Don't waste India and her lands. Remove Dams and do assisted reverdure. You save hundred times the land used by forests to store the same amount of water as the Polavaram project.

Godavari river rises near Nasik in Maharashtra at an elevation of about 1067 m and flows for a length of about 1465 km before outfalling in to the Bay of Bengal.


Polavaram reservoir
Catchment area  307800km^2
174 km radius.
Forest 3078 km^2.
31.3 km radius.
5.56


Imagine a world where dams have all been removed and adequately covered under truly locally ecologically diverse forests analogous to the original. In such a normal civilization, ground waters are charged by the same quantity of water by forests on hundred fold less area than the Polavaram Catchment area. Thus a great amount of diverse ecology is prevented from destruction while achieving the same goals. When one builds on such despecialised vision it will be a zero cost economy with nature as the bottomline with production, consumption and RETURN as the way of living as advocated by the Gita, a timeless authorless treatise on living.
