Live in harmony with nature, says Pachauri - The Times of India

"Unless we live in harmony with nature, unless we are able to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels and adopt renewable energy sources and until we change our life styles, the world will increasingly become unfit for human habitation," he said, adding that our ancestors put their emphasis on ethics and social morality and had less comforts perhaps but more fresh air and water.
Pachauri flashback
since he became IPCC chief. Pachauri himself often jokes that he "lives at 30,000 feet".
