Too much exposure to air pollution affects our health and immunity, making us susceptible to infections and diseases. Severely affects the vulnerable group of people including children, pregnant women, and the elderly raising their risk of getting COVID-19.
Air pollution might cause a rapid increase in the death rate due to COVID-19. And, that is why there is an urgent need for cleaner air which we can get from plants and trees.
There is a need for a centralized online community platform to run decentralized local communities of people who collaboratively work for a common goal, which is environmental sustainability.
Here comes the solution which is running as a pilot experiment to evaluate the platform feasibility, time, cost, risk, and performance.
104 users have chosen MGD Community Platform so far to collaborate and learn. I welcome you to experience MGD platform and share your valuable inputs.

In the first week of April 2021, Delhi’s environmental activist Pravin Mishra is going to hold a workshop on domestic waste management and composting. If you want to be a part of this workshop and make Delhi a garbage free state, then please attend such workshops of Pravin Ji.
Garbage mountains are increasing in Delhi, which needs to be controlled now. Delhi people will have to introduce waste management system at the colony or local level. If it is not controlled, then the day is not far when you will see garbage on the streets of Delhi.
The best way to dispose of wet waste is to make compost which can be used to grow trees and plants to make our city greener and cleaner. For this, a decentralized community of colony or local level needs to be created which works closely with the government.
