“It feels nice to see citizens and role models like actor Vipul Roy come forward to hold hands with us with the civic officials in this amazing initiative by Vishvas Mote, Asst Commissioner, BMC alongside us. We are happy we are able to move a few baby steps forward to Make Earth Green Again,” added Anusha Srinivasan Iyer of Make Earth Green Again MEGA Foundation.

World Environment Day 2021 marked the start of BMC’s ‘Be A Tree Parent’ MEGA Vriksha Campaign. Instituted by the K West Ward Asst Commissioner Mr. Vishvas Mote, along with Anusha Srinivasan Iyer of Make Earth Green Again MEGA Foundation and Vriksha Nursery, the campaign involves and encourages societies and residents to adopt tree pits from the 348 Mumbai locations where trees had fallen in the K West Ward, post Cyclone Tauktae, and replant identified, fast-growing native tree species in those locations.

The campaign has also seen active participation from police personnel and citizens alike. And the numbers seem to only be growing.
