Environment Day

There is special emphasis for the preservation of the environment in Jammu and Kashmir and the administration is working on the ground to implement different ideas of the government.

Recently Lt Governor Manoj Sinha addressed the World Environment Day event at Srinagar.

He reiterated UT Administration’s commitment to protect the environment and natural resources and sustainable, inclusive development

He said our resolution on this year’s environment day is to ‘Beat Plastic Pollution’. It is now the responsibility of the entire society to accomplish this resolution through the spirit of Jan Bhagidari.

He said we are truly fortunate that nature has selflessly  given us everything that is necessary for a better life and it is our bounden duty to show sensitivity towards nature and make efforts to conserve natural resources

We need to adopt an integrated approach, circularity economy- Reuse, Recycle, Reorient and Diversify to reduce plastic pollution.

It is high time we should incentivize and promote sustainable alternative materials for redesign and repackaging of products to protect the environment.

This decade is going to matter the most in preventing catastrophic climate change and mitigating biodiversity loss. By 2040, we will be able to reduce plastic pollution by 20% only by adopting the strategy of a circular economy.
