Social media has been buzzing with reactions to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recycled jacket, which was launched as part of the “Unbottled” initiative by Indian Oil during the India Energy Week 2023 in Bengaluru. The jacket, made from recycled plastic bottles, has received a mixed response on social media, with some users applauding the Prime Minister for promoting sustainability, while others are critical of the move.
Many users on social media have expressed their support for the initiative and have praised PM Modi for taking a step towards promoting sustainability. They believe that the jacket sends a strong message about the importance of reducing waste and recycling. Users have also pointed out that the initiative is in line with India’s commitment to reduce the emissions intensity of GDP by 45% and achieve net-zero emissions by 2070.
However, there have also been some critical voices on social media who believe that the initiative is just a publicity stunt and that the Prime Minister should focus on more pressing issues. They believe that the jacket is a symbolic move that does not address the root cause of the problem and that the Prime Minister should take concrete steps to reduce waste and promote sustainability.
Despite the mixed reactions, the launch of the recycled jacket has sparked a conversation on social media about the importance of reducing waste and promoting sustainability. Many users have taken to social media to express their support for the initiative and share their own experiences of reducing waste and adopting sustainable practices.
