TNPCB mobile exhibition

Staff Reporter

Chennai : The Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board has re-designed a van as a mobile exhibition to reach people at the grass roots-level and children with campaigns on environment during the silver jubilee of the Board in 2007. The van will cater for schoolchildren and general public in urban centres and rural villages.

IT carries material on different aspects of environmental issues such as rainwater harvesting, organic farming, and pesticide residues, bio-medical waste, municipal solid and waste management, and domestic waste water treatment and recycling.

The van carries messages on the Board's activities on one side and water and air pollution and their impacts on the other side. During the visit of the exhibition to schools, a set of environment-related books will be given to their libraries for creating awareness, N. Sundaradevan, Chairman, TNPCB, said.
