🌱🌳🌞 Bright and sunny morning at our native trees nursery! 🌱🌳🌞

We had an amazing meetup yesterday, surrounded by lush greenery and the delightful calls of peacocks and peahens. 🌿🦚 Our volunteers arrived from different directions, bringing their passion for the environment and their commitment to making a positive change. 🌍❤️

Together, we accomplished so much! We added more grow bags to our nursery, giving a new life to waste plastic packets. ♻️🌱 And guess what? Our nursery now houses a variety of beautiful tree species, including jamun, mango, amaltas, sheesham, and neem. 🌳🌿

Our volunteers went above and beyond. One of them brought a precious mango sapling, symbolizing growth, abundance, and sweet rewards. 🥭🌱 Another volunteer surprised us with a peepal sapling, representing wisdom, resilience, and deep-rooted connection with nature. 🌳🌿

We're grateful for the enthusiasm and dedication shown by each volunteer. Your contribution makes a real difference in our mission to restore and protect our environment. Together, we're sowing the seeds of change for a greener future. 🌱💚

Stay tuned for more updates on our native trees nursery and upcoming events. Together, we can create a flourishing ecosystem for generations to come. 🌳🌍

2018 Monsoon Plantation - Week 04

🌳 100 AMALTAS SAPLINGS PLANTED!!! 🌳 We are pleased to share that with the help of around 50+ volunteers - including kids from the nearby areas, college students and working adults - we have hit yet another century today. 🌳 We planted 100 amaltas saplings within a matter of two hours, although there was some interruption due to rains. 🌳 We have focused only on amaltas in this park because this area is frequented by goats. Goats don't feed on amaltas. 🌳 We could have planted more saplings but we were out of the scope of pits here. Our volunteers will visit the park mid-week and try to seek the DDA's assistance in removing weeds. Post that we'll see if we can plant any more saplings here. 🌳 Our total saplings count this monsoon season has hit 500! Yes, if you've been following our page, we had planted total 370 till last week, today's 100 and there's another set of ~30 saplings reported by other set of volunteers that they planted.

Five Great Ways to Celebrate Eco-friendly Diwali

We Mean To Clean shares their ideas to celebrate Diwali in an eco-friendly yet enjoyable way! It’s that time of the year again. The biggest festivals of all. A day to be with family. A day full of auspiciousness, togetherness and love. The most royal of all, the festival of lights… yes, Diwali. We all know how our air quality goes down on this night, especially in a city like Delhi, where air quality is already poor. So, here we are to offer you some suggestions to celebrate Diwali in an eco-friendly way! We hope you’ll like these ideas. 1. Avoid Firecrackers This is a common one and it goes without saying. Firecrackers not only add to air pollution but they also cause sound pollution. High decibel sound is especially harmful for sensitive ears of infants and small children. And let’s also show some compassion to our pets and stray animals who live in our vicinity. And worse, they emit toxic fumes which are harmful for our health. Additionally, we all know the amount...

Native Tree Plantation at Ajmal Khan Park, Karol Bagh

PLANT A TREE, PLANT A LIFE! Total Volunteers = 16 Saplings Planted = 23 (amaltas, pilkhan) Bottle Caps Collected = 287 Continuing our weekly efforts in the monsoon season of 2019, we returned to the Ajmal Khan park on 10th of August. With a clear objective of planting native trees none needed any briefing on what to do. We had our own volunteers as well as some of the local residents. It was a pleasant morning that helped everyone’s high spirits. The soil was quite hard on the patch we targeted for our plantation. Thanks to the absence of rains and also the minor amounts of construction and demolition waste buried beneath. And we had to dig pits here! Well, it allowed some of the team members to display their muscular prowess. The seemingly difficult task of digging pits looked smooth with spades in the hands of a daedal bunch of people. Once we had a few pits dug, we started planting our beloved saplings. Oh! The joy of removing them from ...
