A workshop teaches practical ways to usher in eco-friendly festivities

A workshop conducted by SKRAP in pre-pandemic times
India is one of the world’s largest producers of waste. The substantial use of plastic and non-biodegradable products has wreaked havoc on the environment, and the usage has not seen any notable reduction. SKRAP, a Mumbai-based sustainability firm offering sustainable and zero waste solutions to business and brands, will be organising a workshop tomorrow to help consumers combat wastefulness this festive season.
This workshop hopes to guide its attendees about the importance of sustainable and responsible consumption and also share quick and easy tips to adopt environmentally-conscious practices, especially in the festive season that is synonymous with excesses. “We have noticed that the consumption pattern and waste patterns skyrocket during this time. Considering there are multiple festivals coming in succession, we felt it would be beneficial to talk about sustainable practices. This will be done in a manner that is practical so as to weave it easily into daily life,” says organiser Shipra Agarwal.
