While walking down the streets of Kolkata, I spotted a boy who was nurturing plants grown in discarded plastic bottles along the walls of his own home and of his neighbours. The city Kolkata has very limited space for tree plantations along the road. This innovative method not only helps to plant trees but can also be a solution for plastic pollution which can lead to sustainable city habitat.
