We were delighted to attend the India Plastics Pact Third Annual Conference at Le Méridien, New Delhi. We had the opportunity to share our views on packaging reuse and how it can be a transformative strategy to reduce plastic waste and fulfill Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) obligations. Sharing dais with leaders from Pidilite Industries Limited Bisleri International Pvt Ltd, Hasiru Dala Banyan Group Nation is indeed an honor. Hearing insights from industry leaders and discussing the role of reuse models in tackling plastic pollution was both inspiring and motivating. Thank you to the @India Plastics Pact for bringing together such a diverse and insightful group of stakeholders. Together, we can advance the circular economy and drive meaningful change. #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #PackagingReuse #PlasticWasteReduction #EPR #IndiaPlasticsPact #3RSolutions #Innovation #SustainableBusiness

As we have seen, the GHG accounting and reporting play a crucial role in business sustainability due to the contribution it makes in tackling the climate change. The companies are encouraged to set up ambitious climate targets in terms of GHG emission reductions, and put in place their best strategies to achieve them. Recognizing this, to guide the companies in setting up climate targets that are aligned with the climate science, Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) was launched. SBTi is a global body and a collaboration between CDP, the United Nations Global Compact, World Resources Institute (WRI), and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). SBTi provides the companies with a framework to set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets and ensures that the targets align with the goals of the Paris Agreement. Under SBTi, the companies first need to make public commitment of setting up the emission targets. Thereafter, they are required to develop the targets following the SBTi criteria which are validated by SBTi. After the approval of the targets, the companies start implementing the measures to achieve the targets and need to publicly communicate the targets and progress. In this way, SBTi is playing an important role in ensuring public accountability of the climate targets.

Packaging reuse is a critical part of our efforts to tackle plastic pollution and advance the circular economy, and we’re proud to have Rahul Juware sharing these insights with industry leaders. IFAT India #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #PlasticPollution #PackagingReuse #IFATMumbai
Date: 16 October 2024 Location: Bombay Exhibition Center, Mumbai Time: 4.30 PM Earlier this year I attended IFAT at Munich, Germany to learn about technologies in waste management and also showcase our packaging reuse solution 3R Solutions! IFAT is now happening in India organized by Messe München India. Really happy to join a panel to explore Upstream and Downstream Solutions to Plastic Pollution. I’ll also be sharing insights from our ongoing work at Social Lab Environmental Solutions, where we focus on packaging reuse as a key strategy in reducing plastic waste and advancing circular economy practices. If you’re attending IFAT or interested in solutions for tackling plastic pollution and promoting sustainability, I’d love to connect and exchange ideas! #IFATMumbai #CircularEconomy #PlasticPollution #PackagingReuse #Sustainability #CleanerRivers #CleanSeas #WasteManagement

In our previous post, we highlighted the importance of Sustainability Reporting and covered the national framework of BRSR Reporting. Today, we present the global framework of GRI Reporting which is overarching and covers all relevant sectors and topics. There are 3 types of GRI standards namely Universal standards, Sector standards and Topic standards. The universal standards apply to all the companies, while the sector and topic standards apply only to the concerned sector and topics chosen for reporting. The process of GRI reporting broadly encompasses review of relevant standards, stakeholder engagement, identification of material topics, ESG data collection and report preparation. Stay tuned for more insights! #TSBSeries #ESG #ClimateChange #BusinessSustainability #CorporateSustainability #CBAM #GHGAccounting

Sustainability Reporting is one of the most important facets of Corporate Sustainability. It entails reporting the sustainability performance of the company covering the environmental, social and governance parameters, commonly referred to ESG parameters. As a result, Sustainability Reporting is also termed as ESG Reporting. It is crucial to assess how the company is currently performing on ESG front, and identify the major issues and potential opportunities. It also brings transparency to the investors and customers and can help to develop more trust. There are several frameworks of sustainability reporting, however, at the international level, Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) is the most commonly used framework. In Indian context, the Business Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting (BRSR) is the standard framework which has been introduced by Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). It is mandatory for top 1000 listed companies while voluntary for the other companies. The BRSR reporting comprises 3 sections namely Section A: General Disclosures, Section B: Management and Process Disclosures and Section C: Performance Disclosures. This blog provides the fundamentals of BRSR Reporting. In our next blog, we shall delve into understanding the GRI framework.

On the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, we reflect on the incredible impact of Mahatma Gandhi's teachings on cleanliness and the Swachh Bharat Mission that embodies his vision. Gandhi Ji believed that “Cleanliness is next to Godliness," and the Swachh Bharat Mission has brought that belief to life, creating a cleaner and healthier India. At Social Lab, we have greatly benefited from the mission's principles, working towards sustainable waste management and contributing to the drive for a cleaner nation. Gandhi Ji’s teachings inspire us daily to take action, promote community well-being, and work towards a circular economy. Let’s honor his legacy by committing to a cleaner, more sustainable future.

In our previous post, we presented an overview of CBAM compliance. It is key to note that CBAM is a complex and evolving policy. Therefore, it is imperative to understand the broader aspects of CBAM compliance. The major aspects include the purpose of CBAM, stage of implementation, sectors covered, legal implications and scope of emissions assessment. Today, we look at these aspects in detail in the form of FAQs. Please let us know your thoughts and share with us any other questions in the comments section. Stay tuned for more insights! #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #WasteManagement #SocialLab #YouthForSustainability #WorkshopImpact #EnvironmentalEducation

We recently had an inspiring day at Shiv Shikshan Sanstha, Sion, with 150 students participating in a workshop organized by the Social Lab team. The street play captivated the students, teaching them valuable lessons about waste management while keeping them entertained. During the workshop, we focused on practical waste segregation techniques and the impact of responsible waste disposal. The session also included fun activities like a Q&A and a “water in plastic glass” challenge, keeping the students involved and learning through play. We also felicitated winner of the drawing and essay competition conducted last month!. 🌱♻️ At Social Lab, we believe students are the key to building a circular waste management system, and workshops like these help them become advocates for a sustainable future. #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #WasteManagement #SocialLab #YouthForSustainability #WorkshopImpact #EnvironmentalEducation
