Plastic Bottle Recycling 2019-20

As an Environmentally Institution, we are always looking to make the environment more sustainable. In this effort, we found that V. Pillai Campus, Sector 15, New Panvel has two plastic bottle recycling units sponsored by Reliance Industries. Our students and teachers started collecting the plastic bottles for this purpose. We asked neighbours, friends, people in our neighbourhood and collected lot of these bottles. Few of our students had been to a Rotary Club for a competition and they collected the plastic bottles used there back to our college. Taking these bottles, few of our students and teachers reached our main campus and crushed the bottles. These bottles are reduced to fine pieces and they are then recycled to make stoles, bags, etc. We hope to continue this initiative for years to come.

Paper Bag Making 2019-20

David Attenborough says, “The truth is: The natural world is changing and we are totally dependent on that world. It provides our food, water and air. It is the most precious thing we have and we need to defend it”. It has been nearly 5 years since we started the paper bag making community work. Paper bags are made out of old newspapers and magazines and then stamped with an environment -friendly message along with our college logo. These bags are then given to our designated vendors who use them to sell small items, like sprouts, dried fish, etc.
