 In a world teeming with life and natural wonders, our shared responsibility echoes through the rustling leaves and thriving ecosystems. Climate change is a global challenge and a shared responsibility. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has taken several proactive steps to address this, like reduction in emission intensity, enhancing the green cover. Welcome to the Genesis of Change, where a vision becomes action. The Green Credit Initiative. At its core, this initiative stands tall with a pivotal objective of encouraging voluntary plantation activities to increase forests and our green cover. Trees play a critical role for people and the planet. They nurture biodiversity, sustain our rivers and clean our air. This initiative embraces a diverse tapestry of stakeholders, individuals, local bodies, industries and government entities, uniting for a greener tomorrow. What sets the Green Credit Initiative apart? This initiative harnesses the power of collective action and provides an avenue to channelise the aspirations of people to take environmentally positive action. The initiative will encourage voluntary plantation activities across different land types, from degraded forests to wastelands, riverine areas. By building a comprehensive land inventory, the initiative provides opportunities for voluntary tree plantation activities and under corporate social responsibility obligations. The time to act is now. There are unique initiatives in different countries, which we can share to learn and replicate. We propose to gather these initiatives and success stories into a repository. The Global Green Credit Initiative. Join us in painting a greener, brighter future for generations to come.
