EARLY TIMES REPORT
SRINAGAR, APRIL 24: “It was a rare moment for the students of High School Dani Sayedan, a remote village in Kashmir Valley when Centre for Environment Education (CEE Himalaya), a national organization, offered them to become “Paryavaran Mitra” while celebrating World Earth Day in their institution.
The World’s largest environment project “Parayavaran Mitra” is a climate change education programme aimed at creating young friends of environment who are committed to undertake green actions themselves and motivate the community for conservation of environmentally degrading areas. It will involve students of 6-9 standards from 2 million schools in India to be part of green action movement.
Urging upon the participants to realistically make every day an Earth Day, the CEE functionary said that this Day inspires and mobilizes us to demonstrate our commitment to environment protection and sustainability. He said that we should struggle to keep a balance between our energy needs and environment concerns.
Over 5,000 schools from Jammu & Kashmir are participating in this programme of Union Ministry of Environment and Forests which is supported by Arcelor Mittal and is being implemented by Centre for Environment Education (CEE).
About 250 students along with their teachers joined this international celebration and evinced keen interest in the event. The participants were informed about the Earth Day network and the activities during past 40 years.
