How Green Is Your School?

This is the latest book from our Environment Education Unit. To coincide with the Swachh Bharat Mission, the 2015 GSP audit will focus on solid waste management. GSP (Green Schools Programme) seeks to foster environmental literacy by moving beyond theories and text books and concentrates on “doing”. The programme helps schools to audit the use of natural resources within their premises, provides them the methodology to assess themselves as environmental managers and plug the gaps that are identified through the audit.
