Indore Climate Mission
An initiative aims to combat climate change through a dual approach of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting energy conservation in the cleanest city of India, Indore . By raising awareness and fostering sustainable practices across the city, the Indore Climate Mission (ICM) seeks to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change and safeguard the environment for future generations.
Energy Literacy
Educating 300,000 to 500,000 citizens on the link between energy consumption and carbon emissions, promoting awareness on the environmental impact of fossil fuel use.
Reduce Electricity Consumption
Encouraging the adoption of sustainable habits such as reducing electricity and material use in daily life, aiming for a 7-10% reduction in city-wide electricity consumption.
Impacting Behavioral Change
7 Days - 7 Habits engaging multiple sectors, including educational institutions, businesses, government offices, and households, to participate actively in the mission, creating a climate-conscious community that prioritizes sustainability.
Climate has changed!
Climate change is not just a buzzword; it's a stark reality affecting our world. Relentless use of fossil fuels has caused a surge in greenhouse gasses and global warming, putting our planet under immense stress.
Climate experts have issued a warning to limit global warming to 1.5°C, and we have just 5 to 6 years to make a significant difference or face irreversible climate change impacts.
The urgency to address climate change has never been more pressing. The evidence is glaring: extreme floods, forest fires, and heat waves are on the rise, with the frequency of these events skyrocketing by over 450% compared to just a few decades ago. The consequences are devastating, affecting nearly 200 million people annually and resulting in significant loss of life and financial resources, amounting to hundreds of billions of dollars each year.
Awareness and Action for Climate Correction
To mitigate climate change, Energy Swaraj Foundation strives to create a public movement by creating awareness among the masses and engaging them in climate corrective actions.
5 Awareness Activities
Spreading awareness among users of energy to motivate and transform them from ‘careless’ to ‘cautious’ use of energy.
5 Action Activities
Engaging users of energy to take climate corrective actions and switch to renewable energy in an appropriate and immediate manner
Join us for the Public Movement
Every one is the user of Energy and hence everybody should take action to reduce its impact on Environment.
