Mangaluru, Jul 10: Vanamahotsava or forest celebration is an annual tree-planting festival that takes place across the country, with thousands of trees being planted. The week of Vanamahotsava is observed from July 1 to 7, with the goal of raising awareness about forest protection and environmental preservation.

The National Service Scheme of St Aloysius College (Autonomous), here, celebrated ‘Vanamahotsava’ from July 1 to July 7. During this week the volunteers planted saplings in their properties, made notebooks out of the unused pages, made paper pens, cleaned their surroundings and made collages and posters based on Vanamahotsava and circulated on social media to create awareness regarding the importance of afforestation. Volunteers also shared their photos preparing wet waste composting at home.

On the seventh day of the Vanamahotsava week, a webinar on climate action was organised on the Zoom platform. Bindiya Shetty, coordinator of the Centre for Environmental Concern was the resource person. She brought to light the climatic changes and their effects and highlighted the effective methodologies one should follow in order to bring about a pollution-free, sustainable ecosystem. The volunteers actively participated in the activity and cleared their queries and concerns at the end of the session.

The session concluded with the NSS anthem. 60 volunteers took part in the webinar.
