forests will be developed and a large part of the land would be converted by planting trees.By doing so, the compensation for the environment would be very minimal, but the forests would still be ... |
