Inchara has partnered with Bangalore Environment Trust to take up various projects for Heritage Tree Plantation & Lake Conservation. On 20th March 2021 Inchara volunteers carried out their first lake preservation activity along with the BET team and the local Bellandur community to convert the wastelands of Satish Dhawan’s Community Biodiversity Park into an oxygen bank.
A stretch of roughly 18 acres of land has been used to plant more than 2000 saplings of indigenous, medicinal plants like Arjuna, Peepal, Jamun, Banyan, etc. This green stretch will be the region’s oxygen bank and will help in mitigating the menace of pollution and miasma in the air.
Presently, a 340-meter stretch is curated as a prototype which will be expanded and replicated in the coming days for the entire wasteland. The initial prototype that is currently being rolled out under the seasoned guidance of Shri Yellappa Reddy is expected to be a potential carbon sink for the area because the stretch will be adorned by plants that will help purify the air.
