Advit Foundation invites the citizens of Delhi and Gurgaon to come together and join hands in support of the carbon offsetting plantation programme carried out with the Delhi Metro near MG Road Metro Station, Gurgaon. The programme is meant to develop and enhance the green belt under the Gurgaon Metro track.
Date: 8th August, 2010 (Sunday)
Time: 8 am
Venue: MG Road Metro Station (in front of City Center Mall)
While the green cover of Delhi has reportedly enhanced in the past decade, rampant urbanization and urban sprawl in the satellite towns has led to a considerable decrease in number and diversity of trees there. However, in order to sustain a healthy NCR, it is critical to address this issue at the earliest and promote the development of city parks and forests in the NCR in line with the pace of green work in the NCT.
For more information and to participate, contact mathangi@advit.org or 9868202906.

It was a great experience! We felt so good to see the sight of the HUDA water tanker coming in and pouring generous helpings of water all over the saplings we’d planted!
