Climate Action Project

Interaction with Belgium Leonardo College

Environmental Crisis is a global problem

Only Global action will resolve it

• Barry Commoner

The Climate Action Project has shrunk the world and this has led to virtual gathering in the period of social distancing.  To address the pivotal issue of Climate change, Sanjivani Junior College had a computerized meeting with Leonardo College from Belgium as a part of their journey of Climate Action project. Many constructive steps were discussed and were put forth by both the schools. The school from Belgium practices the use of renewable form of energy that is solar energy in their college. They also advocate reduced use of plastics. The issue related to pollution in Ganges River in India was a part of the interaction. In this way various steps and actions taken by both the schools were discussed. To make the session a little lighter, students from Sanjivani Junior College performed a mask dance to profess the need for a Climate action plan. The various activities done by the Sanjivanites to combat the growing climate change were interestingly demonstrated by the children. In this way there was an absorbing and insightful give and take of ideas, plans, suggestions and recommendations between the two schools. This kind of alliance between the young torch bearers for the global call was extremely worthwhile and efficacious.
