Important or interesting events that took place at Delhi-NCR schools
Climate Giri
Eco Club members of Ramjas School, RK Puram, took part in a protest at Jantar Mantar called ClimateGiri.
The protest was organised by an NGO, Nineismine. This campaign drew inspiration from Greta Thunberg, a 16-year-old Swedish Girl, climate-activist and Nobel Peace prize nominee. Thunberg drew attention towards deteriorating climatic conditions all over the world. Friday was chosen as the day of the campaign based on the event Fridays for Future. Students of the school presented a dance on Hawa Badlo, Soch Badlo and displayed posters on climate change. Several activities such as skits, dances and poem recitation motivated people to help combat the Climate Emergency. Students raised slogans such as “What do we want? Climate emergency “, ”When do we want it? Now, because there is no Earth B.”
In the end there was a team building activity using a parachute which signified pulling the bad air cover away from the Mother Earth. It can only be possible if we work together. The event was a grand success and created awareness among the masses about the climate emergency.

Then Siddarth Dahiya planted two saplings in the presence of the principal who appreciated their efforts. Other students too promised to plant a tree on their birthdays.
