BLive in collaboration with Rotary Club of Panjim Midtown and Isha Foundation organised a plastic clean-up drive at Divar Island. Members of the Rotary Club Panjim Midtown, students from Goa University (tourism department) and others rode for over 20 kms on BLive e-bikes from Old Goa Residency to Divar Island collecting plastic and waste material to amplify the message of Save Soil. Save Soil is a global movement launched by Sadhguru to save soil from extinction, and bring the necessary policies to address the catastrophic issue facing humanity. Talking about the initiative, Sandeep Mukherjee, Co-founder and COO at BLive said, “The 'Save Soil' effort saw various volunteers and Rotary Club members who rode electric cycles across the island of Divar and collected plastic garbage amounting to over 50 kilos. We believe that consistent efforts need to be taken to spread awareness about sustainable mobility and saving the environment to make the planet cleaner and greener.”
