The Problem
The Plastic Pollution Threat
Bego's Mon, a popular picnic destination along the Damodar River, faced a significant environmental threat from single-use plastics. During peak seasons (December-January), the influx of visitors led to substantial accumulation of plastic bags, bottles, and packaging waste, posing a serious risk to the river ecosystem.
Our Objectives
Eliminate single-use plastics in the designated area.
Cultivate environmental responsibility.
Develop a model eco-friendly zone.
Outcomes
Impact & Results
Since 2015, we have observed a visible reduction in plastic waste. Regular monitoring and partnerships with the Panchayat have created a shared sense of ownership among locals.
