ECOCLUB Report 2018-19
1. Awareness and Cleanliness drive by SLC Eco club students in
college as well as in nearby areas of East Delhi
Cleanliness is both the abstract state of being clean and free from dirt, and the habit of achieving
and maintaining that state. SLC Eco-club volunteers took initiative to interact with college
students as well they visited the neighboring areas to sensitize people about the value of
cleanliness and the harmful consequences of keeping the surroundings dirty. They voiced their
concern and projected views through slogans and pamphlets. The awakening of the general
masses in this respect is a welcome sign & would make our world a heaven to live in.
Swachh Bharat Swasth Bharat
Clean City, Green City
Cleanliness is next to Holiness

6. Bird House
Nowadays, it has become difficult for birds to find food and shelter for their survival especially
in the urban areas, due to lack of nesting grounds and proper food. Eco club students took
another initiative towards helping birds to survive for that they took used products like plastic
bottles, waste wooden planks and newspapers to build bird shelters and bird feeders instead of
using market products. This step was taken to make understand the students how to use waste
products found in household and nearby work place into any worth product which is not only
useful for birds but also reduce the waste. These bird feeders and shelters were hung on trees,
inside college campus where there are a large number of trees and birds are not disturbed by
human activities. This initiative is not short lived and will be continued with new innovative
ideas.

lungs. The place is mainly known for its diverse species of living organism.
The eco club students also visited to this place as a part of their project work. They met many
people who are continuously engaged in the process for the protection of the environment. They
also met people who are responsible for the protection of these conserved places although they
are employed by upper authorities but the role they are playing by serving this area with
dedication is something worth more than only employment, hey shared many things such as what
are the things which are harming the environment and how we can tackle these problems by not
even changing our lifestyles more. They familiarize us with each and every species they could on
our multiple visits and helped us in digging more into this world. They also told us about the
problems and situations currently the shanti van has been facing due to the imbalances in the
nature.
With this project they got the opportunity to dig more into this beautiful world which they were
unaware of and got the knowledge of flora and fauna, birds, small animals and many other
organisms which seems to have not been visible normally but are so much important for the
survival of mankind. They also get to know about the threats to these species and how they can
help them replenish by just a minimal cost of being a responsible person. They get the feeling
that how many things have been left unexplored in this world and the project has finally able to
take them to the point where one could wonder about this world and starts exploring it more and
more.
