India is one of the leaders in sustainable development and clean energy. With the Hon PM Narendra Modi-led government’s reform-oriented, environment-friendly policies, the country has time & again shown that sound environmental policies can pave the way to a sound economy.

At the UN Climate Change Conference COP26 in 2021, PM Shri Narendra Modi announced the ‘LiFE’, a mission to bring individual behavioural change at the forefront of the global climate action narrative. LIFE or Lifestyle for Environment along with the ‘Pro Planet People’ movement, aims to strengthen the efforts to overcome climate change.

LiFE will replace the prevailing 'use-and-throw’ thinking with an environmentally conscious lifestyle. The Mission is to create a global community of ‘Pro-Planet People’ (P3), who with their shared commitment will adopt and promote environmentally friendly lifestyles.

Individual Efforts Are Key to Climate Commitment

India's traditional knowledge strongly positions it to lead the narrative of addressing climate change. Like many other mass movements, LiFE aims to inspire climate action based on the mantra of ‘Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas’.

MyGov invites you to share your ideas and suggestions on how to adapt to an environmentally conscious lifestyle.

1. Reduce
2. Reuse
3. Recycle
4. Renewable
5. Recover
6. Re-design
7. Re-manufacture

Few examples for the above:
Reduce - Electricity, Fuel Usage
Reuse - Old Clothes, Electronics, Building materials, furniture
Recycle - Plastic, newspapers, cartons, boxes
Renewable - Solar, Wind, Hydro, Tidal, Geothermal & Biomass
Recover - Forests, rivers, soil, mountains, wildlife
Redesign - Green buildings
Remanufacture - E-waste for new purposes

Our civilisational values have taught us the importance of living in harmony with nature. Today, let’s come together to protect our environment & take forward Mission LiFE - Lifestyle for Environment.

Government can plan to give free saplings for individuals and non profit organisations through Forest Department, Horticulture Department and Corporations. If free tree saplings are distributed throughout India based on the soil and water condition it will encourage many people to start Plant A Sapling initiative and bring greenery in many areas. A separate website containing information about all the trees and it's spices state wise and produce more saplings through Government Horticulture Department and give it freely to public. A complete data of where one can get the free saplings and the contact number and address should be given. I humbly request our Honorable Prime Minister and Ministry of Forest Department to kindly consider this suggestion and take steps to distribute free saplings through the India 🇮🇳 and celebrate Ajadhi Ka Amruth Mahotsav by developing Greenery across India. Schools and Colleges can take this as a project and get Certificate.

Dear Modi ji I think sharing a trend of( afforestation like plantation of small plants and displacing trees instead cutting them for projects ) in all the social media platforms like YouTube, Instagram , Facebook and moj etc. As the Youth follows these apps and their trending section the most , i think this will be the most effective way for the improvement of our environment. thank you

Building an environmentally sustainable future can be achieved upto 40% by renewable energy resources and rest 50% can be achieved by hydrogen fuel using as an alternative fuel. So, please start installing the local hydrogen fuel generation and distribution plant mainly in big cities as a prototype and see the pros and cons of it and according enhance the technology for the sustainable future.

Dear Modi ji The world’s roads are clogged with vehicles, most of them burning diesel or petrol. Walking or riding a bike instead of driving will reduce greenhouse gas emissions – and help your health and fitness. For longer distances, consider taking a train or bus. And carpool whenever possible. Much of our electricity and heat are powered by coal, oil, and gas. Use less energy by lowering your heating and cooling, switching to LED light bulbs and energy-efficient electric appliances, Eating more vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds, and less meat and dairy, can significantly lower your environmental impact

29. Reducing vehicle carbon air emission, as individual responsible to make vehicles pollution free and make better air. In flights we are aware of carbon emission. But normal ground travellers daily unconscious they are emitting pollution. It can be less. But daily if we do it is harm to environment. So awareness and maintenance of vehicles are mandatory. Especially auto, two wheeler, some cars, some lorry, some busses etc. Need to take some action which will help all. If the machine gives dark air some fine can be put. So that every one can use good air by reducing carbonated air.Especially in cities it is more. 30. I have came across one interesting info, from old electronic copper sone people are doing jewels kind art works. Similar innovative ways can try to find out from old electronic items apart from reusable property.

27. Cows are assets. It's waste also can be utilised many ways. May be that's why sanathana dharma praying cow. Not sure. Bio gases, natural fertilizers etc can be created. Many are there. So we have to protect cows. We have to see other animal values as welll and try to protect for our eco system. 28. Small plantation in balcony, upstairs, open areas also make environment cool. Useful plants like aloe vera, karpoora Valli, and holy basil also planted. Holy basil helps in ozone layer protection or creation. We have to explore such plants and possible places we can plant

25. In young age, we used to hear old papers can be grinded and make a paste and make pot kind. I think similar videos available in internet. We can check those utilities. 26. Forests has to be protected. We have to grow new one. In Industrial area also, if possible plantation we need to keep. Similarly water sources can be saved by removing unwanted plants like ( karuvelamul chedi or plant etc) which will absorb more water and dry the water. Need to plant more water holding plants. Similarly when I used to travel tamilnadu places, I used to think more empty areas are there. Probably we can convert those places to useful plantation, vegetation etc. I believe this is the case in all states, I mean in India we have more spaces which we didn't use anything I think. Or we can see whether this can make purposeful or go green ways plantations etc. Need to think and take it.
