I am in peace to learn that new generation are more aware of sustaining our future.👏🏻👏🏻
In peace to learn?
True...this gives hope
@@ssaj22 you just redefine yourself first.. what the hell this ssaj22!!!
@@ssaj22 any idea about metaphor!!! Doesn't seems like😏
If its cheaper then only common people can afford it. everyone care about environment but unable to replace plastic products. We need replacements for plastic available at a cheaper rate
Anu _ what u said is correct #letsbeco.com
Hi, I'm a final year design student, doing research on the topic "affordable sustainability" it would be great to have your insight/perspective. please let me know if you or anyone is interested in such a discussion.
@@abhijeetkaushal1735 yes, I am. I'm actually working on a startup in which affordable sustainability will play a vital role.
@@omthakkar7801 hey are you aware of other affordable and sustainable start ups in india and is your start up ready yet
More buyers - the cost can be minimized - initial support Ned to be given.
celebrity should endorse these products then everyone will do it.
Harshith Sadhana we can also make it popular by using hashtag for every comment we use in UA-cam so it will also reach more efficient #letsbeco.com
They won't. They don't give a heck about us. They'll rather endorse a product with harmful chemicals if paid with Big fat cheques.
They wont do that
Let’s become celebrity of transformation ourselves
Let’s lead
A good initiative by Eco India to save earth and Eco-System. I am working on Organic sustainable community living last 10 years.
Sad of such amazing company is lack of mass reach or marketing.
kritika k please use hashtag for every comment u use

it's good initiative taken by startup. now we need to understand about nature because we take it and gives waste.
First of all thank you all to scroll team to showcase this program that focuses to a product - bamboo, that has been the livelihood for many generations and it has the capacity to save even not only humanity but also economy too.
Good initiative by eco India to save our eco system
I need a job in eco-friendly startups in future
Great work 👌👍👍.. All the best
Great initiative!! Keep going!! Please sell your products in Chennai too!!
Who many bamboos beco planted?...
@Siddhant Kumawat it's called abusing the nature. Cut down but won't plant any trees. What an ECO , sirji
4:10 "They are priced at 10 to 15% premium than their existing non-green competitors" -- but why? Are their input costs higher? This should have been brought out in the report.
Such stupid businesses, under the name of "startup", earn shit-loads of money through funding via investors; that's why.
One question out of curosity. Is the packaging also made of bamboo paper ?
Yes, I did check their website.
so cool for environment.
Great Initiative 🙌
Just one question for manager team of Scroll.in and DW ..Why doesn't Eco India has its own UA-cam Channel ?
Your work and the message you want to spread can be reached to audience in a more effective way if the is a channel specially for Eco-India .
Agreed!
Can you please provide this video in hindi language
Hope they continued doing so and not be money minded in future.
Are they on amazon iam interested in trying some
@Arunava Nandy ok thanku
Just want to help you guys I hope you guys come to nagaland even me I want to start my business
Please let me know the eco plastic wrapping
Made of bamboo carbon
Will their products be decomposed in the regular landfills?
👏👏👏👏
BECO🙌🏻
Do check out Lauren Singer frm Trash is for tossers; also buy bamboo toothbrushes ppl!
How do you debunk the non sustainability involved with bamboo products like bamboo clothing fabrics?
WHY IS THE SOUND SO LOW IN YOUR VIDEOS?
IT'S LIKE NOT JUST ONE BUT ALL OF YOUR ECO INDIA VIDEOS
I believe you can grow like sun shine only the drawbak was cost of your products when you conquer that beco will be the king in market share
Should we dump them in wet waste and accordingly make a compost out of it?
Yes you can
Let all make a small bit.
Can I be a part in beco
👍💕
Up walo tum bhi kuch karo.....
How to work in your company?
Cassava is another alternative.
Green Environment.😀
Some time we saw him
How have beco products become alternative to non biodegradable products? Has beco found solution to replacing biodegradable chocolate wrapping or plastic containers for provisions say shampoo bottles or cooking oil containers?
Idea is good but has not reached the goal
Paper towels and tissue have always been degradable, nothing innovative about that.
Number
Nearly 8% of plastic is from sanitary napkin used by women.try to replace them with biodegradable material.
Won't help, they must try some another method, as at last it will lead to extinction of these plants.
Since you are getting the raw materials from nature or mother earth...what is your company doing to give back to nature..?
How is this sustainable if the price is high..?
Making people use organic instead of plastic is what they are giving back to nature
Look what ever they are doing is great. At least material used is biodegradable. But the thing is consumption of material is still there and now its bamboo, crop waste instead of plastic. Let one thing is sustainable and if it is consumed by 7.5 billion people then it will not remain sustainable it will always overshoot. That's the problem I have with todays society of which I am also a part. They will not compromise with living standards but they will achieve it by somehow by sustainable but don't remain when used by all population. Be less consumptive in life. Use 5R.
Payment karte nahi hai koi bhi inke pass Kam mat karna please

South ke log bhi hain
@@mr.subtle3831 mumbai ke h.
are hum angrezo ke sevak theyy...bhul gaye kya 😂 😂 😂 😂
Sustainable in the sense of environment? Maybe. Price ? Nope. In the end, not sustainable 😂
It is at a similar price to the plastic ones. Please check
Lol, they are creating products which are not replacing even 1% of plastics; such stupid businesses, under the name of "startup", earn shit-loads of money through funding via investors. Making tissue papers, toilet paper and shit, as if they were the first to do so. And look at the video title; sustainable alternatives to daily-use products; my foot. Thumbs down.
No thanks. I am good with what are affordable.
It is affordable sir. Please check in Amazon or on their website
