Build a plastic-free world for the future generation.

The project’s impact is multifunctional, significantly improving recycling habits and reducing single-use plastic usage by 58% and 54%, respectively. Participants were educated about the detrimental effects of climate change and plastic pollution, leading to a change in waste disposal behaviors. Previously, the lack of waste bins resulted in indiscriminate dumping; however, after the installation of wooden waste bins, individuals now properly dispose of plastic items, helping to prevent waterlogging during the rainy season. Additionally, household waste, which was once discarded haphazardly, is now collected by city corporation waste collectors at an affordable rate. The cloth bags produced for this initiative are sourced from local vendors, transforming unused fabric into functional items and promoting environmental sustainability. A social media campaign was launched to showcase these efforts, inspiring others to adopt eco-friendly practices, while a short film on plastic awareness reached diverse audiences, effectively raising awareness across the country.
