Bhupender Yadav calls for mindful use of all resources to save nature, launches ‘Ideas4LiFE’ portal

New Delhi: Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav has launched “Ideas4LiFE” portal for inviting ideas related to products and services for inducing behavioural changes related to environment-friendly lifestyles.

Interacting with participants and students at the launch event of Ideas4LiFE, Bhupendre Yadav said this initiative aims to encourage and motivate students, faculty and research scholars to contribute their innovative ideas to the global initiative of Mission LiFE.

He said this is a remarkable opportunity for inspired minds to participate in a global movement dedicated to environmental sustainability.

Highlighting the importance of Mission LiFE, Yadav said that all sorts of basic things we get from nature are in purest form but in return our output is impure.

“This is the time to introspect and save nature and help sustain it for future generations. Nature provides us with food, oil, energy and medicine for our living. When nature gives us everything that is needed for survival, then it is also our responsibility to save it, he added.

Yadav said there is a need for this initiative and it is a collective responsibility to make it a success. Mindful and deliberate use of all resources will help us to save nature” he added.

The portal ‘Ideas4Life.nic.in’ will allow participants to submit their ideas and innovations online.

The winning ideas under each of the seven themes of Mission LiFE will be recognized and awarded with attractive prizes for individuals as well as for institutions. UNICEF has been an active partner in the implementation of Mission LiFE.

MoEFCC in collaboration with UNICEF YuWaah has developed a comprehensive Ideas4LiFE portal for the submission of innovative ideas, their management, and further processing of entries.
