Rally on October 2, 2009
TidyCity is planning a small rally on October 2nd, from Secretariat, Statue to Manaveeyam Veedhi. Like we did on 15th August, the rally will be organised so as not to disturb the public in any way. We carry placards, walk in one line and there shall be no slogan-shouting.
The rally will be concluded at Manaveeyam Veedhi, with performaces by the Abhinaya group.
Those who would like to participate in the rally, please send an email to mail@tidycity.org ASAP.
Further details of the rally will be posted soon, after all arrangements are complete.The NeverEnding Story movie Gumball 3000: The Movie ipod

Sep 19: International Coastal Clean Up
– Cris
TidyCity tied up with WWF to do a clean up of Shanghumugham beach today.
On the occasion of International Coastal Clean Up Day, members of TidyCity clubbed with WWF in their event of a clean-up drive. This was followed by a segregation exercise and finally the count of the different objects collected was noted.
Starting a little after 7 am, the team was divided into a single line to cover a stretch of around 100 metres in an hour’s time. Instructions were given to collect every little thing from a tiny piece of paper, to cigarette snubs to huge plastic sheets. The items mostly picked were plastic spoons, icecream sticks and covers, plastic covers, cigarette snubs, plastic covers and wrappers, thermocol, and even clothe.
After segregration the WWF team noted the numbers so it can be used to survey what contributes to the garbage at beaches. TidyCity would also be giving out the numbers soon.
Apart from the exercise, we saw jelly fish remains, fishermen pulling nets, and ticket collectors. Srijith was affectionately called ‘njanjool’ (small worm) by one of them, which TidyCity decided to accept as his TidyCity name.
Sivakumar Sir from WWF treated us to coffee and snacks at the Indian Coffee House afterwards.
TC members who attended: Srijith, Manu, Rasika, Bindu, Ashith, Aneesh, Anil, Joji, Swapin, Cris

Letter to the Corporation of Trivandrum
TidyCity has made a formal request for installation of waste disposal facilities in public places within Trivandrum city. This request has been submitted to the Secretary of the Corporation on the 19th of August (Ref# 43556).
Here’s a transcript of the request:-
Sir,
Tidycity is a voluntary association formed with the objective of promoting the idea of a clean surrounding around us. Our aim is to spread awareness and drive actions that will help keep our cities clean.
From surveys and interactions we have had with the public in Thiruvananthapuram, we have discovered that there is a perceived shortage of waste disposal points in the city, particularly in public spaces. We request that you take the necessary action to install waste disposal facilities at all public places in Trivandrum city where such a shortage exists.
To list a few places:
• Shanghumukham beach
• Veli Lake Resort
• Museum premises
• Zoo premises
• Aakkulam Resort
In places where plastics are not banned, we recommend that there be separate bins provided for non-biodegradable waste and bio-degradable waste.
We have also come across a general lack of awareness among the public regarding the necessity for segregating waste, and in general, about city waste management and the problems faced by the system thereof. To address this, we recommend that information boards be placed adjacent to the waste disposal facilities – these boards should provide general information (in Malayalam and English) on city waste management with the aim of educating the public.
An indicative list of information items that could be covered is given below:
• How city waste is processed
• Dos and Don’ts for citizens
• Details of a complaint/suggestion system.
TidyCity would be delighted to provide any assistance in the design of the waste bins and the information boards.
We request you to provide a written response to this request, with a time bound plan as to when the necessary action can be taken OR, if action cannot be taken, the reasons for the same. We intend to publish a copy of this letter and your response to this on our website (http://tidycity.org/).Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines film
An Onam message for all of us :-)
By Bindu Philip
On August 30th on our museum discussions, we met Soorya Krishnamurthy, who told that Onam should be celebrated only by those who love their land – those who love kerala and not by anyone whose dreams ends in the four walls of their houses, place of work etc. And I support him because those who don’t love Kerala and her trees, plants, rivers, seas and forests must not even think about Onam because Onam is the celebration of nature when all the trees, plants and animals including humans are in harmony with the nature, when millions of flowers bloom together and millions of butterflies and birds sing together to celebrate.
But today 99 percent of the Keralites forget everything about Kerala and makes Onam just a time for purchase 
So what right is there for those who make our Kerala unclean and who destroy her beautiful rivers, lakes, ponds, sand and forests to celebrate Onam?
Let us keep our Kerala clean and love her and then celebrate Onam
