POWER & SPEED create big holes in pockets

In the past few days, ‘Singh has become the King’, the share market is now again ready to take a leap upwards and Crude oil prices are heading only southwards. All these things are very nice for the common man. Today crude is trading at about 124.24$ which is of its high of almost 150$.

Welcome development in the power sector

Tree Exchange

I was wondering, why not create an "Electronic Tree Exchange" right here on Praja. The aim of this should be simple - exchange trees between people instead of killing them outright.

For example, a mall feels having a fully grown Gulmohar tree is blocking it's access and wants to take it down.

But in another part of a city, a citizen has space for the tree in his/her plot. The mall can post details of the tree and the citizen interested could take it from the mall at the cost of the citizen or any other arrangment between the donor and taker.
