We are nothing after our death. Let us donate our body organs for the poor.

Be not afraid of anything. You will do marvelous work The moment you fear, you are nobody - Swamy Vivekananda

If you think safety is expensive, try an accident... - O.P.Kharbanda

Preventable accidents, if they are not prevented due to our negligence, it is nothing short of a murder - Dr. Sarvepalli Radha Krishna, 2nd President of India

Zero accidents through zero unsafe behaviors. Do not be complacent that there are no accidents. There may be near miss accidents (NMAs). With luck/chance, somebody escaped knowingly or unknown to the person. But, we can't be safe, if we depend upon the luck.

Safety culture is how the organization behaves when no one is watching.

We make No compromise with respect to Morality, Ethics, or Safety. If a design or work practice is perceived to be unsafe, we do not proceed until the issue is resolved. - Mission statement by S&B Engineers & Consultants Ltd. http://www.sbec.com/safety/

Urabanization - problem of domestic waste

I resumed my walking after my retirement from service two months ago. Instead of doing walking in parks, I am going around different streets, lanes, etc. It is very sad to see dumping of different types of waste generated from domestic and shops. As my walking areas are in residential colonies,  industrial waste is not seen thrown around. People are throwing out / dumping all types of wastes. Though, the municipal authorities are collecting waste from identified storage locations,  there are wastes all along the roads. Sweepers are engaged, but there is a limit to everything. Sweepers can't push heavy items like furniture thrown. There are identified locations for collection of such wastes made by authorities,  but common sense is lacking. There are private organizations who pay for wastes like electronics,  furniture,  vehicles discarded etc. I myself used this service and got paid. 
Authorities can display locations, contact numbers, website addresses which help in improving the cleanliness by collecting different wastes. It helps in improving hygiene and thus control spread of diseases.
