What is
Under the leadership of the Secretary-General, United Nations,
governments have advanced international efforts to fight, mitigate
and adapt to climate change
At the Climate Conference (COP) in Cancun in 2010, governments
adopted the Cancun agreements, forming the basis for the largest-
ever collective effort to reduce carbon emissions and address the
long-term challenges of climate change.
Green (R)evolution is an Initiative to Educate, Inspire and Act on
Mitigation & Adaptation methods of Climate Change.
Reality Check
Carbon dioxide concentration is Human activity caused most of 40% higher than in pre-industrial times.
the warming between 1951 and 2010.
Heatwaves and heavy rains have become more frequent since the 1950s.
Earth’s surface warmed 0.85 °C over the period 1880 to 2012.
Arctic sea ice has declined on average 3.8% per decade since 1979.
Global sea level is expected to rise between 26 and 82 cm by 2100.
Only an aggressive mitigation scenario can keep temperature rise below 2°C.

How does the Program Work?
There are 2 Parts to the Program
Knowledge Testing
On-Ground • Wear-a-Change (Compulsory)
• Group Activity (Optional) Activity
• Online Exam
• Plant-a-Seed (Compulsory)
Program Details
Knowledge Testing: Participants can choose a week slot and inform their respective
Climate Counselors to give the exam. The knowledge shared in the book will be assessed in the
form of 10 questions. The test will contain Objective type questions & scores will be awarded
to the Participants.
“A +”, “A”, “B+” and “B” Grade will be given for the Plant-a-seed/Wear-a-change Activity. Note: Participants who do not attempt the exam by the deadline will be considered disqualified and
will receive a participation certificate.
• Plant-a-Seed (Compulsory): As a part of compulsory activity, all the basic
program participants will have to promote the plant-able pencils for Rs. 25/- each and use the leaflet along with it to explain the issue of Climate Change and the steps one has to take to prevent it. Participants have to ask the buyers of the pencils to give a miss call on the number mentioned on the leaflet to support the cause (An email will be sent to them regarding the Plant-a-Seed Competition). The fund collected by the participants after performing the activity has to be submitted to ICCE. The Funds are used for Social Activities. If Pencils are not promoted it has to be returned to ICCE for dispatch of the certificates. Extra grades are provided for the promotions of extra pencils.
Program Details
• Wear-a-Change (Compulsory): As a part of compulsory activity, all the
advance program participants will have to promote the seed-paper wristbands for Rs. 15/- each and use the leaflet along with it to explain the issue of Global Warming and the steps one has to take to prevent it. Participants have to ask the buyers of the wristbands to give a miss call on the number mentioned on the leaflet to support the cause.

International Certification: The Green
(R)evolution Global Certificate is Recognized by various International Organizations and Government agencies allowing participants to showcase their contributions towards Actions Against Climate Change.
Access to Best in Class Content: The
Material provided to Participants contains the best in class content procured from UNFCCC, The World Bank Institute, NASA & IPCC.
Benefits to Participants contd.
Exposure to Social Activity:
Participants are introduced to social actions through the On Ground Activities. It provides a platform to Educate and Influence the society to Act more willingly against Climate Change.
Profile Credibility: The Certification is
not only a token of appreciation but proof of involvement. Participants can use these credits to build their profile. Such profiles always have a preference over those who do not contribute to such causes.
Benefits to Participants contd.
Greener Jobs: As the world population swells and
climate change puts increasing pressure on the environment, the need for knowledgeable professionals to mitigate damage to the air, land and sea increases as well. Careers in the environmental sector are expanding and market demand for environmental professionals is expected to exceed that of many other professions. The certification will help our participants to aspire for these jobs.
Learning to live an Environmental Friendly Life: The Ultimate reason to participate
in the program is to learn to take actions against climate change within the participant’s own capacity. Various techniques and activities make the participant learn the best way of living an environment friendly life.
