On the 7th Anniversary of SMRITIVAN, WARJE and 71st Birthday of Former Environment, Forest and Climate Change Minister Shri. Prakash Javdekar, TERRE Policy Centre organized plantation programme by planting 71 trees. Birthday symbolizes new life, giving this message he urged people to plant a tree and nurture it to set the new way of celebrating birthdays.
Here is the month of June and the onset of the rain god.
The trees and plants will bloom with rain showers.
However, we see depletion of groundwater storage. The heavy development around us like the cement roads, tiles and construction activities does not help water to percolate in the ground.
We desperately need to plan the storage of water in the ground with help of tanks and seepage.
This will increase the level of groundwater reserves. The rivers, wells and small water reservoirs will have adequate supply.
Harvest water! Conserve life on Earth!
Being as a Project Partner TERRE Policy Centre team was invited at Nagenahiru Centre for Environment Education at Godahena, Ambalangoda, Sri Lanka for Regional Forum form 4th Feb to 9th Feb 2024.
