Too much of a Forest eh? Or just an Open ground? Even The "To be retained" part was barren for a few time! @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday #CarShedWahiBanega Stop fooling people by not showing the view that shows JVLR urban area @AareySave @ConserveAarey @saveaarey

@saurabh5620 @Pushkartweetss @mulund_info @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey No entry post midnight was the rule for #AareyForest. There used to be a check naka and they would collect toll. Then Royal palms came. Then studios inside...dumping plaster, encroachments... AareyForest SGNP extends frm Goregaon to Borivli. SGNP is protectd. #AareyForest isnt

@Pushkartweetss @mulund_info @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey @saveaarey Calling Aarey as Lungs is a Joke in itself and destroys your argument there.. If Aarey is Lungs, to SGNP kya Show piece hai kya fir? And lungs the to why does it have a Regularly used Goregaon Aarey, Marol Maroshi road, Film City and Royal Palm ka role to baad me dekhege...

@saveaarey @saurabh5620 @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia 3. Regarding snakes, there is a shiv temple in Shankar galli in kandivali west where snakes keep coming out, please come over to Kvli West and help me declare it a forest.

@saveaarey @BhandariDwij @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia You should be worring about That bit by bit being eaten by Expanding film City... And other deforestation in state as well The Carshed doesn't consume your "bit forest" Why this love for environment is not seen when Flamingo/Marine area is being eaten by MTHL and Coastal road?

@saurabh5620 @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey Try कर की It is from a published research report on land use in 1998. सर्व आपलीच लोक आहेत The other one is an accessible newspaper article. Again research data. Not photoshop, that you seem to rely on.

@saveaarey @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey Poor efforts. The last part in both images, where the Red shows up, Carshed falls in the Red area. I thought u had satellite Imagery😂😂😂😂😂😂 Ye aisa map mai bhi banake bheju kya? Adhe ghante ka kaam hai Photoshop and Illustrator me 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@BhandariDwij @saurabh5620 @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia Sir, SGNP - FilmCity- AareyForest were part of one contiguous forest. In pieces, #AareyForest exists...with a document to prove it. List of Qs is impressive -surely for the gallery. For us there is only one Q. Will we ever be able to save what remains? Bit by bit it goes.

@saveaarey @saurabh5620 @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia 5. How is Aarey a contiguous forest when it has so much of varied land use such as residential complexes, film city, industrial & commercial areas, etc? 6. How can Aarey be a contiguous forest when it is cut off from the other forests by arterials, sub-arties & other city roads?

@BhandariDwij @whizkidd @saurabh5620 @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia Sir, capital I pls. Indians. Nature takes over. Pls let it. Bit by bit #AareyForest is diminishing. Encroachments - Fires... Kanjurmarg awaits your visit. It is part of the original metro plan which you must see and implement.

@saveaarey @whizkidd @saurabh5620 @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia We are making an appeal to you as fellow indians that what you are trying to save is already lost, trees are already cut, tracks already laid on a part (on the rest the trackbed's ground is being prepared). Now that it's over please let the depot get built & let's live in peace.

@BhandariDwij @saurabh5620 @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia Yes. U didn't? Taken frm the contiguous forest. Know how exch with NZ. Dairy, hostel. Why a map? Come to Aarey, inform wildlife abt delineation... See pic

@saveaarey @saurabh5620 @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia I have a few questions: 1.Did you know that Aarey is a dairy? 2.Can you tell me on a map where according to you is the carshed? 3.Why did all govts including MVA refuse to declare entire aarey land as forest? 4.Why is aarey land shown as green zone and not forest in the DP? 1/3

@whizkidd @BhandariDwij @saurabh5620 @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia We should all try & save what remains of what was once a thriving biodiverse forest in a megacity. It is one of the few remaining in the world (read up). There is no fence or side. Indians V all are. Can only make a decent appeal to your good sense and #Hope

@saveaarey @BhandariDwij @saurabh5620 @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia Contrary to what you think, many of us on the other side of the fence are not these environment-hating zombies who love seeing trees get cut. (1/2)

@whizkidd @saurabh5620 @vishalkmumbai @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @ConserveAarey @WCT_India @conserve_ind @PMOIndia @POI13 @IBIS_journal @drqayumiitk @vijaypTOI @cassynaz @zoru75 Shift car shed to Kanjurmarg. That land also is in Mumbai. Not a forest. Film city future plans you haven't read up about? I'd say google will help. Would b super to get back the lost forest land on the inside. The buffer zones on the outside...be a good read too #Truth.

@saurabh5620 @saveaarey @vishalkmumbai @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @ConserveAarey @WCT_India @conserve_ind @PMOIndia @POI13 @IBIS_journal @drqayumiitk @vijaypTOI @cassynaz @zoru75 Mai to bolu everyone (those against the carshed and the ones for it) go out on the streets and launch a campaign to reclaim Film city & Royal Palms. We get our 33 hectares for the carshed, Mumbai gets 800 acres of land back that can be used to increase the green cover. Win win!

@whizkidd @BhandariDwij @saurabh5620 @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia So #RealForest not worth saving? Or facts not worth knowing? Or google defines #Forest land in our country? Limited knowledge of our rich biodiverse history is comforting whom? Why ignore and mock factual data? #SaveAareyForest

@saveaarey @BhandariDwij @saurabh5620 @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia I say go back a few centuries, and most of South and Central Mumbai were islands. Had you guys been around back then to protest against the reclamation, Mumbai in its current form wouldn't even have existed😄

@BhandariDwij @saurabh5620 @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey And this? remote sensing maps frm 1925 to 2015 good enuf to show us the destructn of a contiguous forest #SaveAareyForest Let not politics take away the fresh air we breathe... @radhikachemical @dharamveerifs @SanctuaryAsia @MongabayIndia @WWFINDIA @ben_ifs @PMOIndia

@saurabh5620 @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey @saveaarey Really great work with this representation, now it's time to share this info on insta and twitter too #CarShedWahiBanega #sayyestometro #AareyCarShed

@vishalkmumbai @saurabh5620 @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @ConserveAarey How about this one? The one that got axed in #AareyForest for #CarShed? Native. Endemic. Indigenous. @WCT_India @conserve_ind @PMOIndia @POI13 @IBIS_journal @drqayumiitk @vijaypTOI @cassynaz @zoru75

@saurabh5620 @whizkidd @TheMetroRailGuy @sumrag @rajtoday @AareySave @ConserveAarey @saveaarey Even the trees that were there in carshed area where not native. They were "planted ". Non native trees don't support or develop natural ecosystem ( like birds nesting and other insects making the tree ntheir home). There is absolutely no damage to environment due to carshed

Few people take pictures as #Leopard crosses road in #Aarey. One more proof of Aarey is a Forest land. #SaveAarey #SaveMumbai Pic by @RajeshSanap16

A tweet to reiterate This group or the supporters of #SaveAarey are not against the Metro. But against Metro carshed that is being build in #AareyForest. Moreover bcoz there are 7 more options available. RT if you all agree

The vanishing #ForestofMumbai. Undeniable facts Land use maps frm 1925 to 2015. Real Mumbaikars know Why #AareyForest needs to be saved @paragenetics @DrPradhan2000 @ben_ifs @amrita_02 @zoru75 @PMOIndia @IUCN @inbiodiversity @ranjeetnature @vijaypTOI
