Global Bengal Initiatives is an organisation that works to uplift the marginalized who live in and around the East Kolkata wetlands. In association with the Sardar Bhery Farms and Fisheries, GBI will pledge to plant one lakh trees in the wetlands. This is part of the ‘Earth Conscious’ movement that aims to reduce the ill effects of climate change on the tribals – women, children and fishermen – that inhabit the area.
The pledge will be taken at Sardar Bhery in Mahishbatan area of the wetlands at Salt Lake on November 24 at 12 noon in the august presence of Shri Sujit Bose, Shri Sitaram Sharma, Shri Rajesh Chirimar, Smt Karuna Singh, Smt Sonal Mandal and others.
