In this episode of GETSETGREEN, we have Aparna Pujari, The founder of Eila Enterprises. We talked about waste paper generation, solutions, and also how it is contributing to climate change. Aparna has an MBA in Human Resource Management, is a lecturer by profession, and she always wanted to be an entrepreneur. She comes from a small conservative family in Dharwad rural area. She has an immense desire to improve her community, empower women, and do something to save our environment, and the urgent need to Recycle, Restore, and create a sustainable ecosystem. A synthesis of all of these ideas is today's Eila Enterprises. The desire to turn these dreams into reality. The courage to fantasize about these things propelled her on an entrepreneurial journey. Imagine a pencil made of Old Newspaper actually water resistant. Yes, they are real and available.
Eila Enterprises produces pencils made out of waste paper waste, they distributed 1 lakh of pencils till now. Nearly 40,000 thousand are saved by upcycling waste papers! They are also adding seeds to the end tip of the pencil so once it has completed its purpose it can be used to grow plants. They mostly use manual power in the production mostly rural women, which makes it use less electricity and water in the process.
