Mother Earth is the creator for each and every resource that could ever be required to sustain life. Eco friendly initiatives are the oxygen for this however exhaustible resource-rich mine. The primary objective of such groups is to utilise Earth’s resources judiciously and simultaneously conserve the legacy of Earth. Dharini provides a platform to artisans to showcase their talent and simultaneously revive the dying indigenous traditional crafts. Moreover, it takes the onus of converting Earth’s material into utility products without playing havoc with its originality. The most important prerequisite for a picnic is a picnic basket also called a picnic hamper. The utility of this product is to hold food and tableware for a picnic meal. Before the advent of plastic, picnic baskets in India were made of wicker, but soon plastic emerged as a favourite. This material was doomed because of its non-existent eco friendliness. Working towards a more eco-friendly environment and the love for M...

Say No to Plastic! But Why? The importance and recognition of healthy living is growing exponentially. Our bodies are a temple they say, and correctly so. We buy the least fatty of oils, consume the most nutritious of veggies, and indulge in the most rigorous of workouts, and yet we may fall short of the health standards we aspire to attain. Oblivious to the repercussions, we surround ourselves by a sea of plastic products: from dining table mats, to baskets, bins, bags, boxes and cutlery. Let’s be fair though, it isn’t exactly brand new information that plastic can be immensely harmful to humans. It is common knowledge that prolonged plastic usage can trigger chronic diseases like cancer. It can even infuse your food with chemicals which if ingested for prolonged periods can lead to serious health effects. Yet somehow we are unable to rid ourselves of its incessant consumption, plastic seems like the most convenient and easily available choice to most. However, it is time we started p...

We have today reached a stage where we are surrounded by plastic in its different forms. Owing to its ability to be moulded in any form desirable and the fact that it is one of the cheapest materials available, plastic has today crept into every household in the form of bags, bottles, toys, packaging, furniture, baskets and what not. However this excessive usage of plastic is highly detrimental to mankind. Most plastic is Non- biodegradable. Over 50% of plastic is never reused or recycled. Almost 8 million metric tons of plastic ends up in the ocean every year choking the fragile marine eco system. Time has thus come for us to reduce our dependence on plastic and replace it with more eco-friendly and sustainable options.
