Climate Innovations News

If the Green Revolution rode on the strength of chemicals derived mainly from fossil fuels, now there is a shift in the thinking on how agriculture is being done in India, with a thrust on growing indigenous crop varieties and following natural farming practices. In the industrial sector, with initiatives such as ‘Make in India’, there has been growth and innovation in the medium and small enterprises (MSME) sector. In both these sectors, individuals, collectives and communities have been innovating and finding ways of working in tune with nature, with minimum damage to the environment and climate. With so much knowledge being generated in disparate fields, we would like to use effective storytelling as means to bring the knowledge and innovations to the larger public.
