Indian weddings are magical. They are loud, emotional, colourful, and deeply rooted in tradition. They are also, unfortunately, one of the most resource-intensive events we host. From single-use décor to food wastage to plastic bottles piling up overnight, one wedding can generate more waste than a household does in months. The good news is this. Sustainable weddings in India are no longer a niche idea. They are practical, achievable, and often far more meaningful. Across rec

In 2026, corporate sustainability in India is hitting a pivotal moment. ESG reporting is no longer a “nice-to-have” or just a CSR checkbox; it’s a core business requirement. SEBI’s BRSR Core framework now mandates reporting for the top 250 listed companies, and this is only the beginning. Companies must collect, manage, and report data across their entire value chain, including suppliers and downstream partners contributing 2% or more to purchases or sales. This change signal

Waste is something everyone generates daily, at home, work, weddings, sports events, and birthdays. Yet many still pause when asked, what’s the difference between dry waste and wet waste? This confusion makes waste segregation one of India’s biggest sustainability challenges. India produces over 62 million tonnes of municipal waste annually, 70–80% of which is wet waste.

By 2026, Indian companies will be evaluated not just on profits, but on how responsibly they operate, how transparently they report, and how seriously they address environmental, social, and governance risks. SEBI has made its intent clear. ESG disclosures are set to expand to nearly 1,000 listed companie

Urban areas in India are not bustling but also shrouded in smog. Delhi, Mumbai, Lucknow, and a number of cities regularly appear among the globe’s top polluted metropolitan areas with PM2.5 concentrations reaching 8–10 times the recommended safe thresholds. This serves as a prompt that immediate nature-based interventions are essential. Here’s the bright side of that: A global analysis suggests that city trees remove more than 700,000 metric tons of air pollution each year. N

India is stepping into a new phase of climate responsibility. Trees have officially moved from “good-to-have” to “must-have.” With the Ministry of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change rolling out the India Green Credit Programme, companies can now turn scientifically verified plantations into measurable environmental credits they can actually count. The timing couldn’t be more urgent. India loses around 1.6 million hectares of tree cover every decade (Global Forest Watch).
