How do we do this?

iamgurgaon has initiated a drive, wherein we intend planting a million trees across various locations in Gurgaon!

Why do it?

The benefits to Gurgaon are huge -

the numbers, staggering:

1. A million trees planted over 3,500 acres would sequester 8,750 MT of CO2 annually!

2. A hundred mature trees intercept 378,000 litres of rainwater/year. A million trees would intercept 3.7 billion litres of rainwater per annum!

3. One million trees will provide enough oxygen for 2 million people, the entire population of Gurgaon.

Why do it?

Other than listing the benefits of tree plantation (a book can be written about it), we would transform the urbanscape and create lungs across the city…

so that the younger generation can breathe easy!!!

Will they survive?

Sustainability is the key to this operation. We have identified locations that can be secured, monitored and fed with recycled water. The trees will be cared and nurtured for 3 years.
