On April 22nd, Earth Day, a monumental event is set to unfold before our eyes – the world's largest global Climate Clock assembly and display. The initiative has been organized by Energy Swaraj in collaboration with ATAL Innovation Mission (NITI Aayog) & AICTE and is set to serve as a powerful reminder of the pressing need to tackle climate change – the greatest challenge of our time.
The Climate Clock assembly and display is an awe-inspiring initiative that will take place in various locations worldwide.
This is a movement to aware people of climate change happening and how to combat it. This has never taken place hence, this will be one of the most important days of every individual’s life as they contribute to this climate change.
The clocks will count down the time remaining until the world reaches the critical threshold of 1.5 degrees Celsius of global warming, a threshold beyond which the impacts of climate change are predicted to become catastrophic and irreversible. The clocks' message is clear – time is running out to tackle climate change, and urgent action is needed now to avert a global catastrophe.
This groundbreaking initiative aims to raise awareness about the urgency of climate action and ignite collective action for a brighter and more sustainable future.
Energy Swaraj Foundation, the organization behind the Climate Clock assembly and display, is led by Prof. Chetan Singh Solanki known as the “Solar man of India” with a group of happy individuals committed to driving the transition to a sustainable and equitable energy system. Their focus is on empowering communities to take control of their energy needs and transition towards a cleaner, more resilient, and more equitable energy future.
The initiative's significance cannot be overstated, and the Climate Clock assembly and display serve as a POWERFUL symbol of the urgency of the climate crisis. The clocks are a call to action for governments, businesses, and individuals worldwide to step up their efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, transition to renewable energy sources, and implement sustainable practices.
