Green environment and Ensuring environmental sustainability, ecological balance, protection of Agric land, animal welfare, agro forestry, conservation of natural resources and Maintaining quality of soil, air and water including contribution .The project envisages to protect Our river banks at our Village by enriching the suitable bio-diversity while achieving the some of the Sustainable Development Goals under Poverty, Hunger, Health and Climate change.
The target area is adjacent to the village of Kanji. Being adjacent to the people there are multiple number of breaches on the banks of the river. Through these breaches the plastic wastes are deposited in the river bed and when flood comes all the plastic wastes are taken to the sea ( Bay of Bengal) as there is no major reservoir in the downstream. By this the sea is polluted with plastic and temperature caused by plastic waste. The reproductive quality of marine species is adversely .
Removal of invasive species "juliflora prosopis" from the targeted river banks.Strengthening of banks by soil erosion controlling Vettiver species (Chrysopogon zizanioides) and Arugambul (Cynodon dactylon) and to control the breaches those bring the plastic ( both meso and micro) wastes to the river bed. The next line of species will be the bamboo trees. The variety of bamboo species are Calamus tenuis, Calamus leptesadix and Calamus floribundus. These varieties of species can be plant.
1) Generation of social responsibility among general public. 2) Provision of environment education to enable the students to act upon environment enrichment. 3) Increase in atmosphere and soil moisture due to removal of invasive species. 4) Protection from soil erosion on the banks of river due to plantation of 'Vettiver'. 5) Reduction of meso / micro plastics being deposited in the river and thereby in the sea due to protection provided by Vettiver plants.
