Have you ever wondered how a simple idea can transform waste into a valuable resource? Meet Pavani, a visionary student from Vignana Bharathi Institute of Technology in Hyderabad, who turned curiosity into action. Inspired by her experiences in the college’s Eco Club, Pavani embarked on a mission to tackle India’s waste crisis. Witnessing the neglect towards waste segregation during a village outreach, she envisioned a solution: a user-friendly composter to convert organic waste into compost. Thus, in 2020, ‘Future Steps’ was born, co-founded by Pavani and her peers, Mahesh U and Siddhesh Sakore. Their home composting kit, priced affordably at Rs 3,500, swiftly gained traction across Telangana, Maharashtra, New Delhi, and Karnataka. The kit, complete with a special green mix powder, efficiently transforms kitchen waste into compost within just seven days, without the need for artificial heating. Pavani’s innovation not only addresses India’s mounting waste problem but also empowers individuals to actively participate in environmental sustainability. Despite facing scepticism, Pavani remains resolute in her commitment to creating a greener future, one compost kit at a time.

Role of Indian citizens and societies in clean India mission Swachh Bharat Abhiyan or Swachh Bharat Mission was launched in India in 2014 by honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Damodardas Modi with the tagline "one step towards cleanliness." Swachh Bharat, considered one of the most important cleanliness campaigns, strives to clean both rural and urban India's streets, highways, and infrastructure. Every individual bears responsibility for keeping the streets clean. The first small step people may take to contribute to the Swachh Bharat initiative is to carry a fabric bag or a recycled paper bag when they leave the house. The Swachh Bharat Mission is a large effort that, if carried out, has the potential to drastically alter both the country's view and citizen attitudes. Waste reduction, litter reduction, and pollution reduction will pave the path for a healthier and more productive state of mind. Netsol Water is a water and wastewater treatment company in Delhi NCR, India that designs, and manufactures ace machines to save the earth and its resources, especially water.

🚮 Embracing Cleanliness: The Essence of Swachh Bharat Abhiyan Cleanliness is not just a necessity; it's a mindset that reflects our values, discipline, and respect for our surroundings. The Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on October 2, 2014, aims to bring this mindset to every corner of India. Here’s why this mission is crucial for our nation: 🌟 Health Benefits A cleaner environment reduces the spread of diseases, promoting better public health. Proper sanitation and waste management are critical in preventing ailments like dengue, malaria, and cholera. 🌟 Economic Impact Cleanliness boosts tourism and fosters economic growth. Tourists are more likely to visit and invest in clean, well-maintained places, thereby generating revenue and creating jobs. 🌟 Environmental Sustainability Effective waste management practices, such as recycling and composting, minimize pollution and conserve natural resources. A clean environment supports biodiversity and combats climate change. 🌟 Community Empowerment Swachh Bharat Abhiyan empowers communities by encouraging collective efforts in maintaining cleanliness. It fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility among citizens, leading to sustainable change. 🌟 Aesthetic Appeal Clean surroundings enhance the beauty of our cities and villages. Well-maintained public spaces improve the quality of life and instill a sense of pride among residents. How Can We Contribute? Segregate Waste: Separate biodegradable and non-biodegradable waste at home. Avoid Single-Use Plastics: Opt for reusable items to reduce plastic waste. Participate in Clean-Up Drives: Join local groups and initiatives to clean public spaces. Educate Others: Spread awareness about the importance of cleanliness and sustainable practices. By embracing these habits, we can contribute to the success of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan and ensure a cleaner, healthier, and more prosperous India. Together, let's make cleanliness a way of life and create a #SwachhBharat for future generations! 🌍💚 #CleanIndia #SwachhBharatAbhiyan #Sustainability #PublicHealth #CommunityEngagement #EnvironmentalProtection

There are an estimated 35,000 waste pickers working informally in Bengaluru, India. These informal waste pickers sift through over 1,000 tons of recyclable material per day, equating to roughly a third of the city's generated waste. Despite playing a significant role in the city's maintenance, waste picking is viewed as dirty work and it's remunerated as such. Those fulfilling this vital role in the circular economy could be earning the equivalent of as little as $2.71-$3.62 per day. H&M Foundation launched the Saamuhika Shakti initiative in 2020 in order to build a holistic programme to promote inclusive circularity. TRANSFORM enterprises Hasiru Dala and Hasiru Dala Innovations have been amongst the impact-led businesses to help drive the transformative initiative forward on the ground in India. Get a taste of Saamuhika Shakti though this visual story Devex: https://bit.ly/3OLZchk #inclusivecircularity #circulareconomy #wastemanagement #wastepickers

🌱 From a Simple Idea to a Clean India: The Inspiring Journey of WeVOIS Labs Pvt. Ltd. 🌱 What started as a moment of frustration for Abhishek Gupta —seeing someone urinate on a wall despite nearby toilets— sparked a vision for a #cleaner, #greener #India. Teaming up with his friend Abhinav Shekhar Vashistha from #IIITJabalpur, Abhishek channeled this experience into creating WeVois, a revolutionary waste management startup. Abhishek, from Agra and Jaipur, and Abhinav, a tech enthusiast, were determined to address India’s waste management challenges. Initially, they developed an app to locate toilets and dustbins, but soon realized a bigger issue: the heaps of untreated waste choking our cities. In 2017, they founded WeVois with a mission to make a real difference. Despite numerous rejections and challenges, their unwavering determination led to a breakthrough in 2019. Today, WeVois operates in 15 cities, including #jaipur, #jodhpur, and #pali, achieving an impressive 90-95% #waste collection efficiency—far above the national average. Their innovative technology allows real-time tracking of waste collection vehicles, ensuring efficient and transparent operations. Starting with a small team, WeVois now handles 1,200 tons of waste daily and produces #compost from over 5,000 tons of wet waste, benefiting local farmers and reducing landfill burden. Financially, the company has grown from Rs. 3.16 crore in FY-20 to an anticipated Rs. 60-70 crore in FY-25. With over 1,300 sanitation workers and 210 operational staff, WeVois is set to expand to 250-300 cities in the next five years, aiming to create #zero-waste cities and position India as a #global #leader in #wastemanagement. WeVois is not just about managing waste; it’s about transforming lives. Many sanitation workers, once marginalized, now own homes and vehicles, thanks to fair wages and improved working conditions. Abhishek and Abhinav’s journey is a powerful reminder of how innovation and dedication can lead to meaningful change. 💡 Abhishek’s advice to aspiring entrepreneurs: "If you have an idea, start working on it immediately. Focus on solving problems that impact common people and aim to create a positive effect on society, the country, and the world. Avoid copying existing market ideas; instead, innovate and develop solutions that people need and that will provide significant benefits globally." 🌴🌳Let’s come together to support WeVois in their mission to make our cities cleaner and greener! 🌿💚 #cleanindia #sustainablefuture #wastemanagement #greenrevolution #startupjourney #naturelovers #ecofriendly #WeVois #inspiringchange #zerowaste #innovationforgood #transformingindia #environmentalImpact
