Abstract:
Over half the population of the world today lives in urban areas, and even though in India we still have almost two thirds of our population living in villages, in the next few decades we would also have a majority of our citizens living in towns and cities. One of the realities of urban life is its remoteness with the pristine existence of all things natural. Urban children in North America when asked where milk comes from generally respond that it comes from plastic bottles or cardboard cartons. They have no knowledge that cows provide us with milk that we drink.
