Daly Rule’s Approach (Based on the work by Nicholas G-R)

These define the condition of Ecological Sustainability
•Do not use renewable resources (Ex: fish, groundwater etc.) at a
  rate faster than that at which they regenerate
•Do not use nonrenewable resources (Ex: fossil fuels) at a rate
  faster than the rate at which corresponding renewable
  substitutes for them can be put into place
•
•Do not emit pollution and wastes at a rate faster than the rate at
  which natural systems can absorb / recycle / render them
  harmless.
•
These rules are thought to be most direct way of translating Bruntland Definition into operation

"We admire some people who influence our life with their special characteristics.  Admiring a person is not to follow their social media accounts and wait for their posts.  Admiring is to inherit their qualities, follow their principles and inspire with their ideology"         Thimmakka was born in Gubbi Taluk, Tumukuru District in Karnataka. She was married to Chikkaiah who was a laborer but they, unfortunately, could have no children.  She reportedly wanted to commit suicide when she was in her 40's as she was unable to bear a child.        Later on, with grit and determination, she decided to plant trees and get rid of great distress and sadness.  Ten saplings were grafted in the first year and they were planted along with a distance of 5 km near the neighboring village of Kudoor. 15 saplings were planted in the second year and 20 in the third year.
