Barking up the Right Tree
The New Indian Express Madurai
|December 28, 2025
When Cyclone Vardah tore through Chennai in 2016, it didn’t just flood homes and snap power lines.
It uprooted the city’s green lungs. Over 1.7 lakh trees were lost overnight. As roads lay blocked and neighbourhoods paralysed, volunteers stepped in to help the Chennai City Police clear debris and salvage what could still be saved. Among them was Krishnakumar S, founder of the NGO Thuvakkam, and his small team of green warriors.Krishnakumar is best known today for bringing Miyawaki forests into the heart of Indian cities.
