India started the LiFE Global Movement on World Environment Day, June 5, 2022, to inspire researchers, start-ups, and academics to find scientific solutions to the environmental crisis.

Mission LiFE follows the Pro Planet People (P3) concept, promoting a lifestyle of, for, and by the planet. It supports a circular economy that balances development, economic growth, and sustainability through reduce, reuse, and recycle. The goal makes everyone a steward of the environment, which means they are responsible for taking care of it and keeping it safe. It aims to change the way we all think about sustainability by encouraging people to do things that are good for the environment, making it easier for businesses and markets to respond quickly to changes in demand, and getting government and business policies to support sustainable consumption and production.

The fight against climate change requires more than just making policies. It also needs help from people, families, and communities to protect the environment and the planet and to help each other during climate-related disasters and extreme weather calamities. India also has the chance to lead the way into a new age of sustainability in line with its history, culture, and traditions now that it is in charge of the G20.This way every one of us contributes a bit to save our environment.

The Group of Twenty (G20) is the premier forum for international economic cooperation. It’s playing an important role in shaping and strengthening global architecture and governance on all major international economic issues. India is on a   mission   to   bring   about   a   shared   global   future   for   all   through the Amrit Kaal initiative with a focus on the Lifestyle for the Environment (LiFE) Movement which aims to promote environmentally-conscious practices and a sustainable way of living.

Nature is God’s most beautiful creation. It felicitates the growth, development and nourishment of all its creatures. Under the Prakriti club, a “Tree Plantation Drive –Power of nature” was organized in Asian Business School on Thursday, 08th June 2023. The campaign’s main aim was to direct minds in constructive activities with the positive outcome through the facilitation of contributing to the society and to bring awareness among people about keeping the environment clean and safe from pollution. For this purpose, we all should plant more trees to purify the air and make the earth green. The program started at 11.00 am.

The teaching and non- teaching staff brought various sapling and participated in the drive enthusiastically and helped each other in planting the saplings. All the saplings were planted in the college ground by Dean, Faculty and non-teaching staff. Some of the faculties also shared their experiences and shared their joy with others. This really helped to realise the importance of environment and created a sense of responsibility amongst us all.

Faculties later exchanged the planters, they brought for one another and taken oath to plant more saplings for better future of the coming generations.
Such little steps taken together by us will surely help in fostering strong mental and social health amongst people so that they connect with their peers, their elders, their community and their environment.
