Green City



































Our city is certainly Green. Inspite of all kind of environmental destructions, my city just manages not to lose its Green cover. But what to do, there's a concentrated effort to go Red. But all are not intentional. It so happens. 
An example is felling of coconut trees. Most of the houses, even those in the heart of the city, has atleast a couple of coconut trees. But, the house owners are compelled to cut them off. The major reasons for this is the non-availability of labour (for climbing the tree and plucking the coconuts). This results in coconuts getting dried up and fall off by itself. That's a risk. It falls on to the neighbor's plot and over their building. 
I am aware that this issue has caught fire in many cases, ultimately the coconut trees are forced to be cut off.


See the snaps here... My neighbor is cutting off all his coconut trees. It's quite sad.



May be the last picture is a scene of things to come. Are we losing our greenery... Are we getting dried up ?
