From the Bengaluru Rising Imaginarium to the campaign that secured the withdrawal of Karnataka&#8217;s proposed Parks Amendment, we see how collective action can protect the places we call home.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also look at how communities are turning their lived experiences into demands for accountability. In Delhi, residents and workers took evidence of extreme heat to the National Human Rights Commission. After four years of campaigning with communities and allies, India has recognised heatwaves as notified disasters, opening access to disaster response funds. This is a significant step towards protecting people from extreme heat, with the next challenge being to ensure resources reach those who need them. This is a significant collective victory, made possible by years of organising, community action, and thousands of people who continue to support us through independent donations.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From defending urban commons to demanding climate justice, these stories show what people can achieve when they come together to shape a greener, more just and peaceful future<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-india-stateless\/2026\/11\/c4defb52-3.26-witness-gpindia-d3.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Here<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<style data-wp-block-html=\"css\">\np {\n  text-align: justify;\n}\n<\/style>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What if the future isn\u2019t inevitable?
