Have you heard the opinion that Electric Vehicles 🚗 might simply be a way to shift pollution to the other side of the globe? Let’s explore what’s happening on the opposite side of the Earth from Dubai. The point at 25.28°S latitude and 124.70°W longitude takes us to the southern Pacific Ocean, relatively close to the coast of Chile and South America: Impact startups in this region: 1. Ecoalf (Chile): Fashion and accessories made from recycled materials, such as plastic bottles and fishing nets. Promoting sustainable consumption and raising environmental awareness. 2. Karma (Brazil): A platform that connects farmers producing organic products with consumers. 3. Tierra Nueva (Colombia): Solutions for sustainable agriculture, including the implementation of organic methods and the creation of cooperatives to support local farmers. 4. Chocoramo (Argentina): A project for producing chocolate from organic cocoa grown with sustainable practices. 5. Pura Vida (Peru): Recycling plastic waste into building materials. Greetings to these startups from Dubai! It would be interesting to learn about recycling challenges in Chile and other Latin American countries.  Perhaps there are common issues, and the Initiative Impactors could help find solutions! #weimpactors #impactors #recycling #zerowaste #ecofriendly #sustainability #climatechange #gogreen #plasticfree #environment #earthday #greenliving #ecoliving #reducewaste #savetheplanet #greenenergy #ecowarrior

Did you know that 40% of Canadians throw away food past its Best Before date at least once a week? We are on a mission to change that! Unlike expiration dates, Best Before dates indicate quality and freshness. Properly stored items are often still good past their date. Remember to look, smell, and taste to assess if they’re still safe to eat. We're proud to partner with Too Good To Go in their #LookSmellTaste campaign to reduce food waste and contribute to a more sustainable world. 👉 Learn more about the initiative: https://bit.ly/3RHViI4 #TooGoodToGo #Chocolate #BarryCallebaut #Sustainability #ZeroWaste

Interesting storytelling based on realistic facts.

FMCG is pushing toward a sustainable tomorrow #Day18 of 90, covering FMCG In recent years, the industry has been going under transformational change and moving towards sustainable practices. Rising concerns such as climate change, resource depletion, and environmental degradation have spurred a heightened awareness among consumers. Here are some ways the leading FMCG players have appointed some sustainable strategies 📑 Heat Recovery System (HRS): HRS with a capacity of 95 tons of refrigerators can be installed on chimneys to utilize fryer vapors and effectively recover waste for productive use. This system also eliminates harmful gases. 📑Anaerobic Effluent Treatment: These systems help to treat wastewater and produce biogas as a byproduct. By utilizing compost derived from organic waste, FMCG can reduce their dependency on chemical fertilizers. 📑Clean Fuel System: Using Piped Natural Gas (PNG) for backup power and solar energy helps to reduce carbon emissions. 📑Compost Machines: These machines help to convert organic waste, such as potato peels and kitchen wet waste, into compost. This compost serves as a valuable resource for soil enhancement and healthy plant growth. 📑Solar Power: By installing solar panels, it is possible to generate an impressive 2000-2500 units of electricity every day. This helps in reducing dependence on thermal electricity. FMCG companies are committed to sustainability, using eco-friendly practices and inspiring others to do the same. Together, they're building a greener future for all. What are your thoughts on this??

Innocence is powerful too. This fantastic #EarthDay campaign film for Britannia by Talented.Agency proves that. Time for some truth bomb with data on plastic waste and why more awareness is needed. India generates about 3.4 million tonnes (MT) of plastic waste annually, but only 30% of this is recycled.* The world produces around 350 million metric tons of plastic waste each year, which is equivalent to more than 10 million garbage trucks.** If every one of us starts making small everyday contributions to reduce plastic waste, imagine what we collectively as a country of 1.44 Bn can achieve. Easier said than done right. Hence the need for everyday habits and not just monthly or yearly clean-the-street drives. 🧹 The right brand communication can indeed have an impact on influencing people to adopt new habits or should I say the Right habits.

India generates ~3.4 million tonnes of plastic waste, only ~12% of which is processed⁽¹⁾. Choosing to play a part in that 12% is Britannia, who has not only been 100% plastic neutral for over 2 years now, but is actively reducing their footprint across their operations⁽²⁾. Britannia cannot do it alone, any more than you or I can. Recognising this, #HarPocketAbDustbin is Talented’s attempt at compounding the effect of an everyday effort through the eyes of 8 year old Ruhi. Made with love in collaboration with 1. Director Gajraj Rao and the team from CodeRed Films. 2. Britannia Industries Limited who courageously made a film featuring zero products, just their own waste (Amit Doshi, Shree Das, Archana Balaraman, Prabakaran Kandan) 3.

As part of the Plastic Reality Project 2024, and our commitment to enhancing pet health and protecting our planet, two of our dedicated team, Kerry Doble and Louise Kidby, are heading to India with rePurpose Global on a week-long mission to tackle plastic waste and support impactful environmental projects. During their visit, Kerry and Louise will visit two projects in India to witness the reality of plastic leakage into the environment, learn about waste management and help clean up plastic waste and improve local environments.   𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐏𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐯𝐚𝐭 (𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠: 𝐒𝐚𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐌𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧) - 𝐋𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐃𝐞𝐡𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐧, 𝐔𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐤𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐝. A city at the foothills of the Himalayas has seen its environment devastated by plastic pollution due to rapid urbanisation and tourism. This project seeks to tackle these issues by establishing holistic waste management to ensure plastic waste is ethically collected and responsibly recycled.    𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐚 𝐊𝐚𝐥 (𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠: 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐓𝐨𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐰) – 𝐋𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐊𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐚. On India's west coast, with 360 miles of coastline and natural beauty, the state attracts 4 million tourists annually. Yet over 70% of plastic waste ends up in the ocean. Project Hara Kal is rePurpose Global's largest initiative, improving waste management in remote coastal villages. It collaborates with a local women's group to fund training and jobs, boosting their earnings.   Stay tuned for updates from India as we continue to work towards a cleaner, greener future for our planet and the pets we cherish.   #plasticrealityproject #YuMOVE #repurposeglobal #PlasticWaste #EnvironmentalImpact #TeamWork #GlobalPartnership

Lession on Sustainable Practices from Panchayat- In Season 3, Episode 8 (16:28) of the series "Panchayat", we see an environmentally conscious detail: a village council meeting where steel glasses and a steel jug are used instead of single-use plastic bottles. This simple yet powerful scene sends a clear message about the importance of reducing single-use plastics in our daily lives and how such practices are followed in rural India.  In many government and administrative meetings, we often see the prevalence of single-use plastic bottles. By switching to reusable options like steel/brass glasses and jugs, we can significantly cut down on plastic waste and promote a more sustainable lifestyle. It's time for this practice to be made mandatory across all government offices in India. Gradually, we can encourage private offices, educational institutions, and other organizations to adopt similar practices, paving the way for a cleaner and greener future. Let's take inspiration from #Panchayat and start making these small changes in our own lives and workplaces. Together, we can make a big difference. #GenerationRestoration United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) Ministry of Environment, Forests & Climate Change, Government of India Climate Action Network International #worldenvironmentday
