At a time when the world is putting its best foot forward to protect and conserve the environment and the greenery, Mumbai is struggling to conserve and protect its Aarey Forest from the act of deforestation.
Several celebrities had openly expressed their displeasure for the cutting down of the forest, and actress Shraddha Kapoor had even joined in the mass protest physically.
However, seems like all has gone in vain, as today, late in the middle of the night, the Aarey forest trees were chopped down, which naturally has drawn flak from several people including celebrities like Farhan Akhtar, Dia Mirza and Vishal Dadlani. See what they have to say –
400 trees have been cut in the dead of the night. As citizens sang and joined hands in unity pleading to STOP this massacre. Can’t you see they are UNITED by love!?! Love for nature. Love for our children and our future. #Aarey #ClimateAction #ActNow #ChangeIsComing pic.twitter.com/7XCwSeaqDT

Cutting trees at night is a pathetic attempt at trying to get away with something even those doing it know is wrong. #Aarey #GreenIsGold #Mumbai
