by ISKCON News, April 22 – Aligned with the world celebration of Earth Day 2022, ISKCON is launching a global environmental initiative to assist local temples, communities, and families in better ‘walking our talk” by living more environmentally conscious and sustainable lifestyles. “Many devotees think that because we’re strict vegetarians, we’ve done all we need to do for the environment,” said Shyamananda Krishna das (Dr. Sreenivasulu Chadalavada), an environmental scientist and Co-Director of the ISKCON Environmental Initiative (IEI). “There are many practical steps we need to adopt to practice what we preach about simple living and high thinking, ranging from banning single-use plastics, practicing recycling and conservation, energy conservation, wastewater management, and more,” he advises.
