Delhi inaugurates ‘Breathable Art’ to raise awareness on air quality and sustainable living.
- The initiative is part of the ‘Breath of Change – Clean Air, Blue Skies’ campaign held under the Environmental Information, Awareness, Capacity Building and Livelihood Programme (EIACP) of the Environment Education, Awareness, Research and Skill Development (EEARSD) Scheme.
- Breathable Art: It is an innovative, living structure created using air-purifying plants like Areca palm, snake plant, and peace lily and sustainable materials to raise awareness on air pollution and promote sustainable urban living.
- Serving as an educational hub for students, eco-clubs, and residents, it uses QR-code content to explain plants’ air-cleaning roles, how they enhance urban green spaces, and provide a nature-based solution for improving air quality.
- EEARSD Scheme: It is a central Sector Scheme by the Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate Change to promote non-formal environmental education, fostering scientific temper, critical thinking, creativity, and empathy through Eco-clubs, Youth Clubs, and similar groups for hands-on sustainable learning.
