Kamal Meattle has a vision to reshape commercial building in India using principles of green architecture and sustainable upkeep (including an air-cleaning system that involves massive banks of plants instead of massive banks of HVAC equipment). He started the Paharpur Business Centre and Software Technology Incubator Park (PBC-STIP), in New Delhi, in 1990 to provide "instant office" space to technology companies. PBC-STIP's website publishes its air quality index every day, and tracks its compliance to the 10 principles of the UN Global Compact, a corporate-citizenship initiative.
Synanthropes (from the Greek syn-, "together with" + anthro, "man") is a term applied to species of wild animals of various kinds which live near, and benefit from, an association with human and the somewhat artificial habitats that humans create around them.
It is the purpose of this blog to chronicle my personal exploration into fascinating concepts that human beings can employ to live in symbiosis with non-human animals as well as to serve as a log of interesting scraps of information that might serve others in their own exploration for a more peaceful and mutually beneficial existence with non-human life.
