In order to motivate and create environmental awareness among general public through Golu. I have chosen the following themes .
Brief:

Vertical Garden.
Use Solar Energy (renewable source of energy).
Vision – 2020 (Make in India)
Rainwater harvesting.
Windmill

Vertical Garden :-

Now a days people migrate from village to city, hence there is no sufficient space for gardening. In order to motivate go green policy a “VERTICAL GARDEN” arrangement is displayed (made out of used cool drinks bottles only) which will be very useful to utilize vertical space for gardening in apartments, flyovers and all other areas where ever possible to make out city Green.

Use Solar Energy :-

At present due to insufficient electric power, we are facing a lot of problems in our day to day life. To overcome these problems generation and use of solar energy in all most all areas even in villages also. (Named as Solar Village) those concepts are displayed in aesthetic manner to create awareness.

Vision – 2020 :-

Our former president Dr. A.P.J. AbdulKalam’s dreams, during the year 2020 his vision has to be full filled by us. i.e. – Monorail, Bullet train, digital India, Central monitoring, Make in India etc. are displayed (all exhibits are made by OWN)

Rainwater harvesting :-

Water scarcity is vital problem in all places of country. Easy method of collecting and storing the rain water at houses for drinking purpose is also displayed. (The same is implemented and used in my house for the past 10 years).

Windmill:-

Windmill can be another alternate to produce electric power like solar energy.
