Namami Tate Is a campaign brought to you by the Ministry of Earth Sciences in collaboration with the Government of India. This campaign is part of the Government of India’s 75 week celebration of Azadi ka Amrit Mohotsav. Through Namami Tate, we are targeting cleaning of some of the dirtiest beaches of India with the help of the Government as well as fellow citizens. Beaches play a fundamental role in maintaining the health of the oceans and also provide habitat to a number of marine species.

However, last year, a group of researchers from ICAR-Central Institute of Fisheries Education (CIFE) found that the north-east Arabian Sea, just off Mumbai, contained an estimated 379 MT of marine debris of which plastics contributed to 40.6% of the total by weight. A major portion of this debris washes up on the beaches creating health, environmental, economic as well as social hazards. The fast-paced growth of the tourism sector combined with the lack of awareness on the part of citizens about the damaging impact of pollution is one of the leading causes of the abysmal condition of our beaches. The Namami Tate campaign aims to clean these beaches and protect our precious marine biodiversity.

The Ministry of Earth Sciences invites suggestions from the citizens of India about the innovative ways in which we can conduct this beach cleaning activity. We value your suggestions which would be instrumental in implementing this campaign.

The best entries from the citizens will be identified by the Ministry and will be featured on the MyGov page.

The last date to receive suggestions is 15th August 2022.

cleaning beaches is secondary. how will u plan and gather people and make sure they come to the place on time accordingly. I believe the planning process needs huge planning process with a youth committee . I have a lot of ideas if you can help engage in this discussion.

The ongoing streamflow depletion has raised awareness of the importance of water demand management among the water authorities, and as a result, the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (MDCR) launched a project, funded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), in an attempt to identify and pilot strategies that could help restore instream flows to the Ipswich River.The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of four water conservation pilot strategies on water use. As is inherent to many small-scale pilots, the datasets for these demonstration projects tend to be small, variable, and exhibit nonnormal distributions.  Article on Water conservation Cadet Mehakdeep Kaur 2Pb Naval Unit Khalsa College Amritsar

India enjoys a coastline of approximately 7000 kms including Andaman and Nicobar islands. We have people to manage the security and guard the coastal activity. But no people to clean, operate and maintain the coastline except in some beaches which are famous tourist attractions. Some beaches are also classified as Blue Flag beaches which are cleaned and maintained well. We should extend this concept of cleaning and maintaining well all/most of the beaches/coastline. Employment in permanent and or temporary form can be created separately for this category/activity if exclusively trained people are required for the same. Revenue generated from the tourists/domestic activities can used for the developmental activities and also the salary of the staff itself. Self sustaining activities can be created on long term basis.

Cleaning the beach also improves the coastal and ocean ecosystem by ensuring that none of the trash kills marine life or is toxic enough to disrupt the aquatic life cycle.

5. We produce around 350 million tons of plastic each year and half of it is disposable. ‘Zero waste’ or ‘zero plastic waste’ movements are springing up around the world to tackle this issue. If each of us become responsibility holder to prevent plastic littering, we can help stop the world’s preventable plastic problem from getting worse.
