About me

I am Ritika Tewari and an Indian national. I am 22 years old and pursuing a masters programme in Natural Resources Management from TERI University, New Delhi. I have a Bachelors degree in Sciences with majors Botany from Sri Venkateshwara college, Delhi University. I am deeply interested in working in the field of environmental management and climate change.
I firmly believe that our actions today will be pivotal in deciding the face of this planet in the years to come. I would be keen in exchanging knowledge and associate with professionals working in the field of environmental management and climate change through this forum.

My Green Mission

I believe much needs to be done in the field of management of our wastes. With the population growing at a fast pace, India would soon be undergoing major crisis if immidiate steps are not taken to improve the waste management practices in the country. Apart from national policies, I firmly believe decentralised approaches are a must for achieving any targets. My green mission therefore is to work on developing strategies that are region specific in dealing with managing our environment..
The impacts of climate change is knocking our doors and I believe the first and formost need is an aware public. Minor changes in our lifestyles can make a difference and I advocate that these can be inculcated and not imposed.
The green mission is what Gandhiji said very aptly, " Be the change you want to see in the world"
