Despite environmental laws and regulations being in place for half a century, there is a perceptible decline in the quality of the environment in India and the world. Environmental problems, e.g., climate change, biodiversity loss, etc., have now become far too big for individual countries to tackle. People must now influence governmental policy and supplement governmental efforts. This can be best done by forming a rainbow coalition of people’s initiatives in environmental conservation and protection. A civil society platform, Parisarakkagi Navu (We for the Environment) of Karnataka’s environmental groups was formed in December 2023. The formation of similar platforms in Goa and Maharashtra are under active discussion.

We have the pleasure of inviting you for a meeting to discuss forming a platform of those--mass organizations, civil society organizations, environmental groups and individuals--working in Telangana to conserve and protect its environment.

Meeting date and time: Sunday, 7 April, 5.00 pm Meeting location (address & location below): LaMakaan, Off Road 1, Near GVK Mall, Banjara Hills. Hyderabad 500034. Google Maps location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/N2PzoKWxNt2DtuyL7
