From the editor
Nine months ago, the executive committee members of the Small Earth-Nepal (SEN) decided in publishing a quaterly magazine with the objective to disseminate information on sustainable lifestyles (including the concept of Global Footprint) to the general public. However, the progress on the magazine from the decision to the publication was made successful due to active involvement of B.Sc.III year students from Tribhuwan University. With added enthusiasm and valuable inputs from the students the scope of the magazine has been extended to encompass all the aspects of environment and meteorology. The magazine has been named “Green View” by the students which is indeed a very suitable name reflecting its contents. I am sure that you would find Green View knowledgeable, informative and enjoyable. I would like to welcome you to your first issue of the Green View! The Green View team would like to acknowledge all who contributed their valuable articles/materials and supports for the special issue of the Green View. I would also like to thank Mr. Denesh Amatya and Mr. Bikram Shakya for their added enthusiasm and support for the Green View. Future articles in the Green View will include insights to the developments in Ecological Footprint Analysis and more details on Global Footprints and Sustainable Lifestyles. Similarly, we would be updating on the different degrees available in the field of Environment, Science, Engineering and Technology (undergraduate/postgraduate) within Nepal and neighboring areas. Finally I would like to request your feedback on our first issue so that we would be able to present you a better magazine to meet your requirements and expectations. All feedbacks are welcome regarding all aspects of the magazine (contents, formats, articles etc.). Enjoy your reading!
