Youth for Environment(1 to 3 June 2014)


In the occasion of world environment day 2014. I organize an Youth based door to door campaign with the support of my siblings and friends. Campaign  main theme was – Mountain Areas: Problems,Opportunity,Challenges and Recommendation .  Through this campaign I personally interact with my 27 friends and at the same time I also observed  my friends lifestyle and their opinion about various environmental issue in Uttarakhand State. We also discussed on Youth involvement in environment.  Indeed it was a great time.  We discussed a lot about mountain areas problems and their solutions as well. We also developed a youth declaration based on our inputs and discussions and handover this to state authorities to raise our voice. After the campaign I motivate my friends to initiate same types of  campaigns in their friend circle to promote environmental education and to raise my voice as well.
