This World Environment Day, the Himalayas witnessed communities coming together with one shared mission — to beat plastic pollution and protect the mountains we call home.
Together, over 1.6 tons of waste was collected from fragile mountain ecosystems.
From Kazaa, Shimla, Kedarnath, Kinnaur, Harshil, Kheer Ganga, Bijli Mahadev to Khoksar, Panchayats, Mahila Mandals, youth groups, local administration, Hotel Associations, Forest and Irrigation Departments, volunteers, local residents along with Healing Himalayas team joined hands for large-scale cleanup drives.
Every piece of waste removed is a step toward cleaner rivers, healthier forests, safer wildlife habitats, and more responsible tourism.
The Himalayas protect us every day. It is our responsibility to protect them back. 💚
