When Pedro travelled to Sikkim, he carried two bottles of drinking water, one for hot water and the other for normal. His children laughed at him, ‘Papa do you think we will not get to buy mineral water bottles there?’
It turned out that Sikkim had prohibited the sale of mineral water bottles as well as single-use plastic items. Pedro’s two reusable bottles turned out to be the wise thing to carry.
The Sikkim government was aligned the instruction of the union ministry of environment, forests and climate change. In other States of India, the growing garbage heap contains even small size single use mineral water bottles.
In the aftermath of Covid pandemic, most of us would carry our reusable bottles. But we are back to our careless, irresponsible actions. Why can’t we do our bit to reduce the plastic pile by choosing the reusable option?
Every day can be Environment Day
If we opt to walk the reusable way!
