ALS not well
The ice-bucket challenge must stop. If we could count the number of people who have accepted the challenge of pouring a bucket of ice-cold water over their heads to spread awareness about Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) a motor-neuron disease, and calculate the amount of water wasted, we’re sure the quantity could help a handful of drought-stricken villages. No doubt this social media campaign, which started in the US and has now spread to Mumbai, has raised stupendous awareness. But we are not unaware of the water-shortage situation either. Hope Mumbaikars save every bucket and stop this criminal waste of water, and continue to donate money instead.

Actor Sonakshi Sinha took the ice bucket challenge with an environmental-friendly approach by ‘pouring’ an empty bucket on her head. It is the donation that matters, she said
