The potential impact on children has been a critical missing element from the debate about climate change world over. It is very important to rapidly develop a greater understanding of the impact of climate change and environmental concerns on children and take appropriate measures to protect them from its consequences.

Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev says “There is a strong case for engaging children as actors in the climate change agenda, rather than treating them as passive observers or victims. Small realizable campaign like planting of saplings will go a long way in strengthening children role in protecting not only the environment but also their future.” Sadhguru will be in city to launch and support a green cover initiative by 1000’s of students. He will also give a short discourse on the importance of environment protection at the school and about the various Initiatives School and Children can champion in addition to the Green Cover Initiative.
