Two major initiatives announced in India to protect the environment
The two initiatives were announced at an event held in the Indian capital, New Delhi, recently. The event was held in partnership with the Balipara Foundation, Conservation International, PackTV , and Studio Silverback.
The two initiatives are ‘The Great People’s Forest of the Eastern Himalayas’ and ‘Planet India.’ Organizers say, ‘One Earth, one family, one future’ – two initiatives have been taken in response to this call.
