before you go to any other thoughts, let me stress on that fact that, this is just about "Climate" in Bangalore.
Though its just the starting of summer, the mercury in bangalore has already reached heights, which it has never reached in recent past, atleast for last 4 years.

what caused this change in the ever cool bangalore?
cutting down trees for wide road?
or ever increasing vehicles?
or overcrowded high-rise building (i just have a suggestion here, cant we add a prefix to bangalore's name, as 'concrete-garden city'?) ?
or may be global warming?

what ever it is, what difference it makes to me? just few changes which i see here n there..

more ads for Air conditioners on the hoardings, where there were big mobile player names...
more discount banners for Air coolers in super markets and showrooms...
more ad sms for refridgerators on mobile...
these things, which were never there in bangalore previously.

people are hesitating to go out, not because of cold, now because of heat (atleast i'm). the volvo AC buses are crowded, not just with so called 'software people', every person prefers them, rather than much cheaper ordinary buses. this happens even in early morning, which explains lot many things.

Though i always wanted the economic 'recession' time to end, i'm now wondering when will the temperature 'recession' time will start...

    still i can see few trees here n there in 100ft road... but, no trees in intermediate ring road, and also, in those areas where so-called 'namma metro" is supposed to come...

    but, still, no decrease in traffic, and also no decrease in temperature... :(

  5. nice article, buddy.. instead of prefixing "Concrete" before Garden, why not remove the word "Garden" itself. Then it will be "Concrete City" which it actually is turning into.
