What’s in your walls: plastic, paper, carbon?
For the longest time, summer vacations meant weeks at the maternal grandparents’ 100-year-old colonial bungalow in Ahmednagar. Abbott Bungalow has survived three generations — perhaps because it was built prioritising features like natural cooling, solar orientation and sustainable materials such as stone floors and walls made with chuna (lime), husk and mud. The very factors that are lacking in most ‘modern’ structures. This is one of the reasons why sustainability in design is now being recognised and rewarded. At the recently-concluded ArchDaily Building of the Year 2021 competition, for instance, natural materials were in the spotlight. Bamboo hostels in China, a circular glass Apple Store (with 1,461 white oak slats forming a central canopy) in Thailand, among others, were adjudged winners.

The split is sowing
MAHA IMPACT OF NEW FARM LAWS : Small farmers are worried about security of payments and right prices while horticulture producers are happy with the open market trade . Though there has been little participation of farmers from Maharashtra in the ongoing protests in Delhi against the contentious new farm laws, farmers from the state, especially those growing onion, cotton, soyabean, rice or pulses are worried about the future of contract farming and the fate of Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) that gives them an assurance of timely payment. Horticulture producers, however, support the contract farming and open market trade (producers to customer/purchaser without APMCs), a mechanism that is already in place in the state. One reason why farmers of Nashik favour this system is the success of Sahyadri Farms, a farmer producer company in Nashik, which was started around 10 years ago and has become the largest exporter of grapes in the country. The company now has ... » Learn More about The split is sowing

COVID-19 vaccine price between Rs 300-500, proposes NITI Aayog
New Delhi: The NITI Aayog has promulgated a price range of Rs 300-500 for two Covid vaccines that would be available for the priority group at private facilities in the third phase of vaccination set to begin from March 1, sources privy to the development revealed, adding that the Bharat Biotech’s Covaxin would cost a bit higher. However, the union health ministry would take a final call on the proposition. The proposed price has been floated after a five-hour long meeting held between the Dr VK Paul, member (health), NITI Aayog and officials from Serum Institute of India and Bharat Biotech on Friday evening, which was concluded around 11 pm., sources added. "This would be the price the end-user would pay for a dose. It includes the service charge the private facilities can take from the beneficiaries," a top official said.
