The initiative will culminate on Earth Hour on March 29th, with the city that has the maximum number of kids taking the pledge being honoured as ‘India’s Greenest City’.
With the aim to address serious environmental issues in a manner that’s relatable to kids, Nickelodeon’s popular toons like Ninja, Motu Patlu, Dora will come together to share some of their favourite ‘green tips’. What’s more? A ‘Green Facts’ tab on the Big Help page will give users fascinating facts about trees and the environment that one may have never heard before.
