  • Every week, Eco India brings you stories that inspire to build a cleaner, greener and better tomorrow. Our top story this week contextualises the problem of food waste in India, and looks at Feeding India, an organisation that collect excess food from restaurants, wedding receptions and corporate canteens, which would most likely be thrown away, and distribute it among those who can’t afford a healthy meal.

      Yes. It is. But just feeding people daily don't change anything. Dependency is New World challenge.
      They are doing great socially india is very sick,
      I had completed my engineering and master but still no job is there, my parents are taken loan for education and past 2 year i am at home.
      Gov is not helping common man that us true. Even in such condition i am paying 1500 for Gate exam, 500 for railway exam etc etc, when this is Gov organisation in last its own by public, then why they take fees ?

      @@mechengineer8312 true ...even after paying so much for such competitive exams we dont succeed. one of my friends friend succeeded at SBI PO....but he got rejected at 3rd round interview . He was very poor and had no finance for Studies..so he gave competitive exams and used to borrow books from friends to study. Its shame what is actually happening around us.

      1. Make people, students and others aware of how a large growth in population can be detrimental to the nation.
      2. All religious communities should allow contraceptives.
      3. People and the society should normalise contraceptives.

    Wow! Great work!!
    Cold chains is definitely a huge problem. These problems are generally addressed when someone can make money out of it and create win-win situations. Hello Entrepreneurs!!
    Excited about your mobile app. My relatives don't like to hand out money and overburden me with sweets. Will definitely give them to you when app comes out. (Just one concern is that if you could make sure the food I send to you isn't taken up by someone else who doesn't actually need it)
    Finally, Very few are able to have social work in their mind to succeed. But the paradox is that when an organisation works with volunteers....the efficiency levels are way higher than corporate guys.
    GREAT LEADERSHIP. WHERE WE HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT WE ARE NOT ENOUGH, SOMEONE WITH RESOURCES CAN ONLY DO IT, THERE WILL BE TOO MANY HURDLES FOR US TO PULL IT OFF..... YOU HAVE SET AN EXAMPLE!!! THAT'S LEADERSHIP. EVERYONE KNEW OF THIS, AND HAS BEEN SHOWN IN MOVIES AS WELL.....BUT EVERYONE HAS THOGHT THAT SOMEONE WILL TAKE CARE OF IT. YOU TOOK THE LEADERSHIP!!! PROUD OF YOU!! AND IM SURE YOU HAVE INSPIRED MANY MORE TO JOIN YOU, SET THEMSELVES ON A PATH OF SERVICE.

    Beautiful programme and initiative. So often big businesses are reluctant or take measures not to give excess food to those needy. However the people who are receibing the food won't hurt the enterprises but support them in advertising and these consumers are too poor to be customers, so win win situation. In the UK they have banned dumping of excess or sell by date food from supermarkets, these now go to charities or feed livestock. Together top to bottom approach, we can reduce and eliminate world hunger.
