JAKKUR PILOT

Endorsed by

Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA)

Our Community Mapathon identified 6,41,913 sqm potential across diverse Jakkur locations.

Divided strategically by function: lakes and canal buffers, parks, transport corridors, and GBA-owned barren lands.

Enables targeted CSR investments with measurable zone-specific impact.

What Your Zone Changes in Jakkur

Bangalore is already living the climate crisis: irregular monsoons, flash floods, toxic lakes, and AQI that often crosses 200, especially harming children and the elderly. One adopted zone in Jakkur becomes a working model for how Bengaluru can cool itself, clean its air and water, and move towards carbon neutrality by 2035.

This is not a symbolic plantation and development drive; it is a structured, measurable intervention that links climate science, community mapping, and long-term city planning.

IMPACT METRICS

Each Category you adopt contributes to:

Cooling the ward

Bamboo creates a local microclimate, reducing temperatures by 4–5 degrees Celsius in the areas where it is planted.

Storing and cleaning water

A single bamboo plant can hold up to 5,000 litres of water, helping recharge the groundwater table and stabilise soil around lakes, drains, and slopes.

Zone-level planting protects Jakkur’s lakes and stormwater channels from erosion and pollution.

Removing carbon and improving air quality

Each plant absorbs around 400 kg of CO₂ per year and releases about 300 kg of oxygen, while bamboo corridors can cut dust levels by 70–90%.
This directly supports people with respiratory vulnerabilities and reduces the urban heat island effect.

Protecting land and preventing damage

Rhizome roots hold topsoil together, preventing erosion and helping to heal degraded or vacant lands at Jakkur’s growth edges.

Supporting livelihoods and a green economy

Over time, bamboo from Jakkur feeds into a larger city-wide value chain—construction, products, and circular economy uses—creating green jobs and supporting small enterprises.
