Good old Bangalore was well known for its tree-lined avenues, expansive parks, lakes, and a mild climate that earned it the reputation of a peaceful “Pensioners’ Paradise”
In the name of progress, we sacrificed our city’s lungs. Concrete Structures rose way above the trees, while trees were felled...the result, our air grew thinner and Now, to breathe easy again, we must give Bengaluru its lungs back...by planting fast growing bamboo for Improving the O₂ and decreasing CO₂. Every tree planted is a step toward cleaner air, calmer lungs, and a Bengaluru that can breathe again
Let's Remove 250 Thousand Tonnes Of CO₂ Annually And Reduce PM2.5 In Namma Bengaluru
“Namma Swasa” Initiative is The Responsibility Of Everyone of us living and breathing this air to participate in the reclaiming and restoration of Bengaluru’s lungs
Bengaluru’s Air Quality Index keeps slipping between Moderate, Poor, and Unhealthy…a daily reminder that the air we breathe is no longer guaranteed to be safe. This isn’t a temporary dip, it’s a warning sign that our city’s lungs are under constant strain, and every breath is paying the price
Join us To plant and support our ‘Namma Swasa’ initiative to extend the comfort of clean air beyond air-conditioned workplaces, to the streets, homes, and to the future of Bengaluru and our Air.
Plant Right To Breathe Right
Cleaner air for our children today, safer lungs for our elders tomorrow…B’coz a city that protects its weakest breathes stronger for generations.
Alarming Fact To Note… Air Pollution In Bengaluru To Go up By 74% by 2030
A study by Urbanemissions dot info along with researchers from the Center for Study of Science, Technology & Policy [CSTEP], the estimated PM10 [that is, particulate matter of less than 10 microns in size] pollution may increase by a mind-boggling 74% by 2030, led primarily by vehicle exhaust, construction and on-road dust and related air pollution.
Bamboo grows at a fast pace, reaching full height in months, not years. Its rapid growth lets it absorb large amounts of CO₂ and release high levels of O₂ through dense, year-round foliage. Fast to grow, fast to clean the air, and quick to help a city breathe again.
Our air pollution is the price of inaction… Now the air is thin and choking
Take a step forward, let’s plant in Bengaluru, let’s breathe Better tomorrow
No speeches. No shortcuts, just us taking responsibility…rooted in the ground
Namma Swasa
