My Jungle - Participatory Forest Conservation
Organization information
Sahyadri Nisarga Mitra
Location: Chiplun, India
Summary
The Konkan coastline is almost a living, breathing entity. This paradise is slipping away from us like sand from our fists. Pollution by chemical companies, coal power projects etc. are engaged in destroying the delicate ecological balance of this beautiful region and also responsible for global warming. SNM plans to purchase 50 acres of land in the trust's name to build forest conservation model which will be replicated by private forest owners. Important Notice about Projects in India: We expect that there will be significant delays in getting funds to this project due to new regulatory requirements that impact GlobalGiving's ability to disburse to Indian-banked organizations. GlobalGiving is working hard to address the issue, but there is a chance that we will be unable to disburse funds to this project. If we cannot disburse funds, donations to this project may be reallocated to another organization per our terms and conditions.
