Eco-Friendly Chennai(?!!)

The rain poured over Chennai on Sunday, paving way to a ray of hope that there will be an early monsoon this year. And thats what keeps us going. Especially Chennaites, who have seen the water scarcity, this kodai mazhai was a source of infinite energy. I have a few pics taken during this special rain. Will upload it by tomorrow.

As trees get sawed near SPIC in Guindy, I couldn’t avoid the feeling that Madras becomes a desert with such acts. At one side such tree batterings keep happening like a part of life. But on the other hand, from Central Station to Naidu Hall they plant these artificial neon coconut trees that glow in the night. Huh !! What a irony.

  1. I just returned to Chennai on Thursday and saw one of those neon trees at the airport. Too funny: a mix of the old and new, boxy taxis from the 70s and Glitzy neon ;^)
