                     7 Initiatives by Pradip 
Burman to Save 
the Environment
At 80, Mr Pradip Burman is an entrepreneur, philanthropist, 
environmentalist & prolific businessman, founded Mobius Foundation. 
It is a non-profit organisation that works towards sustainable 
development & spreading awareness among people about why we need 
to walk on this path. 
The founder strongly believes that we must sprout sustainability 
awareness in society and showcase the irresponsible activity we do 
without thinking about our environment for petty gains. 
For a sustainable lifestyle, we must educate children & make some 
profound decisions so that they can be soft and friendly towards 
nature because running behind materialistic comfort only takes us 
towards our end. 
Therefore, Pradip Burman began his initiative to save the 
environment. 
The Initiatives by Pradip Burman 
 Mission Sustainability: Population V/s Planet 
Human population growth is the root of all environmental-related problems. However, this is often left out 
of the conversation. We can fight to lessen climate change, clean up pollution & stop habitat loss of 
biodiversity. But these all cannot be achieved until we address or control unsustainable population growth. 
The first thing that we can do is talk about it with the people. 
To achieve this goal, Mobius Foundation began its journey by partnering with Zee Media and WION Channel 
to start conversations nationwide to explain how population growth is destroying natural resources and 
greenery. 
 Project Aakar
Project Aakar is another initiative by the Mobius Foundation and a part of the Sustainability Solution 
program that works to promote awareness among women for family planning. 
As the Earth is burdened with the growing population, they require more natural resources to consume, 
such as water, food, energy. This growing demand is depleting the planet’s resources. 
Through this initiative, Mobius Foundation is supporting the Government of India’s commitment to stabilize 
the population. It is a crucial step to reduce global issues, extinction of species & carbon footprint. 
 3. Gyan Anant Vidyalaya 
Pradip Burman has established a sustainable school called Gyan Anant Vidyalaya to teach young children 
about experiential learning by planting trees, and to live a sustainable life through curriculum activities. 
The school gives knowledge through activities like conservation management, forestry, organic farming, 
etc. 
 4. Project Sanjeevani 
To increase green cover in the states, Mobius Foundation, under Project
 Sanjeevani, began a mass tree plantation drive in 2018 and has planted 5000 
saplings in Haryana.
The growth of greenery will not just reduce the greenhouse gases & other carbon 
footprints, but it will also help restore the ecological conservation projects for 
plantation drive. 
Many local schools, students, farmers, Kisan club members and NGOs join the 
plantation drive to improve our Earth’s health. 
 5 .ICSE India
The International Conference on Sustainability Education (ICSE) was jointly 
established by Mobius Foundation and ‘The Climate Reality Project’ in 
partnership with the UNESCO New Delhi office. The initiative addresses the 
challenges that are halting the path of sustainable education. 
It is empowering learners with new values, skills and attitudes that take the 
entire society towards sustainability. The leaders, educators, practitioners and 
policymakers are sharing innovative ideas, practices, case studies and policies to 
make a better decision for ‘Education for Sustainable Development, 
Environmental Education and Climate Change Education.’ 
 6 .Training of Trainers on Circular Economy (ToTCE): The Educational 
Institutions
 ToTCE is an empowering education programme that brings change to 
education with circular economy knowledge. In this initiative, Mobius 
Foundation invites collaborative efforts from practitioners, educational 
institutions and leaders to strengthen the education system and practices to 
provide knowledge beyond formal education. The programme is also 
designed to induce core circular thinking and values for teachers, lecturers, 
and academicians to teach future generations. 
 7. Khushal Parivar Diwas
 Mobius Foundation began Khushal Parivar Diwas in sync with the UP 
government’s initiative, family planning. It organises camps at Trivendigani 
CHC and Kaisarganj CHC in Barabanki and Bahraich district to spread 
awareness and showcase how contraceptive methods can help them in 
planning a family. 
 It will increase the awareness among couples, help them plan a family & 
reduce the birth rates so that they can live a fulfilling and happy life.
