The Green Walk, jointly organised by Indian Development Foundation and
Standard Chartered Bank, was held from Marina Beach Light House to Labour Statue at 6.30 a.m Saturday morning.
Around 200 enthusiastic volunteers, social ambassadors and champions began lining up for the Green Walk carrying placards displaying environment protection messages early Saturday.
Indian Development Foundation (IDF) together with Standard Chartered Bank have been organising Environment related awareness programmes and clean-up campaigns across 10 major cities in India, starting World Environment Day.
The need of the hour is to create wide-spread awareness about various environmental issues we are facing today. There are simple yet effective means through which each one of us can contribute towards change, the organizers expressed. Social Ambassadors from Indian Development Foundation and Social Champions from Standard Chartered helped in bringing a social consciousness and awakening for the morning walkers and joggers.

It is our responsibility to protect nature, plant more trees in our neighbourhood, keep our surroundings clean and conserve water. Imagine a situation when we don't have sufficient oxygen to breathe! Let's plant a tree on our birthday. We need to nurture our nature.
