Who doesn't recognize that lovely sound of the kabariwala shouting his presence in your local colony? Indians almost treat it as white noise and blank out the audio from their lives - so common is this sound from our everyday lives. Yet, the role of our friendly neighbourhood kabari wala is so important - he rids us of our raddi and pays us for the same, while ensuring cleaner neighbourhoods and a sustenance for himself. What more sustainable way of living could India have offered the world? We didn't need America to teach us recycling - we have ALWAYS recycled here in India! India keeps forgetting that it was the source of a lot of learning and knowledge and despite it's rather unenviable situation these days in terms of population pressure, resources management, waste disposal and the like, the fact is that we always had a system of recycling. But in typical modern fashion, we seem to be kicking everything that is traditional and cultural, opting blindly for one-size-fits-all solutions from the west which may not be apt for our environment. We need not ape the west but learn from our own roots! The US has taken recycling and waste management to heart in recent times and is an example for the world.
