Coimbatore: The founder and spiritual head of the Isha Foundation, Sadhguru, has called the Green TN Initiative of the Tamil Nadu Government a ‘much-needed initiative’ under the changing environmental conditions.
Sadhguru, founder of Isha FoundationCoimbatore has tweeted lauding the Tamil Nadu government’s Green TN Initiative. He tweeted, “#CauveryCalling extends its wholehearted support to the #GreenTNMission, a much-needed initiative that will revive Soil health & bring prosperity & wellbeing to the State. Congratulations to Govt. of TN.–Sg”.
“The Green TN Mission has set an ambitious goal of planting 265-crore saplings in Tamil Nadu over the next 10 years. In the first phase, the state government has sanctioned Rs 38.80-crore for the production of 1.77-crore saplings in the next two years.
Isha’s Cauvery Calling movement is aiming to bring one-third of the Cauvery River basin area under shade in order to enhance soil health and revitalize River Cauvery.The project area of Cauvery Calling spans into Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. The Cauvery Calling movement has enabled the planting of 2.1-crore saplings on agricultural lands in the Cauvery basin in 2020 and 2021 and has set itself a goal of planting 3.5-crore saplings by 2022.While Isha’s farmer-led, volunteer-driven initiative is being implemented on private farmlands, the Green TN Mission will cover public lands including educational institutions, temple grounds, and sacred groves among other spaces.
It is now acknowledged globally that increasing green cover is one of the simplest and most effective ways to mitigate climate change impact while also improving farmer economy,” read the press note issued by the Isha Foundation.
