Satsang with green warriors

13th December 2015



Change of setting from the metropolis to a rural belt evoked a sense of gratitude and fulfillment with a great opportunity to interact and sing for the farming community.

The green warriors in the District under the banner of VETRY deserve special mention. As their contribution to reduce global warming, this social forestry group is in the midst of a campaign – Vanathukkul Tirupur. They have so far planted over 1.25 lakh saplings in 100 days. A total of 84 companies, schools, colleges, social welfare organizations even temples are participating. 24 firms provided GPS- fitted tractors to water the saplings and protect them in the years ahead. Operations thus monitored from the Control room.

The Community has already achieved, first of its kind, zero liquid discharge in processing units saving eight crore litres of water per day – effective saving of pumped fresh water. May their tribe increase!
