Guwahati: The second edition of ‘Nagaland for Green Christmas’ has been launched in order to celebrate Sustainable & Eco-Friendly Christmas.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Coordination Centre, Planning & Coordination Department of Nagaland has launched the second edition of the ‘Nagaland for Green Christmas’ campaign this year. Its main focus is on mobilizing all the residents of the northeastern state of Nagaland and celebrating a sustainable and environment-friendly Christmas. Nagaland for Green Christmas’ campaign aims to disseminate the guidelines followed by United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals. The key objective of this campaign deals with generating awareness about the eco-friendly manner of celebrating festivities, thereby transforming this Christmas not a sustainable one.

“Nagaland for Green Christmas is the need of the hour for our state primarily because, while it is the most wonderful time of the year, it’s not the most environmentally friendly. With a little know-how, we can host a state-wide sustainable and eco-friendly Christmas. From the type of tree, we buy to the food we eat, everything – no matter how big or small – can make a huge difference. The key is to incorporate small changes and considerations into our normal routine- think about the items we buy, how we use them and how we dispose of them as well.” – stated a DIPR release.

Furthermore, as a part of its continuing celebrations, the SDG Coordination Centre has also planned for ‘Green Christmas Contest 2021’ with the theme of ‘Minimalism’ that depicts celebrations to the maximum by using minimum and locally availably resources. and the applications will be taken into account till December 25, 2021.
