Yesterday was #InternationalDayOfForests 🌳🌏🕊️
Why are our #Forests so integral to health, peace and survival?
Over 1.6 billion people depend on forests for food or fuel, and some 70 million people worldwide – including many Indigenous communities – call forests their home.
With so many people dependent on forests, the fate of our forests may determine our own fate as well.
Forests help prevent erosion and enrich and conserve soil.
Deforestation has serious consequences on the health of people directly dependent on forests, as well as those living in cities and towns, as it increases the risk of diseases crossing over from animals to humans. Meanwhile, time spent in forests has been shown to have a positive benefit on conditions including cardiovascular disease, respiratory concerns, diabetes and mental health.
Forests are home to over 80% of terrestrial biodiversity, including 80% of amphibians, 75% of birds and 68% of mammals. Deforestation of some tropical forests could lead to the loss of as many as 100 species a day.
It is no surprise that when we cut down or damage our forests, we release huge amounts of carbon emissions that contribute to the climate crisis.
About one-third of the world’s largest cities obtain a significant proportion of their drinking water from forested protected areas.
Our lives are deeply linked with forests.
You can help protect forests by pledging your support to an organisation or community that works to protect forests 🌳🙏🏻
I work with @wildlifetrustofindia @ifawglobal @unep @sanctuaryasia you can volunteer or help any of these organisations or one of your own choice.
Let’s pledge to protect forests for the sake of our health, security, peace and prosperity 🦋

Who’s forest is it Avyaan Azaad?
And he says, “Tiger” 🐯
Sums it all up. Everything we hope for. Everything we must stand for.
#PannaTigerReserve will forever be etched in our hearts as the first forest our little one experienced.
Thank you #2022. You were kind and generous 💚🌳🌏

Imagine a 68 year old person travelling by cycle from Mumbai to Dehradun covering 2300km within 39days? It takes passion and commitment, both of which @anilp_joshi has demonstrated throughout his life – A passion to bring about grassroots change and commitment to restore ecological balance.
I promised to meet him at the end of this #PragatiSePrakrutiPath Yatra in Dehradun and was overjoyed to keep my promise. By this time he had engaged with over 50,000 people on his journey, covered 7 states, 60 cities, 1000 villages with the intent to redirect our attention towards ecological/nature based solutions to improve lives, livelihood and climate.
During the time we spent together, he shared a powerful concept of GEP – Gross Environmental Product with me. If this index were to be adopted by every state in India it would lead to significant increase in #ClimateAction and address all 17 goals of sustainable development.
Watch the video and tell me whether you think that this is a powerful intervention. Please share your views in the comments. I look forward to hearing from you 💚🦋
Padma Bhushan Dr. Anil Prakash Joshi is an environmentalist and founder of Himalayan environmental studies and conservation organization (HESCO), Dehradun.

This #WorldWaterDay pledge to conserve water 💧
Fix that leaking tap – Even a small drip can waste 50 or more gallons of water a day.
Take short baths – make 1 bath last no longer than one song you can sing 😊
Turn the 🚰 off when brushing your teeth, soaping your hands or utensils and while shaving 🪒
Use the water from your RO filters to water plants 🪴 or clean your home by collecting the water 💧
Don’t throw waste into your toilet 🚽
Fit a water check metre in your tanks to avoid overflow and wastage
Remember over 2 billion people live without access to safe water. Every drop of water we save counts 🌏🙏🏻
