Here’s proof for why bad ecology leads to bad economy. A recent report has revealed that 7 of the top 10, and 43 out of the 100 cities most exposed to environmental risks are in India. This isn’t news though. We’ve heard it year after year, and frankly, it seems like nobody -really- cares. It’s okay a couple million die each year because of polluted air, at least we’re getting that 5 trillion economy right? Well, maybe not. Because this report isn’t by a human rights organization, it’s a research firm analysing business risk, and they recommend that global companies should invest in low risk cities across the world. If this anti-national report is to be trusted, india’s is going to have to become a lot more aatmanirbhar a lot faster.
