This Earth We walk on – Sadhguru – Tamil

Welcome to Project GreenHands Throughout the world dire warnings are being issued about the effects of human activity on the natural environment. Communities on every continent are experiencing the devastation of declining water quality, soil degradation, climate change and biodiversity loss. Project Greenhands (PGH), a grassroots ecological initiative established by Isha Foundation in Tamil Nadu, India, has grown out of deep concern for the global effects of deforestation and land degradation, and in particular, for the rapidly changing ecology of Tamil Nadu. Drawing extensively on community involvement and large scale volunteer participation, the Project aims to plant 114 million trees state-wide – providing an additional 10% to the existing level of green cover in Tamil Nadu. Since its inception in 2004, PGH has successfully overseen the planting of more than 5 million trees by over one million people. PGH is an action-driven organization that is committed to developing a hands-on approach that can be easily replicated in rural communities worldwide. Through its activities it aims to inspire people around the world to appreciate the true value of trees and the vital role that they play within human environments. http://projectgreenhands.org/ http://www.ishafoundation.org/ http://www.powertocreate.org/
