Nature reflects our nature
Message from the editorial board
We are delighted to present our readers the first edition of “PRATIBIMBA”: Nature
Reflects our Nature, the annual magazine of Environmental Science students at Kath-
mandu University. This magazine is a platform where not only the teachers, faculty
members and students can express their ideas and views, but also anybody who feels
connected with nature and the environment.
“Pratibimba” simply means ‘Reflection’. The name of this magazine was chosen so
to send out the message that nature, our home, is highly influenced by us inhabitants
and also our ‘human nature’ itself. Nature reflects back what we do to it, be it sincere
care, or a despicable act of degradation.
The magazine aspires to boost up environment issues through articles, artwork, pho-
tographs and so on. We hope to inspire and motivate people of all ages and disci-
plines into contributing their little but into increasing concerns about the environment.
Through written words, we have done our best to reflect nature from the eyes of peo-
ple. We hope to have created a platform that will help everyone channel their voice
and to help the readers get inspired to contribute to a better and cleaner future.
The realization of this magazine has been made possible due to dedication of its hard-
working team and more importantly the creative writers, photographers and artists.
We take this opportunity to sincerely thank all the people who have generously con-
tributed to the successful publication of this magazine and have motivated us through-
out the process. We hope to give “PRATIBIMBA” continuation in the years to come
and continue an effort to raise the much needed concerns about the environment.
Happy reading!
