Can Gandhi s simple life help reduce our carbon imprint? Does a young and impatient population have anything to learn from the Mahatma non-violent resistance? Yes, says activist-author Bharat Dogra, answering the question, is Gandhi s message relevant for 21st century India? In view of the enormity of the ecological crisis, it is important today to speak of an environment space within which economic and industrial activity should be contained if it is not to become destructive. For example, GM crops and making wine from tea should be no part of India s economy. War-preparations are themselves a huge source of greenhouse gas (ghg) emissions. This book recalls that Badshah Khan s Khudai Khidmatgars were from Taliban land. It imagines how peaceful resistance would have been like in Baghdad (from 2003 to 2011). It revisits Vietnam. It calls for an end to use of robot and AI weapons. Can we put our minds to creating a world without war and consumerism? Man over machine! An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind, said the Mahatma.
