What can a river tell us about the health of a city?
At the 8th International Conference on Sustainability Education, Ms. Sunita Narain, Director General, Centre for Science and Environment (CSE), drew attention to the Yamuna’s deteriorating ecological health, highlighting zero dissolved oxygen levels as a measure of the scale of the challenge.
Her observations point to a larger question: how do we translate environmental evidence into collective understanding and meaningful action? Sustainability education is central to this effort, connecting scientific knowledge with the awareness, critical thinking and responsibility needed to shape a more sustainable future.
