What a year 2021 has been! The pandemic, extreme weather events kept us isolated and made it a challenging year. But through it all, the resilience of humanity shone through. As we draw curtains on this eventful, stressful year that was filled with lessons on the climate crisis, we look back at the work we did together. Greenpeace India, with the unwavering support of its donors, volunteers, allies, citizens and staff worked through the crises in various aspects of the climate change campaigns – including responsive work during the testing second wave of COVID19 pandemic. Here is a throwback photoblog of some of the highlights of 2021. We could not have done it without YOU!<\/p>\n
