“राष्ट्रभाषा के बिना राष्ट्र गूंगा है: महात्मा गांधी “
आज १४ सितंबर #RiseFoundation द्वारा #jjc#Phase3#sector3#Dwarka सेंटर पर बच्चों के साथ मिलकर हिंदी दिवस मनाया गया। बच्चों ने अपनी कुशल प्रतिभाओं के माध्यम से हिंदी दिवस के बारे में अपने विचार रखे। सतरंगी रंगों से बने ग्रीटिंग कार्ड बेहद मनमोहक थे व कविताओं के माध्यम से उन्होंने हिंदी के महत्व को बताया।
माधुरी वार्ष्णेय – सेक्रटरी राइज फाउंडेशन ने कहा कि “ये छोटे छोटे कार्यक्रम उनमे प्रतिभा का विकास व आत्मविश्वास को बढ़ाने में सहायक होते है। “
हिन्दी दिवस प्रत्येक वर्ष 14 सितम्बर को मनाया जाता है। 14 सितम्बर 1949 को संविधान सभा ने एक मत से यह निर्णय लिया कि हिन्दी ही भारत की राजभाषा होगी। इसी महत्वपूर्ण निर्णय के महत्व को प्रतिपादित करने तथा हिन्दी को हर क्षेत्र में प्रसारित करने के लिये राष्ट्रभाषा प्रचार समिति, वर्धा के अनुरोध पर वर्ष 1953 से पूरे भारत में 14 सितम्बर को प्रतिवर्ष हिन्दी-दिवस के रूप में मनाया जाता है। एक तथ्य यह भी है कि 14 सितम्बर 1949 को हिन्दी के पुरोधा व्यौहार राजेन्द्र सिंहा का 50-वां जन्मदिन था, जिन्होंने हिन्दी को राष्ट्रभाषा बनाने के लिए बहुत लंबा संघर्ष किया। स्वतंत्रता प्राप्ति के बाद हिन्दी को राष्ट्रभाषा के रूप में स्थापित करवाने के लिए काका कालेलकर, मैथिलीशरण गुप्त, हजारीप्रसाद द्विवेदी, सेठ गोविन्ददास आदि साहित्यकारों को साथ लेकर व्यौहार राजेन्द्र सिंह ने अथक प्रयास किए।
यहां बोली जाती है हिंदी
भारत के साथ ही नेपाल, अमेरिका, मॉरिशस, फिजी, द.अफ्रीका, सूरीनाम, युगांडा सहित दुनिया के कई देश ऐसे हैं जहां पर हिंदी बोली जाती है। नेपाल में करीब 80 लाख हिंदी बोलने वाले रहते हैं। वहीं अमेरिका में हिंदी बोलने वालों की संख्या करीब साढ़े छह लाख है।
There was an online survey conducted before the workshop and it is learn that almost 50% participants are not aware about landfills, SWM 2016 and penalty clause for bulk generators. All these topics were covered in the workshop.
Right now Municipal Corporation Gurugram (MCG) do not collect any waste from the society. The sanitation team dispose the mix waste to the given location. It is also learnt that many wards in Gurugram are yet not serviced by MCG . So, there is no question of creating any awareness by MCG to the citizens.
RWA/MC realised the pathetic situation of Waste management in Gurugram and agreed to start the waste segregation from one block and start making compost with in the society. Once the trail in one block is successful,then the waste segregation and composting will be done at society level.
Team Rise Foundation NGO will help the to make framework for waste segregation at source and making compost.
We were joined by Sarika Verma , Doctor by profession and Environmentalist by heart. She lives near Sec 15. She shared her views and her efforts to make Zero waste society.
Our friend Bhanu Singh joined the session all the way from Ghaziabad and made commitment to do his bit for waste management at home, specially his son Jayant was super excited to make ecobricks at home from plastic waste.
Madhukar Varshney and Munish Kundra ran an online sessions for students of GD Goenka Public School, Vasant Kunj (New Delhi) with the objective of bringing awareness of Plastic Pollution and its impact on Oceans thru rivers. Additionally , Munish Kundra shown a demo of making Ecobricks . Rise Foundation is aiming to recruit more young supporters within the city .
The session had total of 50+ school students . Children made lots of questions and some demonstrated interest in creating projects and many ideas emerged. The sessions went well and feels like we are connecting with the right community to get the Ecobrick movement started right.
History of Ecobrick?
Ecobricks were first made in number and utilized on a community scale in Guatemala in 2003 with Susana Heisse’s project Pura Vida Atitlan. Since then numerous projects have been started all around the globe.
What is an Ecobrick?
An Ecobrick is a plastic bottle filled, and packed tightly with none recyclable materials so that it can be used as a building block for a structure. Pretty much becoming a brick, made of plastic.
We thanks to Beena maam for arranging the wonderful session for the school students.

” Trees are a natural teacher and they can show us how we are connected to our natural world.
” Today team RISE Foundation (NGO) Madhukar Varshney & Munish Kundra did mulching at #badusarai #miyawakiforest site using dry leaves from Brahma Apartments Sec 7 Dwarka.
Definition : Mulch is any material that is spread or laid over the surface of the soil as a covering – but organic mulches specifically help to improve the soil’s fertility, as they decompose.
The benefits of mulching are as follows:
1. Soil will retain water for longer time I.e. it will slow the evaporation.
2. It will stop or slow down the weeds on site
3. Later on these leaves will turn into compost
4. Safe disposal of horticulture waste.
Mulching is an important part of generating and maintaining the rich soil we need to sustain our miyawaki site.
As we all know that environment plays an important role in healthy and balanced living as well as existence on planet earth. But with the advent of technology and more comfort creating products, various adversities and pollutants are seen to be affecting the ecological system in today’s time. One of the major pollutants these days is PLASTIC.
Plastic is used by the entire world on a gigantic scale. The detrimental side to the usage of plastic has ultimately dawned upon us. The toxic effects of plastic are so farfetched that no biodiversity is left plastic –free today .Due to its synthetic nature, plastic is practically non – biodegradable, which makes it perfect for its use in water –resistant products.
To create awareness about Plastic Pollution and its harmful effects and the simplest yet powerful solution “Ecobricks” online session given to Students of GD Goenka Public School Dwarka (New Delhi) on 4th Sept 2021.
The students participated very well and motivated to make ecobricks at home using MLP (Multilayer plastic) and Single use plastic thrown to garbage. We are very well aware that once this plastic is mixed with other waste- it is next to impossible to FIX the problem and it will defiantly reach to either landfills or Oceans to create nuisance. More that 80 students participated in the online interactive session.

” Today I breathe the air of freedom because of the efforts of our great freedom fighters. Happy Independence Day!”
On August 15, 1947, India finally gained independence from British colonisers. The day serves as a reminder of the struggle for independence and commemorates the valour of freedom fighters who laid down their lives for the nation. On this day, in 1947, the first Prime Minister of independent India, Jawaharlal Nehru, hoisted the national flag at the Lahori Gate of Red Fort in New Delhi.
Team Rise Foundation celebrated the 75th Independence day in Ekta Apartments, Dwarka.
All team members took the Pledge to Keep City Clean and Green.
Plastic pollution has become one of the most pressing environmental issues, as rapidly increasing production of disposable plastic products overwhelms the world’s ability to deal with them. Plastic pollution is most visible in developing Asian and African nations, where garbage collection systems are often inefficient or nonexistent. But the developed world, especially in countries with low recycling rates, also has trouble properly collecting discarded plastics.
Every year, about 8 million tons of plastic waste escapes into the oceans from coastal nations. That’s the equivalent of setting five garbage bags full of trash on every foot of coastline around the world.
Plastics often contain additives making them stronger, more flexible, and durable. But many of these additives can extend the life of products if they become litter, with some estimates ranging to at least 400 years to break down.
How plastics move around the world
Most of the plastic trash in the oceans, Earth’s last sink, flows from land. Trash is also carried to sea by major rivers, which act as conveyor belts, picking up more and more trash as they move downstream. Once at sea, much of the plastic trash remains in coastal waters. But once caught up in ocean currents, it can be transported around the world.
An online session is conducted with Nanakmatta Public School, Udham Singh Nagar (Uttrakhand) on 14th Aug 2021 to discuss and motivated to apply the simple yet powerful solution of Ecobricks made from single use plastic or the plastic at home thrown in the garbage and reach to landfill or flown to Ocean.
Around 100 students join the session about Plastic Pollution/Ocean Pollution , and some facts about the current situation of plastic waste and pollution of Kalayani River in Udham Singh River as follows:
Harm to wildlife
Millions of animals are killed by plastics every year, from birds to fish to other marine organisms. Nearly 700 species, including endangered ones, are known to have been affected by plastics. Nearly every species of seabird eats plastics.
Most of the deaths to animals are caused by entanglement or starvation. Seals, whales, turtles, and other animals are strangled by abandoned fishing gear or discarded six-pack rings. Microplastics have been found in more than 100 aquatic species, including fish, shrimp, and mussels destined for our dinner plates. In many cases, these tiny bits pass through the digestive system and are expelled without consequence. But plastics have also been found to have blocked digestive tracts or pierced organs, causing death. Stomachs so packed with plastics reduce the urge to eat, causing starvation.
Plastics have been consumed by land-based animals, including elephants, hyenas, zebras, tigers, camels, cattle, and other large mammals, in some cases causing death.
We thanks to Mr. Kamalesh Atwal for connecting team Rise Foundation with wonderful students. We really appreciate the questions raised by the students during the session.Students agreed to work on Ecobricks to keep city Clean.

According to the environment ministry, in the year 2019-2020, India generated 3.4 million metric tonnes of plastic waste. In the wake of such statistics and only a small volume of plastic being recycled, ecobricks can act as a resource to reuse plastic for the greater good.
We will continue our campaign to fight plastic pollution/ ocean pollution.
