We were overwhelmed by the memories of Dr. Kalam and we will surely try to carry forward his legacy.
The programme has been concluded with the inspirational quote by Dr. KJS Anand, Executive Director IMS, “This was an initiative taken by IMS Noida to stop deforestation happening all across the country, mainly in Delhi NCR region. As we know trees play a vital role in our life. Trees are one of the ways of offsetting our carbon emissions. So, trees are the basic need of urban as well as rural cities. The main objective behind the programme was to teach our younger generation that our environment is incomplete without trees. We need to pay an attention towards our environment because global warming is one of the major giant spreading rapidly in the absence of Trees.”
“Someone can sit in the shade today because….someone planted a tree a long time back” adds Dr. Datta while concluding her speech.”
