Today, to mark World Meteorological Day 2026, Srushtidnyan facilitated a critical dialogue on climate observation at the Veermata Jijabai Botanical Udyan & Zoo.
Key Highlights:
• Youth Engagement: Interactive sessions with students from M. D. College, Parel, and Viva College, Virar.
• Urban Microclimates: Discussion on the cooling role of botanical gardens in mitigating the “Urban Heat Island” effect.
• Hands-on Learning: A “Tree Trail” and competitive quiz led by experts Ms. Sangeeta Kharat, Dr. Abhishek Satam, Dr. Shreya Bhanap, and Gauri Gurav.
Understanding climate data isn’t just for scientists; it’s a tool for every citizen to advocate for a cooler, greener planet.
