Great Nicobar S.O.S.
🌿 THEY'RE ABOUT TO COMMIT ECOLOGICAL MURDER — AND CALL IT "NATIONAL SECURITY."
The Indian government is bulldozing Great Nicobar Island — a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve older than civilization itself — for hotels, ports, and a township. Nearly 1 million trees will be felled. The only major nesting ground of the endangered Leatherback Turtle in the Indian Ocean? Gone. Ancient coral reefs that took millions of years to form? Dredged. The Shompen tribe — who have quietly called this island home for 10,000+ years — displaced without consent, in direct violation of the Forest Rights Act.
Over 70 scientists, ecologists, and genocide experts from 13 countries have warned this is irreversible. They've even used the word genocide.
The government's "national security" justification? Only 5% of the project is military. The remaining 95% is a commercial mega-hub worth ₹81,000 crore.
Science was pressured. Reports were suppressed. Public hearings were rigged.
I, Neel Patel, as an Indian citizen, refuse to stay silent.
The turtles can't speak. The Shompen are being ignored. The coral reefs can't vote.
So WE must be their voice.

Neel supported: SAVE THE NICOBARSNature is more than profit-the numerous species that reside there-wether flora or fauna, big or small matter ecologically. The sheer biodiversity present there cannot be stripped away as seen in other parts of India.
Mick supported: SAVE THE NICOBARSYou cannot breathe in Mumbai. We’re not gonna let that happen to the rest of India.
zenobia supported: SAVE THE NICOBARSThe proposed project threatens the survival of the indigenous Shompen and Nicobarese communities. I stand against the displacement of people for a destructive mega-project. #SaveNicobar
Vijay supported: SAVE THE NICOBARSThe Aravalli Range is not just India’s oldest mountain system; it is a silent guardian of the Indo-Gangetic Plains, holding back the desert for thousands of years. If the Aravallis fall, the desert will not wait, risking the loss of clean air, water, and all the other interlinked processes. Standing together before this irreplaceable legacy is lost.
ananya supported: Save Aravali: fight against Supreme Court rulingAravallis are not just hills on paper, they protect our air, water, and future. Redefining them to allow mining, puts an entire ecosystem at risk. I strongly urge the government to protect the Aravallis in their entirety.
