Deforestation in urban areas often goes unnoticed—until the air gets hotter, the dust thicker, and butterflies disappear. Gurugram has lost over 27% of its tree cover in the last 15 years. But every empty plot, roadside, and rooftop is an opportunity to reverse that.

Green Gurugram is a large-scale public-private afforestation project focused on rewilding the city using native trees and biodiversity zones. Here’s how:

1. Miyawaki Forests – Barren or unused urban land is converted into mini-forests using the Miyawaki method. These grow 10x faster and 30x denser than conventional plantations.

2. Green Campus Challenge – Schools and companies compete to adopt and green their campuses. Each planted tree is geo-tagged and linked to a public dashboard.

3. Tree Tracker Dashboards – All trees are monitored for survival and growth, allowing transparency and pride in nurturing urban forests.

4. Biodiversity Corridors – Connected stretches of trees, shrubs, and water features that help pollinators and migratory birds thrive again in the city.

5. Compost & Sapling Kit Drives – During festivals, residents and employees receive free kits to plant and care for native species at home.

So far, the campaign has planted 1.2 lakh+ trees with a 93% survival rate. It’s backed by the Haryana Forest Department, local eco-clubs, and 250+ schools and 60+ corporate teams.

This isn’t about tree counting. It’s about tree connecting—reviving our bond with nature and ensuring future generations grow up with shade, oxygen, and wonder. Let’s make Gurugram not just greener—but wilder, cooler, and kinder.
