Pune TreeWatch

Pune Tree Watch attempts to bring people together who are concerned about the dwindling tree cover. We aim to monitor, act and protect the trees that harbour a variety of life and that provide the citizens with various ecological benefits.Since our inception in July'05 we have saved hundreds of trees from felling and have been a strong support group for the concerned Pune citizenry.
Our activities include:
* Preventing illegal tree felling * Surveying trees to be cut * Working on the policy level like the Maharashtra (Urban areas) Protection and Preservation of Trees Act, 1975.
