Act For A Green World

Top post on IndiBlogger, the biggest community of Indian Bloggers

What does our world need today? Something that's applicable for the four corners of the world?
When you ask yourself this question, what answers come to your mind?

I feel our world needs more greenery and environment-friendly actions.
Imagine what a world it will be if all of us plant saplings and nurture trees...
I say- "Yes We Can Plant Trees".
Planting trees gives immense satisfaction and happiness to me.

I have tried to involve the community in my tree plantation endeavours.
Last year, I organized a plantation drive at a nearby field.
VanaMahotsav at our locality in Bhubaneswar was much appreciated.

Just plantation of seeds or saplings is not enough. They need to be watered, cared and respected. 
To take better care, I planted some seeds and saplings in the lanes near my house. Any suitable free space (like the space between the walls of our home and our neighbour's as shown in the images above and below) is fine for plantation.
How many saplings can you spot? Can you recognize the plant species in the following image?

I am so proud to share that many of the seeds have germinated and the plants are growing really well. I am excited to see them grow. In a couple of years, they will soon start giving mango & bel fruits!

I have adopted some areas and ensure regular weeding and cleaning there.
Clearing litter like polythene bags, wrappers etc. is a challenge. It pains me to find people disregarding the environment.
We need to adopt eco-friendly and green ways throughout the world. This is our planet.
Everyone's good intentions, involvement and actions are needed for a green world.

Don't we need a green world? How are you contributing to the environment? Have you ever planted a tree?

  1. Yes. Very true. Trees are indeed very important to us as greenery is very essential to maintain the balance in the environment. Rampart deforestation and uprooting of trees and their replacement with concrete jungle causes infinite damage. Good post with a cause. Good for you that you are doing something about this problem.

  2. You have taken a very good initiative and its really tough to motivate people in large scale to have their contribution with you.

  3. Vana mahotsavs should not be one day rituals but should not only encompass the tending of plants planted with water and protection from being eaten up but also be a continuous endeavour in every village and city.Heartening to see your tiny contribution towards this cause that should inspire others to follow suit..

  6. Hats off to you for your efforts. My friend has this policy of carrying packets of seeds whenever he goes on roadtrips and disperses them on the roadside when he takes a break. I'm planning to follow his lead as well. These little things we do will end up making a big difference.

  7. We are actually not realizing the impact of cutting trees. That's such a great initiative Anita, when most of us just play the blame game, you actually took the initiative and have inspired so many others. Thanks for the sharing.
