The industrialization has given us a lot, but it has taken away a lot as well.

It is important that we understand the damages we have caused to achieve our comforts.

2 most important things which we need to work on are:

Our Mental & Physical well being🧘
Our Planet's health🌍

[Change Started @ChangeStarted]

Take care of your planet health
Take care of your mental health

Good to see Mother Dairy introducing milk in degradable packets.

I hope other brands follow suit.

For the first time, I have seen a short film shot in Lucknow.

The 10-minute film is not only relevant and breaks gender stereotypes, but it also presents the new #Lucknow extremely well.

I hope this visit by the PM and President to a sacred grove raises awareness about these patches of preserved natural vegetation dedicated to local deities or ancestral spirits.

They play a vital role in maintaining biodiversity ecosystems and should be preserved.

ରାଷ୍ଟ୍ରପତିଙ୍କ ସହିତ ପାହାଡ଼ପୁର ଗାଁରେ ସାନ୍ତାଳୀ ଜାହେର ଏବଂ ହୋ ଜାହେର ପରିଦର୍ଶନ କଲି ।

ମୁଁ ଏହି ପବିତ୍ର ଉପବନରେ ଶ୍ରଦ୍ଧାସୁମନ ଅର୍ପଣ କଲି । ଏହା ଆମ ଜନଜାତି ସମ୍ପ୍ରଦାୟର ଗଭୀର ଆଧ୍ୟାତ୍ମିକ ପରମ୍ପରା ଓ ପ୍ରକୃତି ସହ ସାମଞ୍ଜସ୍ୟପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ ସମ୍ପର୍କକୁ ଦର୍ଶାଇଥାଏ । ଏଭଳି ରୀତିନୀତି ଓ ପରମ୍ପରା ଭାରତର ସମୃଦ୍ଧ ସାଂସ୍କୃତିକ ଐତିହ୍ୟର ଅଭିନ୍ନ ଅଙ୍ଗ ।

ଭବିଷ୍ୟତ ପିଢ଼ି ପାଇଁ ଏସବୁ ଚିରନ୍ତନ ପରମ୍ପରାକୁ ସଂରକ୍ଷିତ ରଖିବା ଏବଂ ପ୍ରୋତ୍ସାହିତ କରିବା ଲାଗି ଆମେ ସଂକଳ୍ପବଦ୍ଧ ।

Pollution has reached remote parts of the Himalayas, and we should be worried.

A study by a government institute has found the presence of Non-methane hydrocarbons resulting from human activities (such as excessive tourism)

This can have a severe impact on delicate ecosystems.

[Change Started @ChangeStarted]

A new study by researchers has revealed that human-caused air pollution in the Himalayas is reaching even remote parts.

This has the potential to impact delicate ecosystems and human health.

An important initiative discussed by #IndianRailways aims to enable large-scale transportation of fly ash through the railway network.

This will enable a #circulareconomy in which waste becomes wealth and a burden becomes a building block.

The Titan Story, a new web series, is not just a powerful story of an amazing Indian brand; it also inspires and motivates.

The story is a masterclass in entrepreneurship, capturing how companies are built through perseverance, sacrifices, and constant failures.

[Mangalam Maloo @blitzkreigm]

Just watched Made in India, the Titan Story.

Brilliantly made series! Should watch it :)

Personally, it was a crazy trip down memory lane.

Inspired by the book, in 2018, I went down to Hosur, at their first factory - to interview Bhaskar Bhat (Gaurav Dhar in the series)

You’ll find bits and pieces of everything from the series and beyond, in this.

@sanjeevsanyal Good that I did my skydiving before the AI era, otherwise people would not have believed.

While dogs, cats and even elephants have played an integral part in many movies, I have never seen a marine animal tie the story together so beautifully.

Remarkable Bright Creatures on #Netflix brings an amazing emotional story through the eyes of 🐙.

Yamuna rejuvenation receives additional attention as India's Home Minister directs that 59 additional Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) will be built by the end of 2027.

129 STPs have been constructed so far across Delhi, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh.

India's Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation, Mr Amit Shah, chaired a review meeting on the issue of Yamuna revitalisation in Delhi today.

Salute to Ahilyabai Holkar on her birth anniversary.

A lady who despite personal tragedies provided outstanding governance, revived many Hindu temples, and brought progressive social reforms.

One of the finest cultural icons of India.

If India has to develop jet engines, win Olympic medals, create entrepreneurs, and build a developed nation, we have to move away from traditional routes and a colonial mindset.

An interesting discussion on what we can learn from our ancient history and look ahead.

[Varun @chikchik18]

Don't know if it is an oversight, ignorance or deliberate crime.

In spite of Delhi poor air quality, the DDA parks will keep burning biomass.

In 2011, the Supreme Court passed a judgment asking Indian states to map GIS-based forest boundaries.

Knowing boundaries is essential to protect biodiversity, prevent illegal encroachment, and manage natural resources sustainably.

Yet most states have done nothing about it.

[Change Started @ChangeStarted]

National Authority CAMPA organised a national workshop in New Delhi on the settlement and digitisation of Forest Boundaries in India.
