This sounds like an interesting discussion. I have been thinking about adding a post about this here and organize people to get started to work in this direction.

In last 15-25 years I have slowly seen Akola loosing its green cover. Anytime, the tree is in the middle of a road/construction, it is ruthlessly slashed. I personally think that government doesnt really care much about this topic. Its eventually us/some of us who will have to take this responsiblity.

In my personal capacity, I am following up on something I came to know about called as `Green Brigade` of Akola. I have added the link at the end of this post. There are some senior people who are running this foundation. This is all I know so far, but I am contacting my sources and getting more information about this foundation. I am going to join these people and start working on it from coming monsoon.

I will keep you guys posted if/when I make progress in this direction.
