In Kerala, when the laborers were working on a construction site, a tree stood in their way. Instead of cutting it down they dug a hole around the tree and pushed it aside with roots intact as you can see in the picture.
And they call them “UNEDUCATED”! We “educated” ones should learn a lesson from them as how to respect and conserve trees and mother nature.
This seems to be a normal practice in Kerala – what an inspirational act of sensibility this is…
