🌱 About Green Campus Initiative
Our college is committed to environmental sustainability and eco-friendly campus development. Various green practices have been adopted to reduce carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, and promote environmental awareness among students and staff.
1️⃣ Green Campus Committee
The college has constituted a Green Campus Committee to monitor and implement environmental initiatives on campus.
Key Responsibilities:
Planning eco-friendly activities
Monitoring energy and water usage
Conducting plantation drives
Promoting environmental awareness programs
Coordinating sustainability audits
2️⃣ Rain Water Harvesting System
The campus has an operational Rain Water Harvesting System to conserve water and recharge groundwater levels.
Benefits:
Reduces water wastage
Recharges groundwater
Supports sustainable water management
Reduces dependency on external water supply
3️⃣ Waste Segregation Practice
Status: ❌ Not Implemented Yet
Currently, a structured waste segregation system is not implemented. The college plans to introduce:
Separate bins for dry & wet waste
