"Climate action is collective action!" Says Bhumi Pednekar , who has now been roped in by an international climate change initiative !

Bhumi Pednekar has always been vocal about her passion for working towards climate change. Now a new feather has been added to her hat. The Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare actress has been roped in for an international initiative called Purpose Campaign on climate change. The campaign is closely working with the United Nations globally to lead climate action campaigns across India, Brazil and South Africa.

One look at global reports over the last decade reveals an alarming uprise in the urgency of resolving this crisis. “These headlines only tell one side of the story. What gets lost in the text is that we can still limit human-induced climate change,” Bhumi shares.Bhumi hopes that globally citizens unite for this endeavour. “Without countries and individuals joining hands, we cannot make the big changes required.

Young people across India are already showing us a way ahead. Let’s join hands to set the future course of climate. Let’s change the headlines. Join the movement to support collective climate action in India,” Bhumi insists. Now, the actor is starting a series of chats on national radio to reach out to a wider set of people and engage them on the subject of climate conservation, an issue she feels needs immediate attention. She said, "It is important to have this important conversation about climate change out in the open. We are in a crisis and we just can't look away. We have to do whatever it takes to educate people about the need to protect the environment."

"We are running out of time and we cannot make our next generations vulnerable. I have vowed to use all my resources and my voice to bring as much awareness as possible," Bhumi added.

Bhumi says the new journey needs partners who are like-minded and focused to save the planet. "I'm proud to start my new campaign on India's only international radio network as it has incredible reach. I'm hoping through my shows on the radio I will be able to sensitise people more about the problem that's looming, engage with fellow climate warriors who are doing an amazing job at saving the planet and also bring together people with common goals so that they can collaborate and make a lot of difference," the 'Bala' actor said.

'Climate Warrior' is a concerted social media initiative that Bhumi spearheads to highlight the incredible work done by tireless environmental activists and citizen groups across India.
