"Ban plastics", "Say NO to plastics", "Plastics Ban" are the most misleading campaigns doing the rounds today. There is an urgent need to change perceptions about the plastic industry. The real issue lies with incorrect Waste Management and limited recycling of plastics. It is important to educate the masses about these issues. With proper knowledge and awareness the likelihood of correct disposal and management of plastics will increase. We created a 360 degree strategy to create a nation-wide educational movement to reposition plastics. I would love to discuss this further. Do email me on amarkant.jain@gmail.com

Repositioning ‘PLASTIC’
A nation-wide educational movement

Need for this initiative
‘Plastic’ is like a ‘LIFE SUPPORT’
We cannot imagine life without plastic
Despite this, plastic is perceived to be a ‘VILLAIN’
Time has come to CHANGE this perception to
that of a ‘HERO’

Plastic - the Villain?
Several states
have banned the
use of plastic
bags there by
impacting the
entire image of
the plastic
industry
NO collaborative
effort of
Government and
plastics
associations to
change this
perception
Very little or NO
education about
littering, waste-
management,
recycling options
and
decomposition of
plastics
‘Say NO to
plastics’
campaign
across
touchpoints

Plastics is an inevitable part of
modern life
The real
problem is
not plastics
but correct
disposal &
recycling
Fact is that
plastics are
less harmful
than paper,
glass or
steel
Plastics are
used right
from birth,
through life,
until death
It is
impossible
to imagine
life without
plastics

The BIG Idea
A New Perspective
towards a Smarter
Tomorrow
Spread awareness
about positives of
plastics to users
Experiential, real-
time activity for 8th
grade students
Activity: Create a 2-
min short film on a
topic related to plastic
e.g. ‘A Day in My Life
with Plastics’.
This real time film would
be shot on their parent’s
cell phones thus engaging
a stronger parent-child
bonding around the
central theme of plastic.
The students could
focus in the areas of
self and parent
workplaces to shoot
this video.
Thus we engage a
much wider
audience to send
across our message
that ‘Plastic Saves’
10. All rights reserved : Sarvashreshtha Solutions
Amplifying the content
Video will be sent
to the regional
centre/emailed
through WeTransfer

schools over India
will be showcased
on social media
platforms

‘
Nodal centre
would inform
schools, update
social media and
promote video
The
students/schools
would try and
increase likes and
shares of the
videos
Winner can be
decided based on
popular votes,
story, message etc.
There will be
popular awards
and jury awards
The winning entries
would be
showcased at a
national awards

The entire process
could be
documented in a
book that is also
released
