How do we help save the rocks?
Thank you for thinking about it. I have a few ideas, though the better idea will come from YOU.
Fencing the area: This requires talking to different sponsors(may be Google) who might contribute money for fencing the preserved rock sites.
-Map it all: The maps to these preserved sites are currently hand drawn by Ms Frauke Quader, and can be more useful if they are on Google maps. I picked them from the web site, and tried to map them here. You can take more sites from the page, and add them. (Better still, we can plan an excursion to those sites, and then we can mark them on the map)
- Spread awareness. Link to this post, post your blog links about the rocks, hang out with friends and look for other mediums to spread the awareness(eg media)
Pictures: If you know how to click a photograph, you can help. Click good photos for these rocks and then we can put them at saverocks.org
Board: Usually even the construction guys don't know that they will be sued for what they are destroying. A great way is to put a board that says so. Let me know if you are interested in having some activity planned where we can paint such boards, and go and put them at the rock site.
I like the point of spreading awareness the most. Also, another thing can be practice what you preach. The next time you see someone littering stop him
ReplyDeleteWhy not preserve the rocks at a less popular place than Hyderabad, making a heritage site there? This gets them tourism money, protects and creates awareness about the rocks and allows Hyderabad to prosper.
