HARITHA MADHAVAM

Situated in the lush green and fertile lands of Upper Kuttannadu region, T. K. Madhava Memorial College has a long and enduring relationship with nature. Around 20 % of the 25-acre campus is occupied by buildings, the rest of the campus are categorized as playgrounds, quadrangles, lawns and gardens. A huge area is left in its natural form and acts as a natural habitat for biodiversity and a large variety of species of grasses, herbs, shrubs and trees. TKMMC places a combined impetus on education and environmental-friendly practices to promote sustainable and eco-friendly practices in the campus. The college adheres to the GREEN PROTOCOL executed by the Government of Kerala to collaborate with Swatch Bharath Abhiyan.
The green campus initiatives of our college, fondly called Harithamadhavam, are monitored by a Green Protocol Cell, which is headed by Dr. Vinod Haridas, HoD, Department of Botany. Harithamadhavam aims at redefining our environmental culture and developing new paradigms by creating sustainable solutions to environmental, social and economic needs of the students and staff. It is all about sweeping away wasteful inefficiencies and using conventional sources of energies for its daily power needs, correct disposal handling, purchase of eco-friendly supplies and effective recycling program. The workings of the green initiatives can be abridged in the slogan – “Join the green drive”.
