Around 40 students from Isha Samskriti school participated in the awareness programme on the 'Save Soil' movement at the Coimbatore Railway Station on April 6.
A release from the Isha Foundation said that the programme included a performance of the traditional martial art form Kalari and a 'flash mob' sequence, through which the students conveyed the importance of protecting soil health.
'Save Soil' movement is initiated by Jaggi Vasudev, founder of Isha Foundation and Isha Samskriti school, to urge and support governments in formulating policies that will address soil health and halt and reverse soil degradation, the release said. Jaggi Vasudev commenced a lone motorcycle journey of 30,000 km on March 21 that will cover 27 countries in 100 days to raise awareness about soil extinction and build global consensus for urgent action, according to the release.
