As the sun sets on World Environment Day 2009, it’s surely going to smile a little more. For, it’s on this day that the centre of the solar system has been in the spotlight. It’s next chance would surely be during some solar eclipse, but will never be as popular for another 365 days of it’s life. And our lives too.
True, the sun may not have been among the top trending topics on Twitter, but then, in the offline world, it sure has been a hit. And why not. The sun, for one day is the panacea for all the environmental ills that afflict our civilization. Clean, green energy. And what not. But then, that’s all for just one day. Not 24 hours. But about 12 to 18 hours. And then, as it sets, all the green activists bid the sun a goodbye. Surely, the big daddy of universe deserves a better deal- being thought of as a source of clean energy through the year. Till then, dear Sun, sad to say, but it just won't be your day.
