  • We are facing an unprecedented ecological crisis in our country today, on all fronts, including land, water and air. Need of the hour is a concerted effort from all stakeholders, to realize the emergency and act accordingly. Sustainability cannot be an academic discussion, it needs to be an on-ground practice, for there is no planet B. Vimlendu Jha is currently one of India’s foremost environmentalists. He founded Swechha in 2000 and has turned it into one of India’s most influential organisations on youth matters. In 2004, India’s leading news magazines, India Today and Outlook, acknowledged Vimlendu as one of the top 25 youth leaders of India. In the same year, he was profiled as one of the top 25 youth leaders of the world by the International Youth Foundation through the international publication ‘Our Time is Now’. In 2007, Vimlendu was selected as one of 6 worldwide change makers by CNN International to be part of the Be the Change programme, which followed his work for over a year and was viewed by more than 100 million people worldwide. Vimlendu serves on the board of several national and international foundations. In 2011, he was invited to speak at the UN General Assembly on youth issues in the global south. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    All of Nature suffers from Man's poor spiritual state. [] "Man is organic with the world. His inner life molds the environment and is itself deeply affected by it. The one acts upon the other and every abiding change in the life of man is the result of these mutual reactions." [] ~ Baha'i Faith

    The governments are the first responsible party since they have the ability to stop these behave legally. Also, the individuals who share in climate change causes. Furthermore, the scientists and researchers, because they have not used their skills to enrich this vital issue with solutions.
    We can say that it is our responsibility to protect our environment and to save our mother earth from being deteriorated.

    Did he mention, anywhere during the video, the population of India in 2019 (about 1.3B)? Roughly 1.3B people in a country that's about the size of the continental US, but with about 4x the population! And let's not forget that people of planet Earth expect to live better and with MORE resources at their disposal (food, health, transport, etc...) all the time! If we can't talk about population numbers, we can all stop talking about these problems, period!
