• Orientation programs have been conducted for the children at school premises on alarming
issue that is pollution and importance of plantations for pollution free community and also
empowered on the emerging health problems caused due to pollution
• School authorities also have been participated in this program and were very keen on im-
proving the environment in their schools
• The importance of trees in purifying the air, as natural resources, maintaining the ecological
balance, preventing soil erosion, as medicines, habitats for faunal species, providing
nutrients to the soil etc. is well known.
• The present forest and tree cover in the country according to the State of Forest Report
2001 of the Forest Survey of India is 23.03 per cent. According to the National Forest Policy,
the country is required to achieve a forest cover target of 25 per cent by 2007 and 33 per
cent cover by 2012
• Again, against the National Forest Policy requirement of 33 per cent forest cover in every
State, Delhi’s figure is 10.2 per cent
• The involvement of people - particularly at the grassroots level - and agencies outside the
Government is crucial for achieving these targets.
• As far as possible, native trees should be planted. Trees like Eucalyptus, Australian Acacia,
Lantana, Lucena, Mast tree (False Asoka) should be avoided.
• Each student were given a responsibility of maintenance of one plant in schools
• The children were taught not to throw the waste on roads everywhere even at home or schools
which is hazardous to public health
