Taking to Twitter, CM Khandu wrote, “It’s time to #BeatPlasticPollution. The #WorldEnvironmentDay2023 is significantly themed on tackling the growing menace of #plastic pollution. Let’s adopt Lifestyle for the Environment – LiFE – in its letter and spirit to save for our future generations. The Pakke Declaration is the testament of our resolve to retain the resilience of environment and fight #ClimateCrisis. I urge you all to supplement our green efforts and be responsible in matters of plastic. Your actions matter a lot and will make a difference too!”
Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio emphasized the three pillars of environmental sustainability: reduce, reuse, and recycle.

Nagaland Tourism Minister Temjen Imna Along also urged netizens to experience the pristine air of Nagaland rather than relying on air purifiers.
“Saaf hawa ke liye Air Purifier ki nahi, Nagaland ki taazi hawao ka anand le! No electricity consumption, Na koi Jhanjhat, Na koi Pareshyani. Only SUKOON! #WorldEnviromentDay #ExploreNagaland”, tweets Imna Along
Nagaland Deputy Chief Minister Yanthungo Patton stressed the importance of individual responsibility in safeguarding the environment.
