Environmentalism, environmental movements in india, threats to nature, stake holder responsibility towards environment, SOME ACTIVE GOVT. AND NON GOVT. ORGANIZATIONS IN INDIA FOR ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN, environmental policy.
The relationship between humanity and the environment is a delicate balance. Since the industrial revolution, the world's population has increased exponentially, and with the population growth, the environment has been profoundly affected. Deforestation, pollution and global climate changes are amongst the adverse effects the population and technological expansion has introduced. Included in this category are both subjects dealing with attempts to reduce the negative impact on the environment, and subjects which aim to gain a greater understanding of the environment itself.
This is a Powerpoint on Green Living to address issues of Globalaal Warming shared to you.Go Green and reduce your Carbon foot prints. timothywooi2@gmail.com
Global environmental education program that trains volunteers to conserve natural resources for future generations and protect human health.It strives for protecting human health in a community by promoting environmental stewardship.It is a grass roots environmental program which unites parents , teachers and Students to create a culture of conservation among people and community.
Green Business practices, for small and medium businesses. Lets hope some companies at least follow it, and if they do we will be able to save our planet.

Environmental impact assesment through the waste.pptxTaalaiMambetov1
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is a process used to identify and evaluate the potential environmental effects of a proposed project or development, such as waste management activities. Waste can have a significant impact on the environment, including air, water, and soil quality, as well as on human health.
This ppt has been made by our intern Nidhi Goyal. Feel free to share and download the Green Yatra ppt. Our main objective has always been to leave the world better than we found it. You can also help us in our FREE services such as Go GREEN Kids, Plant a Tree- Plant a new life, Rehabilitation center, Medical camps, Zaroorat - A Need, Go GREEN Ganesha presentations, workshops, events in schools, colleges and residential societies, Medical camps, collecting daily usable things under the project Zaroorat – A Need.
Zaroorat a need for an enlightened globeGreen Yatra
Zaroorat - A Need is a Green Yatra Initiative, which works on a premise that one man’s waste can be another man’s richness. It is not only possible, but realistically doable. Zaroorat - A Need project does not wait for disasters to strike before we are ready to provide for basic human living needs. It’s a bank that makes a difference as it does not deal in money, but in old Clothes, Toys, Books, Stationary etc. and other lots of basic needs durable goods, one of the basic human needs after food and shelter.
The main goal of Zaroorat - A Need initiative is to appropriate basic living needs from a place of abundance to a place of need. We have high hopes that those of us who are more fortunate will respond to this call of balance, care, compassion and all will join hands with Green Yatra to feel the sheer joy of giving and helping our Mother Earth to make it more beautiful, clean, green and pollution free for better Present and Future.
Environmental degradation and it’s consequent effects by Green YatraGreen Yatra
The effect of Environmental degradation can seriously disrupt the balance of nature Pesticides can damage crops, Some pollutants can get into our systems indirectly from eating vegetables grown in contaminated soil. Reduced aesthetic appeal.
ROBOTHON in association with Green YatraGreen Yatra
The student of D.J. Sanghvi College of Engineering in association with Green Yatra organizing a marthon for robots called as the ROBOTHON. These robots will not only run to support our cause, but they can also be built to keep our streets clean with robots which can sweep and gather waste from the roads.
Have you ever wondered what the different vitamins, minerals or trace elements are? What they actually mean to your diet and what effect thet have your body? Find out all you should need to know here.
Kindly spread the words and encourage children around u aged between 6-18yrs ... be the part of Go GREEN Kids for more info kindly visit www.greenyatra.org

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
