One of the golden rules of code of ethics is, "Do not preach what you do not follow".
The Brahma Kumaris jump on every opportunity to defend the environment and strongly call for its protection and sustainability, and even participate and sponsor enviromental issues seminars. This is not because they care about environment (to them the world is coming to an immediate end anyway), but because this is the international trend now and whoever speaks of environment protection will be viewed with high respect and appreciation.
In Brahma Kumaris Mount Abu H.Q., they do have an S.T.P. (Sewage Treatment Plant), wrongly located in the middlle of the large residential area, yet they do not operate it due to cost. Instead they dump the complex huge sewage effluent on the nearby fields, thus creating major enviromental and underground water pollution for the neighbouring villages.
To be fair, they did operate the S.T.P. some years back when drought hit Rajasthan region and they needed the treated water to irrigate the complex landscape.
It is worthwhile repeating again: Do not preach what you do not follow ... !!
