#Breaking The Delhi High Court admits our Public Interest Litigation (PIL) regarding functionality/constitution of the Standing Committee of National Board of Wildlife. Chief Justice DK Upadhyaya & Justice Tejas Karia issued notice, seeking Central govt response regarding non-compliance of #Wildlife Protection Act in its constitution. #PrakritiSrivastava & others vs Union of India WP 8896/ 2026 1/5 🧵

@prernabindra So much gratitude and all our support.

The petitioners are grateful to the Delhi High Court, and to Hon'ble judges for hearing this matter and issuing notice. India's #ProtectedAreas are the last refuge of much of our endangered wildlife—and sustain the forests, water and ecosystems on which we all depend. Grateful also to Senior Advocate Prashanto C. Sen, Advocate Shibani Ghosh, and the legal team. Here's hoping the law prevails. Wish us luck. More importantly, here is hoping that our precious wildlife & their habitat is truly protected, in deed & spirit/ 5/5

Thank you so much Amitji 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I have signed the @FossilFuelTreaty artist letter. The call for a #FossilFuelTreaty is already backed by 18 countries, hundreds of cities, Nobel Laureates Indigenous Peoples and parliamentarians. Thousands of scientists, faith leaders and civil society organisations. And more than one million individuals worldwide. Now artists are adding their voices. Over 200 of us have signed. Artists don't just witness history. We help make it. Join us: fossilfueltreaty.org/artist-letter  #Artists4Treaty

For climate, this is the best of times & the worst of times. The worst – because climate impacts are intensifying & the energy crisis has exposed the deep risks of dependence on fossil fuels. The best – because the renewables revolution is well underway. We have the enormous opportunity – and responsibility - to turn this into a moment of resolve, fairness & shared progress. We can finally turn the page on fossil fuels & write a future powered by renewables & rooted in climate justice.

The climate crisis & the energy crisis may seem separate, but they share the same destructive origin: Fossil fuels. And they demand the same answer: A fast, fair transition to clean energy & a surge in adaptation, resilience & climate justice for those already facing climate harm.

Thank you for organising this panel and engagement @projectmumbai1 @JoshiShishir 🦋🌏🙏🏻 this #WorldEnvironmentDay. Making #MumbaiClimateWeek a continuous effort. Some key takeaways from today’s session: A climate-resilient Mumbai means a city where people can live, work, move, play and gather safely. The spirit of sport is teamwork, resilience and discipline. This is exactly what we need for climate action. Heat is where the climate crisis becomes deeply personal - in our homes, on our streets, in our schools, at our workplaces and even on our playing fields. As citizens, each of us has an integral part to play. We must move forward #NowForClimate decisively and collectively. Thank you @richapintoi for conducting this session 🌸 @mybmc @ABdeVilliers17 @AshwiniBhide @TataMumMarathon

The contrasts are stark. While some communities struggle for clean air, water and dignified living conditions, others continue to consume far beyond the limits of what our planet can sustain. It is time to stop treating environmental action as an optional extra. It is time to move beyond token gestures and towards meaningful change. This #WorldEnvironmentDay, let us remember that every choice we make has an impact on nature, on the climate, and on each other. Some things we can all do: 🌿 Refuse single-use plastics and avoid unnecessary plastic consumption. 🌿 Segregate and manage waste at source. 🌿 Waste less. Consume mindfully. 🌿 Protect forests, trees, wetlands and natural ecosystems. 🌿 Support organisations working for wildlife conservation and environmental protection. 🌿 Work with local authorities and communities to scale solutions that restore ecosystems and build resilience. 🌿 Invest in businesses and innovations that place people and planet at the heart of progress. These are some of the things I try to do. Some of the things we can all do. The environment is not separate from us. It is the source of every breath we take, every meal we eat, every drop of water we drink. Let us not look away from reality. Let us act with courage, urgency and hope. For nature. For climate. For our future. #WorldEnvironmentDay #NowForClimate #PlanetStartsWithPeople #SDGs #GlobalGoals #BeatPollution #ActNow #ForNature

The past eleven years have been the hottest on record. Every fraction of a degree brings greater harm – especially to the most vulnerable. This #WorldEnvironmentDay, warning signals are everywhere. This is the moment to act for our environment & for our future.

More than 50,000 @UN peacekeepers are deployed in some of the world’s most dangerous settings to protect civilians, deescalate tensions, oversee aid delivery, support elections & more. An investment in @UNPeacekeeping is an investment in a safer future. #InvestInPeace

No drinking water in Devprayag?! From the land where rivers spring, a drinking water shortage #Uttarakhand

Thank you so much @upalakbr999 for the spot light on Panha 🥭♥️🙏🏻

Wednesday is #WorldBeeDay! Bees face many dangers due to human activities — but we can all help protect them & support beekeepers by growing native plants, buying honey from local farmers & taking #ClimateAction. fao.org/world-bee-day/…

The brutal realities of the climate crisis are hitting home hard. The devastating storms across Uttar Pradesh have claimed lives, destroyed homes and left families grieving. My deepest condolences to all those who have lost loved ones. We cannot afford to look away from the urgency of climate action any longer. reuters.com/sustainability… And no, cutting more trees is not going to save lives and property. It will only lead to more destruction.

Moms & citizens have been raising their voices for cleaner air, safer streets & healthier cities for our children. With Pune set to introduce India’s first Low Emission Zone (LEZ) in Shivajinagar, this is more than a policy win, it’s proof that citizen led movements can shape urban futures. Less pollution. Better public transport. Walkable neighbourhoods. Healthier childhoods. @WMMaharashtra @walkingproject

GDP is the most widely used metric of economic progress & well-being. But it cannot be the only one. GDP is indifferent to whether income goes to billionaires or to the poor – or if that income goes to addressing hunger, health or deprivation. Let’s count what matters: Health. Biodiversity. Job-creation. Human rights. Equality.
