G Square plants 6.36 lakh saplings across its projects

This World Environment Day, we acknowledge that the health of the planet is paramount and reaffirm our commitment to responsible development, said Bala Ramajeyam, Founder & Managing Director, G Square Group.
He said that the real estate sector is resource-intensive, apart from being a huge consumer of energy. We therefore believe that it is important to encourage environmentally-conscious construction practices. In this context, the theme of World Environment Day, "Ending Global Plastic Pollution," is pertinent. The theme is a reminder that environmental health and human well-being are interlinked. Plastics are non-biodegradable and take decades to decompose. They enter the food chain and harm marine and human life. 
As real estate developers, we must play our part in combating plastic pollution by ensuring that we source sustainable construction materials. Materials such as bamboo and reclaimed wood are durable and leave a lower environmental footprint. 
As part of our green initiatives, we have already planted 6.36 lakh plants across our projects and plan to plant an additional 50,000 saplings at our flagship Seven Hills project in Coimbatore to mark this Environment Day, he added.
