Environment

Delving into the environmental attitudes of college students in Tamil Nadu, our study reveals that students have a fondness for nature, a commitment to conservation, but show neutrality on key issues such as eco centric concern. Additionally, we convened a workshop involving academicians, researchers, environmentalists, and journalists to revisit the existing UGC environmental studies curriculum. The outcome report and model syllabus from this workshop serves as an addendum to the main report.

With over 5 months left in 2021, we’ve already used up our ecological resources for 2021. We need to stop funding further fossil fuel extraction. Inclusive & sustainable decisions need to be taken to #MoveTheDate & live within #Earth’s means. #EarthOvershootDay

According to WWF, there are only 3900 #tigers left on #Earth. Climate change induced sea level rise and forest fires are posing a threat to the already fragmented tiger habitats. Their survival is in our hands. #wildforlife #conservation #SaveTigers. #InternationalTigerDay

Fossil fuel exploration has a negative effect on biodiversity & biodiversity loss is having large cascade effects on ecosystem function and productivity. This #WorldNatureConservationDay let us take a pledge to care & protect nature. #SayNoToFossilFuels #nature #climatechange

#Mangroves are valued as a remarkable and diverse ecosystem that protect the coastal communities against extreme weather events. But increasing effects of #ClimateChange are posing a great threat to mangroves in #India.  #savemangrove #nature #InternationalMangroveDay
