ROKA rewinds through a watershed year

The Hindu  

Year 2024 has had a depressingly long list of floods and forest fires across the globe. Inspired by the SWMRT-Bangalore model of community composting, we set up three lane composters to process organic waste in Kasturba Nagar. The Urban Ocean Summit happened in June 2024, which had many foreign delegates visiting Kasturba Nagar to understand GCC’s model near zero-waste ward. And now, when we look at the actual impact of this project, we are talking about three cycles of harvest of the compost from the lane composters which equals to 1750 kg of compost distributed to residents and a total of 5250 kg of organic waste locally processed in the year 2024. At The Chennai High school, ROKA along with EFI have installed a 75kg capacity in situ food waste processing unit.
