Sona Sharma is a climate change warrior. When she discovers the devastating impact of climate change on our planet at school, she is deeply concerned that not enough is being done to address this urgent issue. Determined to make a difference, Sona takes matters into her own hands. However, her father, Appa, is not amused when she throws out her baby sister's diapers and her brother, Thatha, is not pleased when she instructs him to discard his color-coded plastic files.

Further disheartening, Sona learns that many of the beautiful kolams, the traditional art that people draw in front of their homes to celebrate the winter months and the festival season, are not organic. This realization fuels her determination to bring about significant change.

Sona rallies her family and friends, spreading awareness about the importance of eco-friendly practices and the harmful effects of non-organic materials. She encourages them to adopt sustainable habits, such as using reusable bags and containers and reducing their carbon footprint.

With unwavering passion, Sona sets out to create a kolam revolution. She organizes workshops where people learn the art of making organic kolams using natural materials like rice flour, vegetables, and natural dyes. She also works with local communities to promote the use of organic kolams, emphasizing their cultural significance and environmental benefits.

Sona's efforts are not without challenges. Some people resist her changes, viewing them as a threat to their traditions and customs. However, Sona remains steadfast in her mission, using her persuasive skills and unwavering determination to convince others of the importance of eco-consciousness.

Over time, Sona's efforts begin to bear fruit. People start to appreciate the beauty and sustainability of organic kolams. The traditional art form becomes a symbol of hope and change, inspiring others to adopt eco-friendly practices in their daily lives.

Sona's story serves as a reminder that even young individuals can make a significant impact on climate change. It shows that by taking action and spreading awareness, we can create a better future for ourselves and future generations. Sona Sharma's journey is a testament to the power of individual action and the importance of working together to combat the climate crisis.
