Initiatives

Greenopedia

In 2018, On the occasion of 'World Biodiversity Day', we launched our website 'Greenopedia'. It is a collection of information of 80+ plant species present inside the institute. It will help you to get a wider insight about these species and their different parts. Do visit to explore more about floral diversity of our campus.

Transplanation

Once the sapling is mature enough to grow by their own, we transplant them to various places in the institute. Recently, we have had a plantation drive in hostel 6 and hostel 9 on the occasion of 'World Environment Day'.

Prakriti

It is a forum to share interesting factual and practical information about nature. If you love gardening and would like to know some unique features of mother nature, do follow our blog and join our Prakriti google group..

A Sapling a Wing

A Sapling a Wing focuses on the ecological and environmental value of plants and motivates hostel inmates to nurture plants in their own wings. This year we conducted this activity in hostel 2, 3, 4, and 9. .

Vanmahotsav

Van Mahotsav is a week long forest festival in order to promote plantations and create awareness about adverse effects of deforestation. We carried out bottle plantation activities for KV and campus school children, thus motivating future generation to save environment

Sapling Collection Drive

Under the canopy of large trees, we encountered many small saplings. We collected such saplings from different parts of institute and transplanted them in the covers in our nursery.

Plantation in Coconuts

People usually drink coconut water and throw them. We collect these waste coconuts and plant saplings of various species such as Balsam, Sadaphuli, and small cuttings in them.

Green Diwali

In a first-of-its-kind activity, we made eco-friendly "diyas" using fruit peels. Our volunteers also spread the message of celebrating eco-friendly Diwali as shown in the pictures below.

Nature Walk

e had our first experience of Nature Walk in year 2017 with the kids of NGO Vidya. Last year we had our nature walk with NGO LCCWA. We showed them various plants and trees growing in along the main road and inside the Main Nursery. Their inquisitiveness and enthusiasm was mesmerizing!

Reusing Waste

Accounting to the harmful effects of plastic, we came up with an idea of planting beautiful saplings in waste plastic bottles and reused them. We also reused waste bamboo for creating fence.

Flex Cover Making

Many events take place in insti all the time, and lot of sponsorship is involved in them. The sponsors mainly advertise using flex banners. But after the fest is over, these banners have no use and are treated as waste. We at Green Campus reuse and make flex covers out of them to plant saplings and seeds in our nursery.

Biodiversity Mapping

This year, we extended bio-mapping activity all over the institute. We mapped over 1000 plants in various parts of the campus and hanged placards on them. We nearly covered all the areas in the institute except hostels and academic area. In the coming year, we shall be covering them as well.

Vrikshabandhan

On the occasion of Rakhi, the love and affection that binds brother to sister, and vice-versa. We celebrate Vrikshabandhan to protect our trees by collaborating with campus residents celebrates Vrikshabandhan - a bond of love between us and the trees.
