Environmental protection is a practice of protecting the environment for the benefit of the individual and society in large .the main objective is the reduction of pollution and making the environment more CLEAN AND GREEN. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle are the “3” s that helps us to reduce global warming. As an initiative from the PG Department of Botany, the project‘GO GREEN’ is initiated. The rationale behind the programme is not only the solid waste management of the campus, but also to create awareness on clean and green environment amongst students and to promote leadership opportunities to them.
Solid waste of the campus falls under three categories namely
Management of paper waste
The company ITC has a corporate social responsibility scheme named “ Wealth Out of Waste (WOW) which involves corporate and Educational institutions. The company gives collection bins, where even torn papers, tickets etc. are collected. Collection van visits the campus, weights the paper and encashes either in the form of A4 sheets or as Cheques.
Plastic waste
Plastic collection bins will be placed in the campus. Local venders will collect the waste weekly.
Biodegradable waste
Biodegradable waste will be collected and processed for compost. The solar fed compost will initially be used for our own use and in the future it will be sold.
A series of lectures, workshop and training on Clean- Green environment is planned throughout the year
Each class has three volunteers who will be named as Go green volunteers who will monitor the cleanliness of the class room and segregation of waste and each floor will have one active volunteer as Floor Leader who will be in charge of the cleanliness of the floor. Each Block will have one Block leader who is the active participant and leader by herselfwho will coordinate with the floor leaders. One student coordinator will be selected. She will coordinate the entire activity. This type of Leadership ladder will motivate the students and help them mould them self in to an effective leader in due course.
