Talir, a school-level natural resources awareness campaign, was organised by the Kerala State Land Use Board at the Government Girls Higher Secondary School, Pattom, on Friday.
Inaugurating the campaign, K. Muraleedharan, MLA, called for a development strategy that also protected the environment. Big development projects were replacing the green cover of the Earth. There must be a conscious effort to increase the green cover by planting saplings of trees and plants, he said.
