Galápagos National Park
Note: A edited version of this article was published today in HindustanTimes.com . To go to that article Click Here
The writer, Sandeep Chakravorty (35) is a member of the Indian Foreign Service, presently stationed in Bogotá, Colombia. Is alumnus of the Indian Institute of Forest Management (IIFM), Bhopal. Formerly was with the Society for Promotion of Wastelands Development (SPWD), New Delhi. He is a active NIEPian and a prominent member of our group. Our members can log on to ask further questions to him on Galápagos National Park, a major Eco-Tourism destination.
When as a child I had heard and read about Darwin and the evolution theory, somewhere in the back of the mind words like the Galápagos Islands, Beagle, Turtles, Iguanas had got registered as something mystical, a paradise, some place far off in the middle of nowhere which I could only dream of but never visit.

Seeds of hope : Use of Vegetative Oils as Engine Fuel
by K V Prayukth*
Dependence on foreign sources of energy has always been a bane for the Indian economy. It is the single biggest drain on the foreign exchange reserves of the country and the uncertainty in the prices of international crude has always kept Indian government and planers on tender hooks. An increase of $1 per barrel of crude oil prices adds $425 million to our oil import bill. As India imports 70% of the oil it uses, the country has been hit hard by the increased cost and uncertainty and so is exploring other energy avenues.

The Rural Innovation Phenomenon
It is often said that “need is the mother of all inventions.” Nowhere is this truer than in rural India where every day men and woman devise new methods and means to ease the burdens of their daily lives. These “rural innovations” not only improve the productivity and efficiency of local farmers or artisans, but also have significant environmental and social impact by developing eco-friendly “appropriate” solutions to local problems.
NIEP has tied up with a Indian Venture Fund to recommend promising projects for its Institutional members. Join NIEP today and receive advise on how to go about it?
