What is Energy Swaraj Clubs?
We all are the users of energy and we all have contributed to climate change. In order to mitigate climate change, which has become a serious global problem, we all must act together. We need a public movement to encourage mass adoption of the Energy Swaraj - the energy generated and consumed locally. For Energy Swaraj to become a public movement, people at large must start taking part in appropriately generating and consuming their own energy, without waiting for policies or subsides.
Start your own Energy Swaraj Club
Technology alone cannot create a better world, people of integrity and consciousness of others and our environment can. The Energy Swaraj Clubs can be established in a school, college, housing society, NGOs, companies, anywhere where people can meet frequently, discuss and promote the establishment of Energy Swaraj.
