Kolkata NGO Launches Climate Ambassador Program
On April 2, 2026, Kolkata-based NGO SHER, in partnership with Scottish Church College and TERI School of Advanced Studies, hosted a one-day "Knowing Climate Change" workshop attended by representatives from 28 schools. The event launched a Climate Ambassador Program, distributed Ratul Ghosh's booklet "Anthropocene", and featured sessions on urban resilience and AI/ML applications—LLMs and physics-informed models—for species and mangrove detection, aiming to spur school-level action.
