  1. ABOUT THE CLIMATE REALITY PROJECT Founded and chaired by former US Vice President and Nobel Laureate Al Gore, The Climate Reality Project is dedicated to catalyzing a global solution to the climate crisis by making urgent action a necessity across every level of society. Today, climate change is standing in the way of a healthy tomorrow for all of us. But we know that practical solutions are right in front of us. We can create a healthy, sustainable, and prosperous future by making a planet-wide shift from dirty fossil fuels to clean, reliable, and affordable renewable energy. At Climate Reality, we combine digital media initiatives, global organizing events, and peerto-peer outreach programs to share this good news with citizens everywhere and build overwhelming popular support for policies that accelerate the global transition to a clean energy economy.

  2. Effects of Climate Change Climate change is real and it’s happening right now! Sea levels are rising and oceans are getting warmer. Intense droughts threaten crops, wildlife, freshwater supplies and the intense heat waves taking lives all around the globe, the situation has never been this serious! Climate change poses a threat to every species on the earth and everything that a man has achieved over the centuries. But, It is not too late to avoid or “limit” some of the worst effects of global warming.

  3. How to Reduce the Climate Crisis? To address the crisis, we need to take some major actions which require us to adopt an eco-friendly and sustainable lifestyle. For e.g- we should reduce the amount of greenhouse gases entering our atmosphere by using less or non polluting vehicles and opt for carpooling whenever we can. We should also take immediate measures to stop water pollution which can be done by simply avoiding wasting water in showers or use buckets to bathe instead. There should also be strict policies that curb the act of throwing/dumping plastic in water bodies. All in all, we should take considerable actions to heal the current status and prevent any adverse future consequences. This must be done with immediate effect and we should be prepared for what's to follow.

  4. Make India a Better Place to Live - Mr. Krishan Kalra Mr. Krishan Kalra, an engineer by training, formerly Additional Secretary-General- FICCI and Trustee of the Climate Reality Project India further added, “We’re already witnessing detrimental consequences due to escalating heat levels, which is greatly affecting the mankind, plants, animals, and ecosystems. This, coupled with increasing population, is tremendously catering to global warming and other threatening issues, ultimately resulting in the death of huge masses in India. However, we’re hoping that the effective initiatives like the International Solar Alliance, Clean Ganga Mission to name a few, taken by the government will massively help in plummeting these ongoing problems. That’s how we can fight these hazardous impediments to make India a better place to live.”

  5. Trustee of the Project- Mr. Pradip Burman Mr. Pradip Burman, Chairman of Mobius Foundation and Trustee of the Climate Reality Project India, who was present at the gathering, emphasized how the climate issue is adversely affecting the health of people and endangering our future generations.

  6. Role of Climate Reality Project, India To address the crisis, we need to take some major actions which require us to adopt an eco-friendly and sustainable lifestyle. For e.g- we should reduce the amount of greenhouse gases entering our atmosphere by using less or non polluting vehicles and opt for carpooling whenever we can. We should also take immediate measures to stop water pollution which can be done by simply avoiding wasting water in showers or use buckets to bathe instead. There should also be strict policies that curb the act of throwing/dumping plastic in water bodies. All in all, we should take considerable actions to heal the current status and prevent any adverse future consequences. This must be done with immediate effect and we should be prepared for what's to follow.

  7. Need for The Climate Reality Project in India More than 900 teachers since then have taken part in various training workshops on 'climate change and sustainable development goals (with special focus on environmental goals)’ for a safer planet that has been organised in Maharashtra (covering the districts Satara, Sangli, Kolhapur) and Mumbai. We need non-profit organisations like The Climate Reality Project India that enlighten people and make them care about our one and only home: the Earth by conducting such important environmental events. Only by spreading awareness and educating the inhabitants can there be a planet that has healthy air, pure water, and other quality resources for consumption.

  8. ICSE 2019 - International Conference on Sustainability Education International Conference on Sustainability Education will provide a global platform to national and international dignitaries to discuss the need of incorporation of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), Climate Change Education (CCE) and Environmental Education (EE) in the current course curriculum. The program will bring experts, international leaders, practitioners, and educators around the globe who will not only share their knowledge but bring forth best practices already being carried around the Globe and in India. The first of its kind conference will be organized in New Delhi, India on 09-10 September, 2019.
