About [Edit]

Dear Friends,
Every day people make decisions – what house to buy, what kind of job to apply for what kind of garden to plant, whether to have children, where to go on holiday, what kind of bank account to open, what business opportunities to seize. Climate change is becoming an increasingly important factor in more and more of these decisions, from both the ethical perspective of engaging in actions which contribute to a crisis that could disrupt or end the lives of millions, and the practical perspective of preparing for life in a world where the climate system is no longer stable. Climate change is an emergent property of complex ecological and environmental systems, which in turn are influenced by complex human systems, including cultural, social, economic and political systems. The level of awareness of climate change therefore needs to reflect that complexity and be multi-dimensional and multifaceted, rather than focusing only single variables such as carbon dioxide emissions. Above all, climate change awareness needs to be the kind of practical awareness which can
help learners deal with uncertainty and make decisions that are aligned both with the most reliable available information and their own ethical values.
We are interested in launching a Climate action awareness campaign at INDORE ?
It would be a great help from your side if, you could provide funding assistance to our proposed objectives for Climate action awareness campaign for Community implementation also if, you can provide us some necessary guidelines along with some specified project application formats if ,needed. So, as to enable us to submit a detailed project proposal with all relevant documents from our end.
Kindly attend our request at the earliest.
With regards,
Yours Thankful,
