3. Vegetation (including) forest conservation

4. Harnessing solar energy

5. Aquatic resources sustainable use

6. Physical features utilization

7. Community education on productive usage of nature to maintain ecological balance

8. Information discrimination via various media

9. Prevention of air pollution (environmental pollution in general).

10. Outreach programs for global conservation.

11. Research in mineral resources

12. Maximum output using minimum inputs and resources

All these will be achieved through the application of various strategic plans namely.

Clubs seminars, exhibitions, trade fairs, publications, tours/ field visits, intellectual talks/

brainstorming sessions, demonstrations.

TRAINING STRATEGY

With the acquired resources the centre will put up avenues for various demonstration

research and public lectures.
