2021 is on its way out. Oceans are rising faster than fuel prices and India is yet to christen a company as carbon neutral. While 4 Indian companies made it to the infamous list of top 100 businesses recording highest levels of carbon footprint (even the utterly disgraceful rank 1), organisations like GreenSutra have taken up the colossal task of changing the course of future by making recycling simpler.
Fashionable, rather.
The fashion industry globally, is popular for being the biggest polluter for messing up oceans, land and air in irreversible ways. While some fashion labels are slowly, like really slowly, switching to sustainable practices by opting for sustainable options, the plastic-rich market of women’s accessories is quietly churning out tons and tons of bright, shiny, crooked, flexible variants of plastic that looks great on your hair but will take thousands of years to disappear.
And definitely end up in your food as recent studies have shown that micro-plastics are already present within our food chain.
Greensutra is on a mission to reduce the negative impact of increasing carbon footprint and water pollution with sustainable, practical practices. Founder Dhvanil Vakharia and his team of earth saviours are a passionate bunch who love getting creative with innovative recycling methods to help companies lower their carbon footprint. Recently, the team set up a real-time plastic recycling booth at India’s most coveted fashion week and converted plastic bottles in to stunning accessories- LIVE!

Apart from creating runway worthy accessories, GreenSutra works closely with companies to develop innovative methods to minimise carbon footprint. The team also works round the clock to create some really cool utilities by recycling stuff like colourful coasters, lamps and decorative lighting. Dhvanil firmly believes that despite all efforts, India still have a long way to go in terms of adopting sustainable methods as currently there aren’t any companies that are truly carbon neutral.

GreenSutra is hopeful about helping the fashion industry minimise their environmental impact with creative recycling solutions as the team is proficient at handling all kinds of materials from plastic to e-waste. In Dhvanil’s words,
“We try to evaluate every possible environmental impact of a company before diving in to the solutions bit. Every brand, every industry functions differently and we try to help wherever we can with doable solutions that can be sustained over a long-term”
We can’t save the world overnight or undo the damage in a decade. The least we can do is take a tiny leap to the greener side and hope for a greener planet someday.
