Some of the more uplifting messages and stories of the pandemic are that it has nudged the conscience of communities across, with groups of people recalibrating their aims and goals, asking themselves what really matters in life.

One such report in this paper focused on how a non-profit with its headquarters in Mahim is honouring our COVID-19 fighters. The organisation is planting trees in the name of COVID warriors. It has started modestly with three but plans to expand its programme this festive month. They have roped in Ganesh pandals which are downsizing the celebrations to plant at least one tree each. With thousands of pandals in the city, even if one tree is planted, it will make a huge difference to Mumbai.
