This B’town actress has stopped using sanitary napkins during her periods
New Delhi : Indian actress-producer Dia Mirza on Wednesday said she has replaced a large amount of plastic from her life. She’s using toothbrush that is not made of plastic but a bamboo one. And she believes in refilling bottles for quenching her thirst, even in plush hotels.
“The basic things which you can do in your life can go a big distance,” Mirza told .
“My toothbrush is a bamboo one. I have stopped using plastic packaged water. I carry my metal bottle from home,” Mirza said in a candid conversation.
“I ensure the vehicles I move around are on the highest emissions standards. I would love to use an electric car. I wish the government of India will reduce the taxes on sustainable alternatives.”
She even admitted that: “I have switched from using normal sanitary napkins to biogradable ones.”
Mirza, who is also the Wildlife Trust of India brand ambassador, took up the role as the United Nations brand ambassador to her work on raising awareness and seeking solutions for environmental issues that the world, and India in particular, faces.
As a Goodwill Ambassador, the Bollywood actress will work with the UN to further spread the message on priority areas including clean air, clean seas, wildlife protection and climate change.
“I am delighted to have Dia join UN Environment as a Goodwill Ambassador. India faces many challenges, in particular the air pollution that is choking many of its cities.
“Dia Mirza’s influence can help to turn the situation around and create a healthy future for Indians and their environment,” said UN Environment head Erik Solheim.
After three-day hectic negotiations in the third United Nations Environment Assembly that culminated in this Kenyan capital, 193 countries members to the UN Environment pledged to make it easier to rethink, reuse, recycle, recover and remake any products, materials and prevent and reduce waste generation.
