The programme was inaugurated on September 30 in the presence of Major General Sumit Rana, Meerut Cantonment, Mr K Ganesh, Director, Sustainability and Corporate Affairs, Bisleri International, and Dr Sanjaanaa Jon, Founder PACT & H2Omovement.
As part of the inaugural event, Bisleri unveiled recycled plastic benches and used plastic collection bins to show case post-consumer plastics can be made to useful product and promote circular economy.
Bisleri and H2OMovement teams conducted sessions with school students on water, plastic management, source segregation, four-bin segregation, and recycling.
Speaking at the event, Mr K Ganesh, Director – Sustainability and Corporate Affairs, Bisleri International, said, “Building a circular economy requires collective action by businesses, institutions and communities. Through Bottles for Change, we are focused on making responsible plastic management a part of everyday behaviour. Our collaboration with the Meerut Cantonment and H2OMovement gives us an opportunity to engage directly with students, families and the wider community, while demonstrating simple actions such as segregation at source that can make responsible waste management more effective.”
Major General Sumit Rana, Meerut Cantonment said, “Lasting change in waste management largely depends on informed and responsible participation. Our collaboration with Bisleri International and H2OMovement brings together institutions, families and young people to build greater awareness and encourage practices that can become part of everyday life at the Cantonment.”
Dr Sanjaanaa Jon, Founder PACT and H2Omovement explained, “The youth are not simply the leaders of tomorrow -they are the changemakers of today. From the world’s largest democracy, we have an extraordinary opportunity to mobilise millions of young voices around one of humanity’s most fundamental responsibilities: protecting water. Every drop we save is an investment in our collective future. Through the Bisleri H2OMovement and PACT, our mission is to take ‘Walk for Water, Walk for Life’ from a message into a people’s movement -connecting students, families, institutions and communities and inspiring them to become ambassadors for water, sustainability and responsible living. If we can inspire a generation to value every drop and take responsibility for the waste it creates, we can create change that travels from Meerut to India and from India to the world, taking sustainability into homes and communities.”
