Why Waste? is a team of like-minded youth who are taking water positivity to the world stage by means of innovative education and ideas that bring about systemic change. Why Waste? aims at changing the mindsets of people towards natural resources, specifically water and envision building a world of water conscious citizens. .
Our mission is to optimise the usage and prevent the wastage of water to tackle the global water crisis. We have volunteers leading this movement from countries across the globe over 4 different continents.
Our #GlassHalfFull movement to conserve water in restaurants went viral in 2019 and continues to have a massive positive impact on the industry thanks to our collaboration with the NRAI.
Why Waste? was recognised as an “Ashoka Youth Venture” in 2016.
In 2020, we became India’s largest youth-led movement(organisation) working towards water conservation and were named “Water Heros” by Republic TV in a collaborative initiative with the Govt of India (Ministry of Jal Shakti).
Why Waste? was founded by Garvita Gulhati in 2015 at the age of 15. For her work with Why Waste? and leading movements to inspire more young changemakers, Garvita was awarded the “Global Changemaker” title in 2018 and became an Ashoka Young Changemaker earlier in the same year. In 2019 she was awarded India’s Young Achiever by Yourstory media and in 2020 was named India’s Water Girl.
