GREEN PROJECTS
Numerous individuals and organisations are dedicated to environmental preservation and are actively
implementing green projects. These initiatives focus on areas such as waste management, energy conservation,
green sanitation, biofuel utilisation and green building practices.
Green Projects in India
India is progressing in clean and green technologies with various organisations collaborating to promote
environmental protection. Examples of Green project include:
Digital Green: It is an initiative that uses technology to improve agricultural practices and support
rural development. By creating and sharing digital videos, it provides farmers with valuable information
and training on best practices, new techniques, and sustainable methods. The project helps farmers
increase productivity and income while promoting environmental sustainability. Through a network of
local volunteers and technology, Digital Green bridges the gap between farmers and experts, enhancing
agricultural knowledge and community growth.
Swachh Cooperative: Solid Waste Management by ‘Swachh Cooperative’ is an initiative aimed at improving
waste management practices in communities. The cooperative focuses on collecting, sorting, and recycling
solid waste to reduce environmental impact. They work to educate the community about proper waste
disposal and the benefits of recycling. By organising waste collection and promoting sustainable practices,
the Swachh Cooperative helps to keep the environment clean and supports the development of a healthier,
more organised community.
Bio-toilet by Green Solution Foundation: The GSF has introduced a bio-toilet system to improve
sanitation in villages and slums lacking sewage systems. Funded by users or donors, these bio-toilets are
supported by GSF, which also provides training to local people on how to use and maintain them, creating
job and business opportunities. The core of this eco-friendly toilet is a bio-digester tank that uses aerobic
bacteria to convert human waste into clean, environmentally safe water. This water can be used for flushing
or irrigation.
