Revathi Kamath has been planting trees long before it became a cause. Her work spans lake bunds, school compounds, urban parks and forest fringes across Karnataka, always native, always sustained, always community-led.
"The trees we plant today are the shade our grandchildren will sit under. We plant not for ourselves but for the land that will outlive us all."Smt. Revathi Kamath
Every tree planted is native to Karnataka's soil, Peepal, Neem, Banyan, Honge, Arjuna and other species that have evolved with this land over centuries. No exotic imports. No shortcuts. Only trees the ecosystem already knows.
Lake bunds, school compounds, public spaces and residential areas across Mysuru and Bengaluru are being systematically greened. Every open patch of earth is an opportunity. Every sapling is a commitment to the next generation.
Community workshops, school programmes and citizen campaigns help people understand the direct connection between their choices and the health of their city's air, water and soil. Awareness is the first tree we plant.
An exotic tree looks green. But it does not feed the insects that feed the birds that sustain the ecosystem. Native trees are not just prettier, they are functional. They are part of a web of life that took thousands of years to evolve.
Revathi Kamath's plantation drives have always followed a strict rule: only trees that belong here. The Peepal that shelters bats. The Neem that medicines communities. The Banyan that roots an entire micro-ecosystem beneath its canopy.
This is not environmentalism as performance. This is restoration as responsibility.
