The Story in Brief
Cloud and data centre company ESDS Software Solution has planted 20,000 trees at Varvandi near Nashik, its largest annual plantation drive. It has assigned a full-time team to protect and maintain the site around the clock for the next five years.
The company said the project aims to build a self-sustaining green ecosystem. ESDS cited its Ramsej plantation model, where 35,000 saplings grew into a forest of nearly 100,000 trees after sustained protection. Founder and managing director Piyush Somani said land protection and sapling care are needed to create forests. Director Komal Somani described the effort as part of the company’s longer-term sustainability work.
The Indian Opinion
Corporate plantation drives often invite two lazy claims: that planting a large number of saplings automatically creates a forest, or that such projects are mere publicity. Neither conclusion follows yet. Survival over five years, water use, local participation and the eventual tree count matter more than the launch figure. ESDS has made a measurable protection pledge, and its Ramsej record offers a comparison. The first useful check will be how many of the 20,000 saplings survive each year.
