    These kind of awareness draws inspiration n attention of the community.
    3R is the basic principle every one has to be adopted. We ladakhis feel proud in aping the foreign culture n lifestyles which ruin n shatter the structure and organic existence of the people which eventually overshoot the carrying capacity of the nature.
    Therefore it is utmost need to follow the zero waste philosophy, sustainability,eco friendly and mindful living.

Should be implemented through all over India. If each of us start practicing this, the face of OUR WHOLE COUNTRY would change. People of Ladakh have this awareness but this awareness has to be brought in mind of each and every Indian. Jai Hind.
