Why Science Day?
The Indian Constitution states that:
It shall be the duty of every citizen of India to develop the scientific temper, humanism and the spirit of inquiry and reform.
To encourage young minds and to show the importance of science in everyday life public speeches, science exhibitions and live demonstrations are conducted every year.
This year the theme for the day was "Science and Technology for a sustainable future."
Here is a list of what some of our readers have done for a better tomorrow
- Reducing the use of plastic bags and plastic containers
- Using paper judiciously. Moving to online payment methods and even reading the newspaper online.
