Appreciating the inspiring work of Eco Clubs in Schools Sh. Debendra Dalai, IFS, CCF cum Director, Department of Environment said that such green initiatives empower students to participate and take up meaningful environmental activities and projects. It is a forum through which students can reach out to influence, engage their parents and neighborhood communities to promote sound environmental behavior. Eco Clubs also empower students to explore environmental concepts and actions beyond the confines of a syllabus or curriculum. While everyone, everywhere, asserts the importance of ‘learning to live sustainably,’ the environment remains a peripheral issue in the formal schooling system. It is not just an extracurricular activity but a must for all the people at all times, if we have to live a healthy and peaceful life. Sh. Dalai also added that the theme of World Environment Day-2021 is 'Ecosystem Restoration with the slogan Reimagine, Recreate and Restore' as this year marks the beginning of the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration.
