About us
Himalayan Nature Club is a Dalhousie (Himachal Pradesh) based pioneer organization which is working for the cause of nature awareness and education. This club was formed with the basic intention of increasing awareness about nature through fun, adventure and educational programmes. Apart from organizing short nature trails and trekking cum nature education camps in the Himalayas, we are also involved in a small way in various educational as well as conservation oriented research projects in different parts of India. We also collaborate with the forest department, etc., and other Non-Government Organizations who work with same intention as our organization.
Decades of aggressive development policies pursued by both developed and developing countries have finally achieved development at all levels, but not without a price. Depleting natural resources, environmental pollution, climatic changes, etc., are some of the issues that challenge all nations now. It is time we thought of more sustainable means and ways of development without giving up development. As individuals, we can all contribute to sustainable means by adopting eco friendly ways in our day to day lives. Like...
- Vegetable and non-vegetable waste segregation while throwing away garbage
- Minimizing use of plastic bags
