GCP: Campus in Spotlight The Mann School – A Platinum-Rated Green Campus The Mann School stands out as a model for environmental responsibility, holding a platinum rating under the Green Campus Program. The school integrates sustainability into all aspects of campus life, from water and energy conservation to waste and air quality management. Key initiatives include rainwater harvesting, drip irrigation, and swimming pool water recycling. Energy is conserved through solar panels, LED lighting, and natural ventilation in buildings, particularly the eco-conscious Girl’s Hostel. The campus is rich in biodiversity, with a mini forest, orchard, and regular tree plantation drives. Boarding students plant saplings on their birthdays—building a personal connection to nature. The school has banned single-use plastic and manages waste via composting, paper mache from waste paper, and segregation with color-coded bins.

Air pollution is addressed through the use of CNG buses, smokeless chulhas, and a carpooling policy for staff. These holistic efforts not only make The Mann School environmentally sustainable but also nurture a generation of climate-conscious students. BLOGS WHEN DISASTERS ARE NO LONGER NATURAL: INDIA’S CLIMATE REALITY FROM THE FRONTLINES OF COMMUNITY RESPONSE There was a time when floods, heatwaves, droughts, and storms were spoken of as isolated emergencies - events that arrived, disrupted life, and passed. Today, that understanding is no longer enough. Across India, disasters are becoming more frequent, more intense, and far less predictable. What we are witnessing on the ground is not merely a disaster management challenge; it is the unmistakable face of climate change unfolding in communities every single day.

GREEN CAMPUS PROGRAMME MAHARASHTRA Celebrating Sustainability, the Way It Should Be At New English School, Kusumbi in Maharashtra's Sahyadri hills, sustainability was celebrated not through grand events but through meaningful action. After earning the prestigious Gold Green Campus Certification under The Climate Project Foundation's Green Campus Programme, the school chose to hold its celebration in the village's Kalubai temple, bringing together students, teachers, parents, the Panchayat, and the local community. The event reflected the very values the programme promotes, students welcomed guests with handmade bouquets, served homemade refreshments on paper plates, and managed the entire ceremony themselves under the guidance of their teachers. With no plastic, no extravagance, and every decision rooted in sustainability, the celebration became a powerful reminder that the true spirit of climate action lies in living our values, not just talking about them.
