MUMBAI, Dec 2 (Internet): Bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan has called for mass awareness on environment protection by saying little drops of water make a mighty ocean.
Addressing a gathering at the screening and a photo exhibition on ''Environment Protection'' organised by Consulate General of France here recently, Khan said: "Every individual must be utmost cautious and not to waste natural resources, be it water or any other entity.
"I don''t think we are cautious about such small things. But it is necessary to take notice. It might be possible that in our lifetime nothing happens, but as the new years come, I am sure some problems will definitely be there. Although there are talks that the world will end, universe will collapse but I think it might not collapse by some external factor but we ourselves will end up destroying it, like the way we have been doing it. So I think it''s an important aspect," he said.
He said that one fantastic thing is that environmental studies have been introduced as an academic topic in schools.
