The concept of ‘Lifestyle for the Environment (LiFE)' was introduced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at COP26 in Glasgow on 1st November 2021, urging the global community of individuals and institutions to make LiFE a global movement of “mindful and deliberate consumption, rather than mindless and destructive consumption” in order to protect the environment. As part of LiFE, everyone has the responsibility to live a life that enhances and protects the planet. Those who live in harmony with the planet are recognized as Pro Planet People.

5th Day Action: Practice segregation of dry and wet waste at homes

Do you know?

a. About 50% of household waste can be composted
b. Food scraps and yard waste together currently make up more than 30 percent of what we throw away, and could be composted instead. Making compost keeps these materials out of landfills where they take up space and release methane, a potent greenhouse gas.

Citizens are invited to share their photographs while performing each action.

Last Date of submission is 5th November 2022.
