12 years of experience in sustainability, circular economy, advocacy, sustainability - and I feel we have a long way to go. Truy believe this is the decade of climate action, and each one of us need to do our part on community action. Waste management is a passion, and very prominently the need of the hour. I play an important role for enabling this in my current position at ProEarth. Talking to housing socities, citizens and to organisations, we're collectively addressing over 360 MT/month of different types of waste - ensuring it does not reach landfills.
