Biodiversity is vital in the fight against climate change. Fortunately, we have proper laws to conserve our biodiversity. But unfortunately, these laws are widely ignored. Grassroute plans to raise public awareness on how to use these laws effectively and force the authorities not to ignore it. Based on these objectives, Grassroute organises a half-day workshop on Saturday, 21st May 2022 at Nayarambalam Panchayath Hall.
Chapter Two was more exciting than the One. All participants from three different colleges, really enjoyed it very much. All the participants have done the job under the leadership of four senior experienced farm workers.
The Computer Science students from Rajagiri college participated in the Pokkali Farming Workshop organized by Grassroute. The team includes 53 girls and 36 boys. Department heads, Associate Director and Assistant Director of the college were also present. Mr K.K. Reghuraj, Farm Superindent, KUFOS and mentor of Grassroute lead classes on Pokkali Farming.
It was this day Grassroute was waiting since its inception. The Biodiversity Workshop has been successfully done. The session was brief and informative. It gave a ray of light on BDA and how it designed to protect our biodiversity. But the general feeling was that, neither the Biodiversity Act 2002 nor the Annual Biodiversity Day protect our biodiversity; each one of us keep our vigil to save it.

We take great pride in the successful execution of this project, which was made possible by the dedication and hard work of all participants. Let us continue to champion the cause of environmental conservation and inspire others to join us in nurturing and protecting our precious coastal ecosystems. Together, we can make a significant and lasting impact.
India’s Independence Day, observed on August 15, marked the inception of Grassroute’s inaugural initiative, which entailed the planting of mangroves, Cost Cottonwood Tree Stumps, and Indian Almond seeds. In a departure from traditional cloth flags, flagpoles adorned the beach, embodying a collective sentiment of patriotism. On this significant day, a dedicated group of local volunteers, comprising both young and middle-aged individuals, unveiled this distinctive blend of patriotism and philanthropy.
