Mangaluru, Jun 6: In observance of World Environment Day, the NCC cadets of Mount Carmel Central School undertook a meaningful tree-planting drive on June 5. A total of 25 JD and 12 JW cadets actively participated in the initiative.

Armed with basic farming tools such as hoes and ploughs, the cadets prepared the soil with commitment and care. Each cadet planted a sapling of Papaya, Mango, Cashew, Jackfruit or Jamun, and ensured it was properly watered. The saplings were thoughtfully planted across the school campus and in nearby areas wherever suitable soil was available.

The spirit of teamwork and enthusiasm was evident throughout the activity. The cadets took pride in knowing their green efforts would contribute to a healthier planet for future generations. This eco-friendly initiative served not only as a contribution to environmental sustainability but also as an awareness drive against deforestation and its adverse effects.

With a strong message that ‘for every tree cut down, ten more should be planted,’ the cadets reinforced their commitment as responsible citizens and environmental stewards.

The event concluded leaving the cadets with a deep sense of pride and fulfillment for having taken a small yet impactful step toward a greener tomorrow.
