As part of Green Action Week we engaged school and college students through hands-on activities in waste segregation and the urgent need to reduce single-use plastics. By teaching, encouraging, and modelling sustainable habits, we are cultivating a generation empowered to share solutions, reduce waste, and lead with responsibility.

TN led the way in 2007 with its Road Safety Policy. It’s time to lead again. TN MUST update the policy and create a Strong Road safety Action Plan to make our roads safe.
#AirPollution is one of India’s biggest health threats, causing millions of deaths each year. On average, it cuts an Indian’s life expectancy by 5.3 years. It is time to #ActNow. Switch to #RenewableEnergy, use public transport, and demand #CleanAir #BlueSkies
Green Action Week 2025 is here, championing the sharing of skills, resources, and tools to reduce waste, fight greenwashing, and build lasting sustainable habits.
We have a series of events designed for young people to inspire them to embrace sustainable lifestyles. Be part of the movement: host a clothes swap, start a seed-sharing circle, or lead an upcycling challenge.
Are you in? Small steps, big impact!
Solar panel costs have dropped significantly, making solar energy more affordable than ever. Homeowners can now recover their initial investment in just 4-6 years while potentially eliminating their electricity bills entirely. This transition is further supported by substantial government incentives, including a central government subsidy of ₹78,000 under the PM Surya Ghar Scheme.
#SDG 9 focuses on building resilient infrastructure, promoting innovation, and supporting sustainable industrial growth. In #India, efforts to strengthen industry and infrastructure are key to driving economic development and creating jobs for millions across the country.

India needs urgent action: stronger MVAA reforms, strict enforcement, and streets designed for safety.
Road safety isn’t optional. It must be a national priority.
We asked students in 3 schools to write postcards describing their dream school routes.
Their visions? Tree-lined paths, safe cycle tracks, and roads where kids can walk and ride freely; without always needing an adult by their side.
Because every child deserves a safe, joyful journey to school.
Do you know that a 1 kW rooftop solar PV system requires only about 100 ft2 or 10 m2 of unobstructed shadow free area on the rooftop? To determine the total space required, multiply the desired system capacity (in kW) by the space required per kW. For example, for a 3 kW system, the required roof space would be 3 kW x 100 ft2/kW, which equals 300 ft2.
#SDG8 is about creating opportunities for all, like fair wages, safe workplaces & sustainable growth. With India’s youth power, thriving MSMEs & growing green jobs, we can build an economy that empowers people & leaves no one behind. #Act4SDGs
