ABOUT THE PROJECT

It is not a hidden fact that today India is disappearing behind smog and chaos of increasing population. The Loss in green cover and increased concretisation in urban areas has led to cities becoming ‘urban heat islands’, which pose significant threats to not just human populations but also contribute to climate change. India is highly vulnerable to climate breakdown and forests are an integral element towards mitigating such crises. BharatCares has stepped into practicing Miyawaki plantation to revolutionize the urban cities with better environment, amplifying the green area.

OUR INTERVENTION

The Miyawaki technique includes a six-step process that starts with surveying the soil to assess physical texture, organic carbon, soil pH and more. Then a survey of native species and biomass is done by visiting and collecting relevant data from the nearest natural forest in the region. After which, native saplings are procured and planted in layers, as per Miyawaki guidelines. Finally, the site is monitored and maintained for a period of 2 to 3 years, after which the sites become self-sustainable. BharatCares team carefully ventures the Miyawaki method in to furnishing the Indian Cities with green and sustainable environment.
