Do you know how much India struggles to gather the waste plastic water bottles? According to a Central
Pollution Control Board (CPCB) report from 2012, India generates 15, 000 tonnes of plastics a day, of which the
gathered ones only achieve 60%. The trashed-but-not-gathered plastic waste leads to land and water pollution.
posing serious threat to the environment.
After seeing that, Ankur Chawla, a drink expert, undertook research to find a solution, after which he realised
the biggest problem the country faced was disposing of plastic waste. To address it, he wanted to come up with a
solution where they do not add to the problem of waste. Fortunately, Ankur was not alone. He met Bhrigu Seth who
was into green farming. Both of them found that they shared a common goal and it didn’t take long for them to
draft a plan of action. It is estimated that over 90 percent of aluminium(铝) drink cans in India are recycled.
Instead, 70 percent of the cans are manufactured through recycled waste. After going through challenges at hand,
the pair made up their minds.
Before taking the next step. both co-founders visited five-star hotels and took samples of water in aluminium
cans, asking them whether they would give it a shot if something like that comes in the market. The pair received
an overwhelmingly positive response. They then determined to launch Responsible Whatr, natural spring water
drink packed in an aluminium can to solve the problem of waste plastic water bottles.
As one of India’s first natural spring water drink, Responsible Whatr offered an environmentally friendly and
endlessly recyclable aluminium can. It’s a non-alcoholic drink that was launched with a vision for an eco-friendly
future and an agenda to reduce single-use plastic pollution.
Going forward, Ankur and Bhrigu aim to cooperate with airports and ecommerce gates which would help them
in directly reaching the homes of high networth individuals (HNIs). They also plan to tie up with corporate firms
and cinema halls and join hands with NGOs that are fighting for the conservation of beaches and oceans.

A new finding from Cambridge scientists has shown that an artificial intelligent (AI) system can acquire
features of the brains of humans in order to solve tasks.
“Not only is the brain great at solving complex problems, but it does so while using very little energy. In our
new work we show that considering the brains’ problem-solving abilities alongside its goal of spending as few
resources as possible can help us understand why brains look like they do, ” said Jascha Achterberg, a scholar at the
University of Cambridge.
