CLEAN & GREEN MUMBAI
Concerned with the alarming rise in pollution levels, lack of cleanliness and the rapid disappearance of trees and open spaces in the city, AGNI collaborated with college and school students and the Times of India Group to take up Cleaning and Greening Mumbai.
The project began with a two-day workshop at Lonavala in November 2000, involving 150 College students and programme officers besides AGNI volunteers. Detailed plans and commitment schedules were prepared. A “Clean and Green Mumbai” week (18th - 24th Jan 2001) was conceived at the workshop and launched at a mass meeting in Shanmukhananda Hall. Volunteer groups were set up in 11 Wards to spread awareness during the first phase of the project. The second phase was an exercise in cleaning, greening and vermi-composting in and around Mumbai.
