October 5: Youths of namma Kudla have thrown up a #KissTheBonda Challenge to the public, which aims at giving up plastic or paper straws while drinking tender bonda (coconut).
This challenge is also open while drinking juices and aerated drinks, or any beverage without straws.
The group has thrown up a challenge, which is whoever drinks tender coconut without straws, must click a picture and upload it with #KissTheBonda Challenge hasthtag.
A group of like-minded youngsters from the city ‘Lessismore.in’ started this initiative. It was initially started by three eco-conscious girls: Megan D’Souza, Anvitha Rai and Joanna Vas. Now the group has grown to 20 people including students, young professionals, mothers, children and is open to all.
This innovative idea to reduce usage of plastic straws was first started off as a ‘Straw Beda’ concept resulted in ‘kiss the bonda’ challenge. the aim of the group is not to limit it just to plastic straws, but to try to eliminate all forms of single use plastic.
