Organization Description:

Green Climate is an NGO based in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, focused on environmental conservation, climate awareness, and community-based green action. Its flagship initiatives include large-scale tree-planting drives such as the campaign to plant 50 lakh saplings across Visakhapatnam, school and community education programs, coastal clean-ups, and advocacy with local government on urban greening and pollution control.

Role in Indian Shrimp Aquaculture: Green Climate's geographic base is in the heart of India's shrimp-producing corridor, where aquaculture is linked to mangrove loss, coastal pollution, and water-resource pressure. The organisation can contribute by mobilising community awareness around environmental impacts of shrimp farming, supporting mangrove restoration in areas affected by pond expansion, and partnering on clean-up and education activities in shrimp farming communities.
