This World Environment Day, Kolkata transformed a tram into a powerful symbol of climate action, uniting diverse groups including students, NGO volunteers, and tram advocates. The decorated tram, which rolled through the city, represented a commitment to sustainability and eco-friendly transport. Dr. Debasish Bhattacharyya, President of the Calcutta Tram Users Association (CTUA), highlighted the tram's benefits, stating it draws power without producing toxic waste, unlike electric vehicles reliant on lithium-ion batteries. Activists like Pradeep Kakkar challenged the narrative that trams impede traffic, citing a lack of evidence in response to their RTI request. The initiative also featured artistic elements made from reused materials, showcasing creativity and environmental consciousness. Community members expressed the importance of preserving trams, which offer economical and sustainable transport, especially for senior citizens. The event not only raised awareness about climate issues but also aimed to engage the younger generation in advocating for public transport solutions.
