Tree Plantation Program on IDP 2023
Observing the pressing environmental issues and deforestation concerns in our community, we were inspired to initiate the tree planting project. We believed that by fostering a green environment, we could contribute to combating climate change and enhancing biodiversity. The urge to create a sustainable future and raise awareness motivated us to take action.
on the occasion of International day of Peace 2023 Scouts, Guides, Rovers, Rangers and adult Leaders of Bharat Scouts and Guides, Howrah District Association are planted around 300 Fruit trees on the local area of the respective groups at Howrah. from 15th Sept to 22nd Sept 23 and approx. 150 scouts, Guides, rovers, Rangers and adult leaders are participated in the Service program.
The measurable impacts of the tree planting project include a significant increase in the number of trees in our local area, resulting in improved greenery and air quality. The project raises environmental awareness among students and teachers, promoting sustainable practices. Furthermore, it contributes to climate change mitigation by sequestering carbon dioxide and reducing the carbon footprint.
From the project, we learned the importance of collective efforts in addressing environmental challenges. Working with teachers and fellow Scouts taught us effective coordination and teamwork. We gained valuable insights into tree planting techniques and environmental conservation. Witnessing the positive impact of our actions fueled our commitment to fostering a greener and sustainable future.
