Glad to share that our ambitious ecological restoration project aimed at reclaiming 800 acres of barren land in Ladakh, through a simple, cost-effective freshwater engineering technique, has begun yielding remarkable results. After treating the arid soil with fresh glacier water for a few days, mustard seeds were scattered across...

She Turned Barren Desert Into A Thriving Forest in Rajasthan What happens when one woman returns from the USA with a mission to rebuild the soil of Rajasthan? This is the story of Deepti Agrawal, an inspiring woman who is overseeing an extraordinary environmental transformation: turning desert-like soil into a lush green organic forest. Her work is heavily inspired by Allan Savory, whose regenerative grazing and holistic land management principles emphasize restoring soil health, improving water cycles, and using animals as allies in healing degraded landscapes. Deepti adapted these ideas to the Indian context, proving they work even in extreme desert conditions. A key part of her success is the indigenous Tharparkar cow—a resilient desert breed whose dung, urine, and presence are central to her regenerative approach. These cows provide natural fertility, enhance soil microbiology, and help build long-term ecological stability without chemicals. Her work proves that with patience, community support, and ecological wisdom, even the harshest landscapes can heal.

I congratulate Hon. PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji for the colossal success of India's G20 Presidency. Under PM Modi Ji's leadership, India has emerged as a voice for the Global South and has shown that even in these times of major geopolitical divide, nations can cooperate for a better future for the planet and its people. The adoption of the New Delhi Leaders' Declaration at the summit has been particularly pathbreaking as it brought major world powers to a consensus on pertinent issues of geopolitics and climate. Our G20 success is a watershed in India's diplomacy and has ushered in a sense of pride in the hearts of every Indian. It is also a testament to the timeless quality of our cultural values, which teach us that we are indeed One Earth, One Family, with One Future. #G20India

Long before climate change became a headline, Kollakkayil Devaki Amma was quietly planting saplings in her backyard in Alappuzha. After a leg injury forced her to stop paddy farming, she planted a single tree. Then another. And another. What began as healing slowly became a mission. Today, she has transformed barren coastal sandy land into a living sanctuary with 3,000+ rare, indigenous, and medicinal plants, ponds, wetlands, birds, animals, and a dense green cover that breathes life into Kerala’s coast. Four generations of her family have nurtured this forest. Her grandchildren plant trees during vacations. One even chose botany, inspired by her quiet devotion. She uses only organic manure, harvests rainwater, and makes space for birds and animals instead of fencing them out. “Planting a tree is the most effective way to cancel our carbon footprint,” she says, having done exactly that for over 40 years. India honoured her with the Padma Shri in the Unsung Heroes category for afforestation, conservation, and showing us what true environmental responsibility looks like. #Environment #Sustainability #ClimateAction #NatureLovers #PadmaShri [Environmental Conservation, Tree Plantation, Sustainable Living, Climate Change Awareness, Inspiring Indian Stories, Padma Shri]

Just watched this video on Israel in Kenya, and as we mark Mazingira Day, I couldn’t help reflecting on Israel, a nation born out of the desert, yet now one of the most food-secure, green, and technologically advanced agricultural economies in the world. With less rainfall than most parts of Kenya, Israel has turned arid land into productive farmland through innovation, from drip irrigation and water recycling, to climate-smart farming and reforestation. Today, it exports food, technology, and knowledge that sustain millions beyond its borders. Meanwhile, Kenya, blessed with vast arable land and favorable weather, still struggles with food insecurity. Entire counties remain dependent on relief food, even as our investment in modern agriculture and environmental restoration remains minimal. We have so much to learn from Israel’s model, its discipline, long-term planning, and commitment to turning scarcity into sustainability. Let this Mazingira Day be more than a celebration. It should be a wake-up call to reimagine our environmental and agricultural future. As our population continues to grow, we must invest more deliberately in climate adaptability, sustainable land use, and long-term food security. Happy #MazingiraDay

A small oasis of hope and regeneration in the arid landscape of Rajasthan, nurtured with sheer determination of the local community, has emerged as a replicable model for fighting desertification and infusing life to a dying earth. Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, on 14 June 2021, declared India’s commitment to Land Degradation Neutrality, aiming to restore 26 million hectares of degraded land by 2030. Inspired by his clarion call, I, then serving as Chairperson, Khadi & Village Industries Commission (KVIC), started an exercise that would go on to simultaneously achieve de-desertification, reclamation and restoration. When I first visited Nichla Mandwa village in Udaipur District of Rajasthan in the last week of June 2021, for site selection, no one would have imagined that targeted efforts at greening and plantations, launched on 04.07.2021, would end up creating a whole new eco system of diverse flora and fauna in a barren landscape, within four years. The journey of this amazing transformation began with the villagers offering 25 acres of Gram Sabha land for rejuvenation. The transformation achieved thereafter, is a story of human resilience and ingenuity. KVIC & an Ahmedabad-based NGO “National Council for Civil Liberties” (NCCL) joined hands to prepare this land for mass plantation, with involvement of local Woman Sarpanch, MLA & the Member of Parliament (MP). About 5500 plants of various species - primarily Bamboo (Bambusa Tulda & Bambusa Polymorpha) brought in from Assam were planted on the location. Saplings of Guava, Papaya, Gooseberry (Amla), Mango, Moringa, etc. were also planted. A solar powered bore-well was dug to meet the watering needs. A defunct check-dam was repaired and innovative measures like use of mulching, by utilizing organic kitchen waste from nearby hotels, for strengthening plantation, were undertaken. A trench was dug around the entire periphery of the 25 acres land parcel, with the aim of not only storing rain water, but also keeping away stray animals from plants in their early growth cycle. A boundary wall was also constructed around the site, using the MPLAD Funds of the then area MP, Shri Arjun Lal Meena. Bamboos were specially chosen for their resilience, less water requirement and high water retention, that, in turn, helps raise water tables apart from emitting 30% more oxygen and providing a seal against UV Rays. Amla, Guava, Mango, Moringa - all fruiting trees were chosen to introduce new fauna - mammals, reptiles and arthropods, apart from enriching the floral diversity. I kept a watch on the transformation taking place, visiting the village twice thereafter and it was heartening to see squirrels, peacocks, chameleons, butterflies, dragonflies, grasshoppers and others teaming around the trees, on my visit to the restored site on 04.09.2025. The entire exercise was completed at a cost of just ₹5 Lakh. The aim was not only restoration & reclamation of degraded barren land, but also creating opportunities of livelihood & local employment. Bamboo provides raw material for cottage industries like Incense Sticks (Agarbatti), Kite and Furniture. Its availability in the vicinity, will enable such units to generate employment locally. This video is a tribute to vision of the Hon’ble PM. It is an exemplar of human imagination & community engagement. I hope that public spirited citizens of our country and government bodies will be inspired to take similar steps to heal Mother Earth. This is just a humble effort, a small token of gratitude to give back to nature, which nurtures humanity. Nichla Mandwa stands as a testimony of how a low-cost project can foster an eco-system that boosts scarce natural resources, enriches people’s lives & counters the larger threat of global warming. I hope this serves as a replicable model for healing vast degraded landscapes and create sustainable futures - not only for our country, but the entire Globe. Bhupender Yadav

Mumbai Climate Week: Leading the charge toward a Green Global South Glad to inaugurate and address the 'Mumbai Climate Week', India’s first comprehensive platform dedicated to accelerating climate action at scale in presence of Hon Union Minister Pralhad Joshi ji. Mumbai Climate Week is not just a platform for discussion, but a decisive step toward meaningful climate action. Under the visionary leadership of Hon PM Narendra Modi Ji, India has shown the world that development and environmental responsibility can move forward together. India has already crossed renewable energy capacity of 260 GW, and Maharashtra is playing a pivotal role by contributing nearly 48 GW. We have set an ambitious target to generate more than 50% of our energy from green sources by 2030. Maharashtra is rapidly advancing clean energy adoption across industrial corridors, driving the transition towards electric mobility in cities, strengthening the integration of EVs into public transportation, and enhancing flood management through climate-resilient urban development. This commitment extends far beyond urban regions, as Maharashtra is also nurturing a sustainable rural ecosystem by promoting eco-friendly agricultural practices, efficient water management, and technology-enabled solutions, ensuring that our villages actively contribute to and benefit from this green transformation. Mumbai has the strength, vision, and potential to emerge as a climate finance gateway for the Global South. Through the message of sustainable living under ‘Mission LiFE’, the belief is simple yet powerful: environmental transformation must be visible, measurable, and strongly implemented on the ground. Minister Pankajatai Munde, Mumbai Mayor Ritutai Tawde, Founder and CEO of Project Mumbai Shishir Joshi, and other dignitaries were present.

At TVS Motor, we believe that industrial growth and ecological balance can go hand in hand: 🌳 TVS Hosur site is earmarked as potential OECM (Other Effective Area-based Conservation Measures), by UNDP and Biodiversity Authority of India. 🌳 Across all 3 sites in India, total 42% of the land is covered with human grown forest - now home to over 900 species of flora and fauna. This International Day for Biological Diversity, let’s reaffirm our commitment to living in balance with nature and building a sustainable future together. #TVSMotor #BiodiversityDay #RSEL #CoexistWithNature

Inaugurated the first of its kind Rock Check Dam on River Sindhu in Leh, under the ambitious “Sindhu Jal Samriddhi Abhiyan”, conceived as a sustainable, cost-effective solution for water and agricultural sustainability in Ladakh. Unlike the traditional concrete check dams, this innovative Rock Check Dam is semi-permanent barrier, built by interlocking big rocks, collected from the riverbed. This slows down the flow of the river and creates a huge water pondage area, to be used by farmers for agricultural purposes. Dimensions & Scale: •Location: Upshi, Ladakh Altitude: 11,400 ft •Length of the check dam – 200 feet •Base Width – 30 feet •Top deck width – 15 feet •Height – 5 feet •Rocks used – 180 MT (approx) •Pondage area – Approx 500 meters upstream •Water Storage Capacity – 40 million litres (approx) •Construction time – 7 days •Construction cost – Rs 10 lakh The Rock check dam has been designed to withhold water pressure and prevent it from getting washed away when the water level in the river increases during summer months. Have directed the Irrigation & Flood Control Department to construct three more such check dams, on experimental basis. I am confident, this Rock Check Dam would emerge as an imitable model of engineering ingenuity and ecological sensitivity. It will offer sustainable remedy for farmers’ irrigation woes, strengthen water security and support sustainable agriculture in remote villages of Ladakh.
