Tata Power’s nationwide energy and resource conservation movement, ‘ClubEnerji’, has launched Waste Management Module as a part of its resource conservation programme.
The resource conservation module lays strong emphasis on saving water, fuel, paper, and electricity, and has successfully imparted knowledge on fuel conservation, water management and energy conservation to lakhs of students.
The objective of the waste management module is to educate students about the repercussions of waste dumping on the environment, and its impact on the quality of soil, air and the ecosystem as a whole. The module aims to provide a platform to more than 2 lakh students to share and expand their understanding, thereby, bringing about a chain-reaction that can significantly reduce generation of waste and increase efficient waste management in the country.
Speaking on this initiative, Anil Sardana, Managing Director, Tata Power, stated, “Today’s youth are tomorrow’s decision makers, and it is vital to mobilise and educate them with the knowledge that will help bring about an important change. By mobilising the youth with the knowledge to effectively treat waste, Club Enerji aims to spread the message further to their families and reach out to the communities at large. The module also encourages students to form their own mini clubs in their societies to reach out to more citizens.”
