Seventy percent of India's population lives in the countryside. This makes rural India a focal point for problems of national and global concern about the impact of high population and development on natural resources, lack of sanitation and its impact on health, etc.
Most of the citizens are now located in over 50,000 small villages. These villages were cut off from the rest of the world's civilization until the middle of the last century. About 50% of the village residents are tribal. This book describes methods to develop a model village including basic solar power, efficient cooking, pure water, a good school and healthcare clinic, organic farming, non-polluting vehicles like electric cars and bicycles, sanitation facilities, green buildings, and other green technologies with an emphasis on renewable energy. You'll discover approaches that they make to help to create better-living environments, cultivate growth, and progress toward harmonious self-actualization. They believe this can contribute to greater world peace and prosperity.Seventy percent of India's population lives in the countryside.
