Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Tulsi Tanti, Chairman, Suzlon Group said, The well-being of humanity, the environment and the functioning of the economy depends upon the responsible management of the planets natural resources. And yet, evidence is building that people are consuming far more natural resources than what the planet can sustainably provide. We all need to preserve our today for a brighter tomorrow. Choosing to make a sustainable tomorrow and environment conservation forms the core of our business model.

I firmly believe that responsible usage of our natural resources is the only way to achieve sustainability.
