Yesterday, actor-activist Dia Mirza rendered a talk on how to beat plastic pollution at TEDx Bandra. What she could not digest were the plastic IDs that were being given at the event. She tweeted, “A Sunday well spent. Hopefully @TEDxBandra will ensure IDs are not laminated with plastic in the future (sic).” Will other event organisers follow suit?

In her role as the UN Environment Goodwill Ambassador in India, Dia Mirza has often voiced her concern over plastic pollution in the country. At the IIFA press conference in Delhi, she took her campaign — Beat Plastic Pollution — a step further as she found support from her friends in the film fraternity. Actors Ranbir Kapoor, Shahid Kapoor, Kartik Aaryan and filmmaker Karan Johar joined hands with Mirza to bat for the cause.
Dia Mirza lauded her colleagues for adding their might to the movement, which, she believes, is the need of the hour. “Having celebrities lend their voice to the movement will help us tremendously in expanding the reach of the cause. It will help in influencing and inspiring millions of followers that these stars have. The enthusiasm that Ranbir, Shahid, Kartik and Karan showed in understanding the pertinence of the campaign, is exciting.”
