Burn Calories not Plastic

Meet Sivanesan B, an Islander who is a volunteer for Walk for Plastic (Environmental Conservation Organisation by Gowtham B).
With support of Mr Avinash and Mr Uma from PBMC, he and his team of volunteers have collected 200kgs of plastic in 16 drives

[SwachhAndaman&Nicobar @Swachhandaman]

Trash comes to Andamans from many neighbouring countries such as Korea, China, Indonesia, Thailand etc. PBMC workers fighting this endless onslaught in the middle of the afternoon, at Corbyns Cove in Port Blair.

More than 200 MT of plastic processed! The Andaman and Nicobar administration's decision to implement EPR is already showing results.

@KandoiAyush @ChetanSanghi A system has already been created wherein waste from rural areas will come to Port Blair to be handed over to a recycler/ transporter. Swaraj Dweep (Havelock)Shaheed Dweep (Neil) and Wandoor already following it. More and more rural areas are in the process of doing the same.

[SwachhAndaman&Nicobar @Swachhandaman]

Campbell bay, located in the southernmost part of India, has started source segregation and collection.

Only now can India say that the furthest tips of it are also beginning to manage their waste and are making India a truly Swacch and Swasth India!!!

SUSTAINABLE!!!

Swaraj Dweep (Havelock) has demonstrated that this waste management system is not temporary or flimsy. It simply keeps getting better.

Who would've thought a year ago that waste from all hotels and beaches on this island could be systematically recycled?

[Directorate of RD, PRIs & ULBs, A & N Islands @dir_rdpris]

A lot of 1500 kg bailed plastic transported from Swaraj Dweep to Port Blair.

And while the rest of India says dry waste and wet waste, Andamans are a step ahead! We mandate source segregation in a minimum of three categories, wet, dry and hazardous.

When good efforts make the seemingly impossible possible.
Swaraj Dweep (Havelock) sends out waste for recycling. It goes to Port Blair and then mainland India.
Kudos to panchayat and Directorate of Rural Development for this fantastic initiative!

[Directorate of RD, PRIs & ULBs, A & N Islands @dir_rdpris]

Nearly 600 Kgs Plastic Waste being transported out of SwarajDweep Island.

Great efforts by the local GPs in making the Island Plastic Free.

Banning is important, but so is providing an alternative!

Our first rural Solid Waste Management (SWM)Cluster has just been inaugurated at Netaji Nagar, Little Andaman!

Segregated waste from Netaji Nagar will be bailed/shredded and packed and sent off to mainland for recycling!

@NitikaPawar25

[SwachhAndaman&Nicobar @Swachhandaman]

How does waste come from Shaheed Dweep (Neil) to Port Blair?
Like this. Bailed and packed.
Only times when looking at plastic makes you happy!
