catch them young, if you want to mould them...

this is a famous saying in almost all the countries. that's the reason why corporates catch them young whether it is for TMX elmo or for cigratees or for placements, we are all caught young..

but cseindia is trying to catch people young for spreading green awareness via its green school program, a very crucial aspect for any kid if that kid is going to have a semblance of green in his/her life. sanctuaryasia has a similar program called kids for tigers.

it is great to see a school in the western ghats region at 2nd place. it is sad to see no schools from kerala in the list. hindu had a great article "green schools in greying world" by mr.krishna kumar, director ncert, india.

the following para's hits the nail on the wonderful article:
In sharp contrast to these green schools, which exemplify conscious parsimony in the use of natural resources, we now notice a growing number of wasteful schools, which flaunt air-conditioned classrooms and other symbols of an extravagant lifestyle.
Even as we proceed towards augmenting our access to nuclear energy in collaboration with the U.S., we are fast developing the mindset required to ignore environmental issues associated with nuclear energy.


gurukula botanical sanctuary has a program like this . their program is called school in forest to forest ecology
programs like cseindia's gsp, sanctuary asia's kids for tigers, gbs's programs like school in the forests are very vital so that the younger generation can atleast have a small angle into environment side amidst modern urban life of mobiles, laptops, huge tv's/fridges and of course pollution, traffic jams and undrinkable water.

some of the highlights of gbs are as follows:
1. biggest plant species of western ghats forests
2. biggest gene pool of endangered western ghats forests
3. around 3000 visitors visit every year with 80% being school children and all of them have free admission
4. several students and aspiring teachers do intern work.
5. they have rejunvated around 50 acres of western ghats forests and are workign with several forest department to make sure the national forests are in good health.
