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.

Sir, Geotextile tubes are available in China for water purification. Please consider using Coir products for such products in India too. This can easily be used in Urban slums areas. This can be packed with appropriate chemicals for a better purification. The chemicals can be recharged as and when necessary. Once it's life is expired, it must be a soil conditioner and hence eco friendly.

Everyone can contribute their share by a) Reducing wastage of water and electricity b) Disposing e-waste into appropriate e-waste collection centres. c) Reuse old clothes for example, by making hand kerchiefs Or scarfs out of veils, which would make some savings or donate clothes in good condition to the poor at proper donation centres. d) Make use of renewable natural resources, like solar panels.
