Independence Day

Thursday, August 15th, 2013
Happy Independence Day

Happy Independence Day

We’d like to reiterate our thoughts on the significance of Independence Day…

A salute to all those who participated in the movement to make India Independent. And to all those unsung heroes across the country who have since then contributed in myriad forms to making this a more equitable , fair , liveable , joyous , progressive nation than it would have otherwise been.

What is the significance of Independence Day in present day urban India ? For the generations that have been born and raised in an independent India ? Newspapers filled with pictures of celebrities wearing clothes that have shades of the tri-color , saying what it means to be Indian . Buying little flags at the traffic signals and putting them in one’s car or desk for a few days. Participating in flag hoisting ceremony in one’s residential building or company. A few moments of solemn silence as the anthem is played followed by snacks and catching up with neighbors . What is the connection that the rituals build with the idea of a nation ? of the idea of being Indian ? The risk is when the sentiment is limited to a few external gestures.

We can create new , meaningful rituals for Independence Day – as individuals and as groups :
- Recognize that our actions – personal and professional – shape India . If there is allegiance to the idea of a nation to which we pledge our devotion – let it reflect in consistent action.
- Make life choices – small and big – that are authentic and deeply meaningful rather than driven by external appearances / compulsions aka Inner Independence
- Give time , attention , money to those less fortunate
- Help educate a child
- Consciously choose not to litter any public space – e v e r.
- Plant trees
- Become an a c t i v e citizen
-
-
- the list can be meaningfully expanded
Eventually we need to rise above the idea of nations and see the human species as one . Until that can happen we can attempt an expansive and inclusive definition of what it means to be Indian . And be cognizant of our responsibilities and rights the other 364 days of the year.

Pl choose to create a glorious India where Independence is a reality for all it’s citizens .

Happy Independence Day.

Pl choose to make a difference.

There are several eco-businesses all across India started by entrepreneurs wanting to catalyze a sustainable world . Combined effort by way of shared platform will help to create a stronger impact in society.

Together, we make a difference which is powerful and strong enough to create a change in the world.

Corporate Gifting – Green Gifting solutions

Friday, April 26th, 2013

Everyone was present in the main conference area. At the front was Mr. Prabhu standing shly beside the CEO and the Head of HR. The veteran employees were looking at them proudly, remembering the time when they were in Mr. Prabhu’s position while the new comers stared in awe and inspiration. It was the Employee of the Month ceremony at one of India’s prominent refineries. The HR manager gave a brief on Prabhu’s achievements and why he had been chosen among several other candidates for the award. Finally, with all eyes fixed on the duo, the CEO presented him with a sleek and stylish vintage grey bag, which held a trophy and an Employee of the Month certificate. With the smart Tote Officiel in his right and the certificate in the left hand, he proudly looked into the audience and simply said, “Thank you.”

As the Forum came to a close and the MD gave his acknowledgement speech, the employees stood by the gate with the black bags all set to be distributed. These smart Totes with their attractive graphical prints, were to be given to all the participants of the Summit as a souvenir. Attracted by its sophistication, these bags appealed to one and all and everyone made it a point to collect one before they exited. The Totes’ USP was they were 100% environment friendly and had versatile uses; creating an image just the right CSR image for the IT based company that would stick even months after the Summit.

The Tote Pal Tale

Saturday, March 9th, 2013

Words enable worlds. This is a true story of how words can open up new perspective and possibilities.

Once a teenager on her way to her college exam was anxious and trembling with nervousness. She had her Tote Pal with the words  “Miracles come in Moments. Be Ready and Willing” along with her in which she carried her belongings. Just as she approached the gate, where her equally nervous friend was waiting for her, she needed to grab her notes from the bag. Her friend saw the quote on the bag and broke into a big smile. She pointed out and said “Hey! See what your bag has to say.” Both kids had a surge of confidence as they walked through the gate to enter the examination building.

 No doubt the girls had prepared well and had put in their 100% efforts towards their examinations. But every now and then people need that tad bit of encouragement to push them towards success.

The Tote Pal quotes are our 1% inspiration to your 99% perspiration. Just as in the case of the teenagers they have been there as a true Pal  for many people – inspiring them as they in turn use the Tote Pal to create a more sustainable world.

Experiences like these from the Clean Planet community warm our hearts and encourage us to serve the community better. It’s inspiring for us to know that our creations of love and conviction are reaching out and making a difference way beyond the functional and style aspect of the product.

We would like to share your story as well. Please write into us with your Clean Planet Story. Our contact details are –
