"If we start buying more organic products even for the household which are less harmful, it makes a huge difference."
Kalki, who has featured in Dev.D, Shaitan, Shanghai and Margarita with a Straw, says families are like "mini countries with mini politics".
"If you cannot figure out stuff in your family, don't expect figuring out stuff in your country and the rest of the world," she said.
The actress also praised Blue Planet II: One Ocean and The Deep. Narrated by ace British broadcaster and naturalist David Attenborough, "Blue Planet II" released in 48 PVR screens in 22 cities on May 18.
