On the eve of  World Environment Day 2026 Awareness session was conducted at Harcourt Butler Technical University (HBTU), Kanpur followed by the plantation activity to build a Nature-Positive Future in alignment with the global call for urgent climate action and environmental protection. One of the key messages shared by Dr. Meenakshi Singh was that sustainability is no longer a choice, it is a responsibility and Nature-based solutions are the strategic necessity.
