On August 24 Sumit and Niranjan led a team
of 6 people in a programme to clear wild growth from around a hand pump at Potiya.
Wild growth had proliferated around the hand pump and access to the pump was
affected. Our team, comprising 6 villagers, removed the wild
growth and cleaned the area.
On August 21 Niranjan Hinge repaired a defective
biogas unit in Aamajhiri village. Biogas helps reduce the dependency of
villagers on fuel wood from forest areas and also helps them due to reduced
smoke emissions.
We held 1 programme during August to
promote awareness on crop protection. Farmers were informed about natural, bird
based pest control solutions which they can adopt at their farms to reduce pest
pressure.
During the month of August, 3 plantation
programs were organised in which a total of 60 saplings belonging to various
species like mango, neem, lemon, pipal, and jamun were planted by the villagers. These saplings were prepared by
us with the help of the nature clubs formed in the schools.
On
August 17, our team organised an event at Government Middle School, Telia to promote awareness about wildlife
and tiger conservation. As part of our programme, we organised a rally in which
around 39 students walked through the village, chanting slogans for wildlife
and nature conservation.
On August 28, our team organised a
kitchen garden programme at Middle School Kohoka with the help of Nature club. Students
and teachers were made aware of the benefits of a kitchen garden, and the basic
design of kitchen gardens was explained along with water-conservation benefits
associated with such an activity. Seed of spinach, tomato, coriander, fenugreek
etc. were distributed by our team.

were 7 environment education programmes in schools during August.
