Once in a while you come across an extraordinary human being, who takes it upon himself to go above and beyond to protect what others so freely take for granted; Mother Earth.

The drive and passion Jayantha has for what he believes in, can only be described as […]

Like any disease, early identification and control is key to treating them, although being mindful and preventing them is a more favourable outcome.
