« Les artifices de divertissement » et les « dispositifs sonores portatifs ou émanants de véhicules » sont interdits à #Ganges . On en est donc à l'interdiction du port de casseroles…

I wanted to share my experience with you all about my recent trip to Uttarakhand. It is rightly called as Devabhoomi, such a wonderful place to be in if you are looking for a break from your regular activities. The roads throughout the state are absolutely fantastic (1/n)

By building an international network of partners and sharing #eDNA know-how, #Vigilife is establishing long term #monitoring programs, which will become a precious tool for safeguarding freshwater biodiversity.
1. The #Amazon: born out of the drying up of an inland sea, I am one of the longest rivers in the world. Together with my tributaries, I contain nearly 20% of the #biodiversity of all the rivers on earth and play an essential role in the global water cycle. Image

Yamuna, flowing through Ravines and visibly much cleaner: clicked at two locations from Agra-Lucknow Expressway. Some of the bountiful gains from #COVID19 Why can’t we have paid boat ride service from Delhi to Lucknow as experiential tourism @uptourismgov @upcoprahul ImageImageImageImage
