This Gurugram founder collects the hair salons throw away and turns it into water-cleaning mats that trap oil and pollutants from dirty drains; here’s how the unusual idea works https://t.co/ANQ7ZCa1jN via @timesofindia
Hair Matters program
Donate hair, Fur and fiber
You shampoo because hair collects oil. Through our charity, you can donate hair, fur and fleece clippings to soak up major oil spills and help keep storm drains and waterways clean.

✂️♻️ ¿Cabello para limpiar agua? Lo que normalmente termina en la basura puede ayudar a recuperar suelos.
@MatterOfTrust ya impulsa esta idea en #México 🇲🇽, en Xochimilco y Chapultepec 🌱💧.

What happens to my hair when you get it?
Matter of Trust uses hair/fur/fleece donations in several ways. Fibers are felted into mats on site, at partner hubs or they are stuffed into sheaths such as donated nylon stockings or burlap coffee bean bags to make booms.

Rahul Gupta saw a river-cleaning material. He's been collecting it, pressing it into mats, and dropping it into Gurugram's most polluted drains through his initiative, Kesakambali

The Benefits of Hair Mulch
With the Presidio Trust we began researching comparison plots of Hair Mulch, Chemical Fertilizer, Compost and Control plots. Again, everyone was stunned by the soil reaction to the hair mulch!

What are hair mats used for besides emergency oil spills? A lot!
Our hair mats and booms are urban water warriors, filtering and cleaning water in cities, airports, truck stops, and more. https://t.co/gKo9WvMGYW
