Students from cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Jaipur and Durgapur have organized rallies, marathons, and exhibitions to spread the message of eco-sensitive entrepreneurship. Thousands took to the streets to educate people about sustainable living and the benefits of using eco-friendly products and services. Indore, a hotspot of the campaign, made effective use of its 95 public buses: Large flexes conveying the ills of energy wastage were placed on their rear windows, while batches of students hopped onto the buses and educated passengers about ecopreneurship and made them sign the E Week pledge.
Shubha Narayanan, NENas in-house blogger who is currently touring the country covering E Week, finds that interest in Green Entrepreneurship on Indiaas college campuses is at an all time high. Students are discussing, debating, and exploring the benefits and challenges of establishing green ventures. This week, Harish Hande, founder of SELCO, will discuss about bringing cost and energy-efficient products to rural India.
