If you thought you cannot do without plastic packaging, a Thane-based youth group promises to prove you wrong through a zero-waste shopping tour at the famous Jambli Naka tomorrow

Participants will also get to see plastic-free brooms and baskets in the market at Jambli Naka
About 40 per cent of the plastic produced in the world is dedicated to packaging. And global plastic production has only shot up over the years - 44 per cent of all plastic ever manufactured has been made in the last two decades. To say that plastic use and the pollution caused by it is a threat to humanity, now seems like an understatement. And it is about time to eradicate our notions of how convenient and durable it is as a material, as an excuse to consider sustainability. If you don’t know how and where to start, a zero-waste shopping tour led by a Thane-based youth group Muse Foundation will show you how.
