Red Tape Movement
We are living in a world which is under “transition and transformation phase” of energy and facing the problem of Climate Change. So, we must develop a better and natural “GHG Sink system” to achieve 350 ppm CO2 level in the atmosphere. Trees are “Best Natural Sinks” of CO2 and will be helpful to tackle with Climate Change.

Red Tape Movement was started by the then District Savings Officer of District Etawah (Uttar Pradesh, India) Mr Prabhat Misra on 5th June, 2008, to save trees and biodiversity. Under this movement, especially on a holiday, we choose a village and go to this village and do plantation and then tie red tapes on existing trees trunks, with the help of villagers and there, we give them message that to cut the trees is lethal for our future and generations to come. Since 2008, we tied red tapes on thousands of trees and making aware grassroot people about Climate Change and importance of conservation of nature.

Red Tape Movement, is also a Global Partner of 'Rise For Climate' global event ( List of Global Partners https://riseforclimate.org/#partners), going to organise the event in more than 350 basic education department rural schools through 'Teachers Club Uttar Pradesh' & 'Mission Shikshan Samvad Uttar Pradesh’; about 10,000 students and their teachers are expected to participate on September 08, 2018 ( https://actionnetwork.org/events/red-tape-movement ). Gen Sec of 'Teachers Club Uttar Pradesh' Mr Avanindra Jadaun, Teacher in Junior High School ( District Etawah) will lead the event along with Mr Vimal Kumar, Teacher in Junior High School (District Kanpur Dehat).

On that day, rural schools, in throughout 'Uttar Pradesh' province of India, will do plantation, aware students & villagers about Environment Conservation and Climate Change; students will tie red tapes on existing trees trunks and take 'Oath To Save' Trees & Biodiversity and to live Environment Friendly life.
On 8 September we will rise together in our neighbourhoods to take action. We’ll connect all our local efforts globally to help make an unstoppable wave of people’s climate leadership – from our villages, to our schools, and places of worship.
We are at a tipping point. Year 2020 is a threshold for meeting global targets to tackle the climate crisis. We are fast running out of time to act. We need our local leaders to step up and do everything they can right now to stop the fossil fuel industry and build 100% renewable energy for all, to Change Climate Change.
We believe that the Global Climate Action Summit, being held in California on 12-14 September 2018 presents a unique opportunity to pressure local governments and institutions to raise their ambition and do more for climate action. We think this is an opportunity to create pressure on World Leaders for fossil free world.
Every leader has a moral obligation to do everything they can to stop the fossil fuel industry and build 100% renewable energy for all.

We can’t live with energy from fossil fuels. 21st Century is the 'Century Of Climate Change’ and it’s time to repower our communities with clean and renewable energy, so that we can make the 21st Century, the 'Century Of Renewable Energy. Anything less than that is out of line with what science and justice demand.

So, join us on September 08, 2018; ‘United We’ can save earth from Climate Change, through such peoples participatory grass root level awareness movements. This is MUST to save our beautiful Earth from Climate Change for our future generations to come.
