Our society is becoming aware of weaker sections of society, and the environment.
Our most recent big concerns are inclusion and global warming, both at international levels.
In this context, we may need to add two more 'ways' to the Rotary list, i.e.
# 5. Does it avoid hurting the weak, underprivileged, or defenceless?
# 6. Does it avoid polluting the environment, and avoid using its natural resources?
Best wishes.

Dear friends,
I am attaching the time-tested "Rotary's Four Way Test" which is being followed successfully by Rotarians all over the World.
This is very useful in decision-making even in complex situations. This simple method may be tried by Managers to take good
decisions. More info on "Rotary's 4 way test" is available on <rotary.org>
