He was speaking at a national seminar on 'Emerging Trends in Green Technologies' at Avanashilingam University for Women here.

Comparing nature to a bee hive, Dr Rahim that as long as one does not harm nature it remains benevolent to humankind.

"Once we touch the beehive, all the bees attack us. In the same way if we conserve and respect Mother Nature, it gives it bounty to us."
