Or simply take a look at your daily deodorants and perfumes. Or even your clothes. Some of them may be branded as ‘Cruelty Free’ or ‘Vegan’, some may be leather, fake or genuine. My point is, how much do we actually know of the items we use regularly in terms of how they’re sourced, and what their impact is on the larger ecosystem. As we move forward, we as a society have become very conscious and aware of what we put inside our mouths. Water Purifiers have double even triple filters. We boil our fruits to get rid of the manufactured waxy layer. You will always find health freaks reading the ingredient lists of every food or beverage before they purchase or consume it. But why are we so unaware and unbothered with our other daily essentials? This article will enunciate the various unethical animal sourcing of many well-known products we use and its impact on society and our health. It will majorly focus on the legal measures taken to prevent this and protect not only animals but also us as consumers. Although most companies are party to grotesque crimes like Child labour that are kept under wraps from the general public, to whom the sleek shiny marketing strategies are shown, this article will mostly focus on animal cruelty and the relating laws in place. At the end, this article will also suggest new reforms and policies that can better protect all creatures of the earth. HOW DOES ANIMAL CRUELTY TAKE PLACE IN MAINSTREAM COSMETICS? Animal cruelty in products takes place in two ways: Testing1: Several invasive experiments on rabbits, mice, guinea pigs, and rats are carried out despite the fact that they are not allowed by law. Skin and eye discomfort experiments, in which chemicals are rubbed onto shaved skin or dripped into the eyes of restrained rabbits without providing pain relief, are examples. 1 Humane Society of the US- Cosmetic Testing FAQ 8 PIF – A++ ISSN 2581-6349 Experiments in which mice are force-fed chemical doses over and over again. Researchers use these tests to check for symptoms of general illness or serious health risks like cancer or birth defects. They can last weeks or months. "Lethal dose" experiments, in which rats are required to drink vast quantities of chemicals in order to assess the dose that causes death, have been widely criticized. The animals are usually killed by asphyxiation, neck-breaking, or decapitation at the end of certain experiments. There is no provision for pain relief. A significant percentage of the animals used in such testing (such as laboratory-bred rats and mice) are not counted in official statistics and are not protected under the Animal Welfare Act in the United States. Thousands of products are now on the market that are made from ingredients that have a long history of being healthy and do not need further testing. Companies can ensure food protection by using certain ingredients in their products. Companies may also use non-animal tests that are already available or invest in and create non-animal tests for new ingredients. There are nearly 50 non-animal experiments available now, with several more in the works. These modern alternatives will more closely replicate how humans respond to cosmetic ingredients and products than animal experiments, and they are also more reliable and cost-effective. Actively using animals/insects in production2: If you take a look a look at any makeup or skincare product you are most likely to find Carmine in it. Cochineal is a natural pigment extracted from the dried female insect Coccus cacti. Carmine is the aluminum lake of cochineal (cochineal). It's used in cosmetics and personal care items, among other things. Carmine is a food coloring that can be used in a variety of products such as juice, yogurt, and sweets. Her exoskeleton is crushed to produce a bright crimson red dye extract known as Carmine. Carmine was first used as a red dye by the Aztecs. Carmine is now used in a wide range of products, including strawberry milk, colored beverages, perfume, and vitamins, in addition to cosmetics. Carmine is often used to add color vibrancy, long-wear, and shade strength to a variety of products. Why will any cosmetics company use Carmine in their products? The short answer is that makeup companies use this ingredient because they believe it is the only way to achieve the brilliant cool pinks and reds that their consumers demand while remaining true to their natural makeup statements.

  • In the Name of Krishna: the Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town
    In the Name of Krishna: The Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sugata Ray IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Frederick M. Asher, Advisor April 2012 © Sugata Ray 2012 Acknowledgements They say writing a dissertation is a lonely and arduous task. But, I am fortunate to have found friends, colleagues, and mentors who have inspired me to make this laborious task far from arduous. It was Frederick M. Asher, my advisor, who inspired me to turn to places where art historians do not usually venture. The temple city of Khajuraho is not just the exquisite 11th-century temples at the site. Rather, the 11th-century temples are part of a larger visuality that extends to contemporary civic monuments in the city center, Rick suggested in the first class that I took with him. I learnt to move across time and space. To understand modern Vrindavan, one would have to look at its Mughal past; to understand temple architecture, one would have to look for rebellions in the colonial archive. Catherine B. Asher gave me the gift of the Mughal world – a world that I only barely knew before I met her. Today, I speak of the Islamicate world of colonial Vrindavan. Cathy walked me through Mughal mosques, tombs, and gardens on many cold wintry days in Minneapolis and on a hot summer day in Sasaram, Bihar. The Islamicate Krishna in my dissertation thus came into being.

  • Social Movements & Saving Rivers: What Can Be Learned from the Narmada?
    Social movements & saving rivers: What can be learned from the Narmada? Harry Blair ([email protected]) Yale-TERI Workshop on the Yamuna River: A Confluence of Waters, a Crisis of Need 3 January 2011 Like the Yamuna, the Narmada has long been esteemed as one of India’s five most sacred rivers. And like the Yamuna, the Narmada has long been regarded by many as a place of unacceptable degradation of the environment and threat to the local human population. But while the Narmada has been the focus of a decades-long social movement protesting outside intrusions, the Yamuna thus far has not. Are there some worthwhile lessons from the Narmada experience that could inform future activity to redeem the Yamuna? This paper and conference presentation argue that a number of valuable lessons can be distilled from the Narmada saga. The principal theme of these lessons is civil society advocacy. “Civil society” can be defined as organized activity not part of the state, the private sector or the family, in which people act to promote mutual interests. “Advocacy” in turn can be defined as the process through which individuals or organizations endeavor to influence public policy making and implementation. Thus “civil society advocacy” would mean efforts on the part of civil society organizations (CSOs) to influence state behavior. Since the late 1940s, a series of plans has aimed to harness the Narmada River through dams to provide hydropower and irrigation. The centerpiece of the whole enterprise has been the last dam before the river empties into the Arabian Sea, the huge structure at Sardar Sarovar.

  • Sardar Sarovar Dam Project
    Insights Mind maps General Studies-2; Government policies and interventions for development in various sectors and issues arising out of their design and implementation Sardar Sarovar Dam Project 1) Introduction Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated Sardar Sarovar Dam on the Narmada River. A multi-purpose project with irrigation, power and drinking water benefits, it is meant to benefit Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Gujarat. It would become a symbol of the country’s growing prowess and boost growth in the region. 2) Background The Sardar Sarovar project was a vision of the first deputy prime minister of India, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. The foundation stone of the project was laid out by Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru on April 5, 1961 The project took form in 1979 as part of a development scheme to increase irrigation and produce hydroelectricity. In 1996, the Supreme Court stayed the project, further delaying the work on the dam. After the Supreme Court gave an order in October 2000 in favour of construction of the dam, the work resumed. 3) Benefits It will provide drinking water to 4 crore people and help irrigate 2.2 million hectares of land. The irrigation benefits will help in doubling the farmers income by 2022. The Narmada canal will also irrigate lands in the desert districts of Barmer and Jalore of Rajasthan. Project has successfully brought water to the dry Kutch district, where the armed forces are guarding the nation. Drop-out ratio of girls from schools reduced after Narmada waters started reaching homes of the people. Providing drinking water to animals and livestock Provide domestic and industrial water, generate employment, and provide valuable peak electric power.

  • Engineers in India: Industrialisation, Indianisation and the State, 1900-47
    Engineers in India: Industrialisation, Indianisation and the State, 1900-47 A P A R A J I T H R AMNATH July 2012 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Imperial College London Centre for the History of Science, Technology and Medicine DECLARATION This thesis represents my own work. Where the work of others is mentioned, it is duly referenced and acknowledged as such. APARAJITH RAMNATH Chennai, India 30 July 2012 2 ABSTRACT This thesis offers a collective portrait of an important group of scientific and technical practitioners in India from 1900 to 1947: professional engineers. It focuses on engineers working in three key sectors: public works, railways and private industry. Based on a range of little-used sources, it charts the evolution of the profession in terms of the composition, training, employment patterns and work culture of its members. The thesis argues that changes in the profession were both caused by and contributed to two important, contested transformations in interwar Indian society: the growth of large-scale private industry (industrialisation), and the increasing proportion of ‘native’ Indians in government services and private firms (Indianisation). Engineers in the public works and railways played a crucial role as officers of the colonial state, as revealed by debates on Indianisation in these sectors. Engineers also enabled the emergence of large industrial enterprises, which in turn impacted the profession. Previously dominated by expatriate government engineers, the profession expanded, was considerably Indianised, and diversified to include industrial experts. Whereas the profession was initially oriented towards the imperial metropolis, a nascent Indian identity emerged in the interwar period.

  • Spain Diversity Climate Notes
    Spain Diversity Climate Notes *** WELCOME TO SPAIN The Diversity Network’s Country Diversity Notes provide readily accessible summaries of country- specific information on potential challenges for students who are from backgrounds traditionally underrepresented in study abroad programs. The notes were created to facilitate the ability of study abroad professionals to find a good country fit for prospective study abroad students who are uncertain of how they will be received abroad because of their race, ethnicity, sexuality, gender, religion or disability. The Spain diversity note, below, features a country overview as well as information pertinent to the climate of respect that U.S. students of diverse backgrounds can reasonably expect while living in the country. It also offers bulleted information noting facts that may directly relate to student experiences in the country. Links for students to pursue additional information resources on the various topics are also offered. While the note provides a bird’s-eye view of diversity matters in the country as they pertain to U.S. students, the country information found in the note is not exhaustive. Advisors should use the information contained below in collaboration with faculty and staff who have experience in the particular country, returned study abroad students who are able and feel comfortable to discuss their own observations of diversity in the country, and the advisor’s own knowledge. COUNTRY OVERVIEW Spain is the third most popular destination for U.S. study abroad students. Engulfing its Iberian neighbor Portugal, Spain has coasts along the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, with the Strait of Gibraltar to the south separating it from Morocco.

  • INDIAN INSTANCES of REGULATION of FREESPEECH 2011 1. Political Cartoonist's Website Blocked, Followed by His
    INDIAN INSTANCES OF REGULATION OF FREE-SPEECH 2011 1. Political Cartoonist©s website blocked, followed by his arrest nine months later. Month: 27 December 2011 Website: www.cartoonsagainstcorruption.com Reason: Complaint by private entity ± objectionable pictures and texts related to the flag and emblem of India. The website at www.cartoonsagainstcorruption.com was a cartoon based campaign started by a 25 year old political cartoonist, Aseem Trivedi, to support the nation-wide anti-corruption movement in India started by Anna Hazare in 20111. Having published his cartoons in several newspapers, Trivedi, who hails from Kanpur, had launched the website in October 2011 to reach a wider audience. In December 2011 Trivedi©s banners had received a lot of media attention at the time of Anna Hazare©s three-day fast at Mumbai. Consequently, on the second day of the campaign, Trivedi©s website, which features anti-corruption cartoons, had become inaccessible and upon inquiry from the web-site©s host (Big Rock) it was revealed to him that the portal had been suspended following a complaint from the Mumbai Police. The complaint that resulted in suspension of the website was made by a Mumbai- based lawyer, R.P. Pandey2, who alleged that several of the cartoons violated provisions of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 and the State Emblem of India (Prohibition of Improper Use) Act 2005.3 The Aftermath & ©Save Your Voice© Campaign 4: Following his web-site©s ban, Trivedi initiated a blog on Blogger, a Google-based service, where he continued to voice his opinions5. Thereafter a movement against censorship in India called the ©Save Your Voice© campaign was initiated by Trivedi along with journalist Alok Dixit.
