Honorable Chief Minister, government, respected guests and organizers of this prestigious event, I am here today to receive this award.
I am quite overwhelmed by this award presented to me by our government. I truly am thankful to God Almighty who made it possible for me to give something back to our community. I have been fond of climate protection, species protection and helping out nature from the ill activities conducted by us humans. I feel that we all must thrive to give something back to our environment. I am happy that I got an opportunity from my school, for they gave me a chance to prove myself via their eco club.
Hon’ble Chief Minister , Governor other distinguished guests and my dear
friends,
Its really a great pleasure for me to receive this NCG Award for coordinating the
activities of our school eco-club. This award is a fillip to all members of the club.
My interest in environment is mainly from my father who is a teacher and social
activist. My school authorities nurtured it to turn my ideas and desire into creative
action. So, I did not make the journey alone. My teachers, especially Sree Devi
teacher , teacher in charge of eco-club, my eco-club mates and my friends – all
were with me along the way. I feel proud to say that they are behind this award.
People today are concerned about environment and are aware of consequences of
environmental degradation. Hence, apart from organizing seminars, debates,
lectures on environmental issues in school, we conducted field visits to polluted
and degraded sites and took up cleanliness drives. The initiatives taken by our
school eco-club in distributing seeds and saplings for compulsory kitchen garden
was immensely successful as the residents there are earning their living through
this. Installing Bio-gas plants, making herbal garden, starting a seed bank,
maintaining vermin-composing pits, constructing water-harvesting structure in
school- all these done well with the coordination and cooperation of our eco club
members proved to be the best ways of conserving environment and retaining
ecological balance. To be brief, we believed more in practising than preaching. I
feel, our eco-club activities are like an exploratory journey. I would like to say
what our teachers, friends and our club feel- it is a realization of a life dream!
This award is a symbol of our path towards success as we feel the joy of not only
doing something in school, but also knowing that we are doing something good for
the environment and the world at the same time. The formation of eco-clubs in
schools through which the students can take action to improve their immediate
environment and propagation of such eco- club activites will certainly do a
mammoth task for the sustainable development . Let us join our hands together to
nurture the nature and to conserve it for our future and once again I want to say
how grateful I am to receive this award.
Thank you.
