Regular brainstorm meetings are conducted to discuss and share creative thoughts and ideas, finalise the programmes, calculate the impact and decide on way forward. In a highly successful tree plantation drive, 70 saplings have been planted by employees inside the plant premises whereas 75 saplings have been distributed amongst employees. More than 20 pictorial posters on water conservation and its benefit were posted at the plant campus in Hindi and English. The team also displayed 61 water conservation slogans at drinking water points in Hindi.

The hard work put in by Tata Power employees and volunteers is mendable and demonstrates their mitment towards this Green cause."

To create awareness on fuel saving, the Company re-routed the buses to cover more employees and distributed leaflets on fuel conservation tips. An energy conservation drive was conducted with Club Enerji initiative outside the plant area and witnessed sensitisation of more than 1300 students whereas 2000 stickers were put up at different locations across the plant. Employees from Tata Motors also delivered speech on Energy Conservation during National Energy Conservation week.

Employees are motivated to participate in 'Clean your City' drive, reduce air travel and use webcast/video conferencing facilities. The Company takes wastage of paper extremely seriously and has implemented a waste management disposal system where used paper has to be segregated into three bins i.e one side written paper, both side written paper and unwanted but confidential paper. The team also tracks the consumption of paper used for photocopy.

A special "Plastic free environment" mittee is also working towards reducing the use of plastic bags amongst employees. The Company has distributed jute bags to all the employees and have also banned the use to plastic bag in the office cafeteria.  Over 40 display board have been mounted to avoid the use of plastic bags, while create awareness about plastic hazards.

The Company also motivated employees on "E-waste management and Solid waste management". Over 400 Kg of E-waste was identified and auctioned by the mittee. For educating employees and stakeholders, every week the team organises training programmes to sensitise on how to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle the Solid waste. To encourage the systematic disposal of waste the mittee has increased waste bins in and around the plant and has done colour coding of bins. The team makes innovative use of such scrap material by reusing them as drain cover & panton (boat) for continuous cleaning of Ash Pond.
