During the Special Campaign 3.0, the following best practices were taken up :-

1.     My Plant, My LiFE | Department took up an initiative to sensitize officers and staff members to promote “climate positive individual action” in offices by encouraging them to keep potted indoor plants in work spaces and to tend and nurture them on a daily basis. Each such “climate positive individual action” addresses issues in the global campaign of “LiFE” led by Prime Minister Shri Modi. Under the initiative, employees took keen interest to keep at least one plant at their desk and nurture them on their own.

“My Plant, My Life “ campaign has a bigger objective – it  reinforces  in all officers and employees, the mutual dependence and concern for each other.  That our lives are dependent on the environment and the environment is dependent on human lives.
