We invite you to participate in PROJECT GREEN IDEAS, which is a venture of the Environment department of Maharashtra State and OASIS is the executing agency. The time frame of the project is August 2011 to January 2012.

Once upon a time there were seven islands situated on the West Coast of the beautiful country of India. Over time these seven islands were reclaimed into one land mass, and Mumbai the financial capital of India was born. 

A city is born but the birds and trees are gone…

TITLE OF PROJECT GREEN IDEA: Flora and Fauna in Mumbai

IMPLEMENTATION REGION IN THE STATE: Urban Mumbai city, any lane adjacent to the participant

OBJECTIVE: The sparrows, vultures, feathered friends and native trees are vanishing from Mumbai. Through this project, OASIS wants to drive home to the participants the ‘native flora and fauna’ existent in Mumbai and to survey the kind of flora and fauna that existed in the adjacent lane and the species that have witnessed the vanishing of the same. Community participation is a must to protect our ecological treasures.

TYPE OF PROGRAMME: Awareness & Action Programme to “Adopt your lane”.

INNOVATION: The idea is unique because it involves students in the whole project right from research to action and it will inculcate sense of ownership and responsibility to retain the natural wealth of Mumbai along with its becoming a world class city. 

We encourage you to:
1. Be aware of the problem
2. Make others aware of the problem
3. Conduct mini research surveys to help find a solution
4. Be the solution
5. Spread the message to others to do their bit too
