In a mission to save ourself, we embark on a bicycle ride across India – to seek answers and respect - for ourself and everything and everyone around us.
The economic, development, security , ideology and climate crisis we face today have same roots - and there is a simple solution in stopping fossil fuel use- which will renew our economy, provide opportunities and avert the climate crisis. But making the switch to renewable's is only the end result – before that we have to undergo a complete transformation in our thoughts and actions - to truly save ourself.

Once Upon a Time
Pruthvi chances upon Cola and picks up an allergy – his addiction gets so bad that he slips into Emergency. Now he has two simple choices -
1) Pruthvi Quits cola and starts recovering, goes back to play with his friends - Pawan and Surya – "And they live happily ever after."
OR
2) Pruthvi Does not kick his deadly habit and allows the allergy to get the better of him – "Well, not every "Once upon a time" story has to have a happy ending."
Watch Pruthvi's (Life on Earth) story – read about his allergy and the solutions with alternatives- and help us finish the story at www.whynewcoal.com <http://www.whynewcoal.com>

Dr James Hansen , Director NASA GISS - "If we phase out use of coal except where we capture the CO2 and sequestrate it, that would be 80% of the solution. Once the governments realize, how serious the problem is, these plants will have to go, so it makes no sense to make another one now. "
Al Gore, Nobel Peace Laureate - "I Cant understand why there aren't rings of young people blocking bulldozers and preventing them from constructing coal-fired power plants."
