Noida City Centre Spotfix on Apr 30, 2017

We Mean To Clean shares experience of their Noida City Centre Spotfix on April 30, 2017




There are experiences which can alter the dimensions of mind and mould it to think broadly.

With this as the motto We Mean To Clean (WMTC) conducted their another cleanliness drive at Noida City Centre Metro Station’s parking.

When one exited from the terminus of uber class commuting transport, the smeared face of staunch neglect was inevitable. Although there is a considerably well maintained Sulabh Toilet Complex, the wall of parking bay actually radiated some different colors due to open urination. Adding to the woes, the path for the pedestrians was the poor cousin of the stench scenario.

When WMTC volunteers got to know about this, they visited the spot. In a general checkup of the spot, the area was diagnosed with sporadic cleaning, minimal enforcement and zero awareness. So as a general strategy, for the basic cleansing NOIDA authority was approached. With the coordination from the authorities, the cleaning was regularized a week well prior to the painting fun day. The volunteers also visited before the fixing day and talked to auto-drivers regarding the problem.

The volunteers, from kids to working professionals reached early on 30th April for fixing of the spot and split into teams. One were peeling off the posters, pamphlets and while the other were preparing the items for painting. In a couple of hours, the onlookers started to amazingly witness the transformation.

The children were imprinting their tiny hands in different colors, learning the important lessons of life. The wall was being covered with designs in green, yellow and white, emanating the aspects of each realm.

It was almost afternoon, when a rejuvenated, freshened up, emitting positivity and perfect for selfies wall of the parking bay emerged. One rare thing was present there, the smiles of satisfaction.

WMTC is all about it's volunteers who pledge to bring change and invites everyone to donate some time.

All we have ever needed is just a start because things shall always follow up! Have a look at the photos here:

2018 Monsoon Plantation - Week 04

🌳 100 AMALTAS SAPLINGS PLANTED!!! 🌳 We are pleased to share that with the help of around 50+ volunteers - including kids from the nearby areas, college students and working adults - we have hit yet another century today. 🌳 We planted 100 amaltas saplings within a matter of two hours, although there was some interruption due to rains. 🌳 We have focused only on amaltas in this park because this area is frequented by goats. Goats don't feed on amaltas. 🌳 We could have planted more saplings but we were out of the scope of pits here. Our volunteers will visit the park mid-week and try to seek the DDA's assistance in removing weeds. Post that we'll see if we can plant any more saplings here. 🌳 Our total saplings count this monsoon season has hit 500! Yes, if you've been following our page, we had planted total 370 till last week, today's 100 and there's another set of ~30 saplings reported by other set of volunteers that they planted.

Five Great Ways to Celebrate Eco-friendly Diwali

We Mean To Clean shares their ideas to celebrate Diwali in an eco-friendly yet enjoyable way! It’s that time of the year again. The biggest festivals of all. A day to be with family. A day full of auspiciousness, togetherness and love. The most royal of all, the festival of lights… yes, Diwali. We all know how our air quality goes down on this night, especially in a city like Delhi, where air quality is already poor. So, here we are to offer you some suggestions to celebrate Diwali in an eco-friendly way! We hope you’ll like these ideas. 1. Avoid Firecrackers This is a common one and it goes without saying. Firecrackers not only add to air pollution but they also cause sound pollution. High decibel sound is especially harmful for sensitive ears of infants and small children. And let’s also show some compassion to our pets and stray animals who live in our vicinity. And worse, they emit toxic fumes which are harmful for our health. Additionally, we all know the amount...

Awareness Drive at Chuna Bhatti, Kirti Nagar

DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE Total Volunteers = 15 Households Covered in Door to Door Awareness = 80 Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible. - Francis of Assisi Changing oneself is difficult. Changing someone else is arduous. Changing the masses is nearly impossible. And this is what we are trying to do at Chuna Bhatti slum cluster in Kirti Nagar. We are attempting to restore a park from its current abused state as a garbage dumping yard to a garden full of fruit trees and medicinal herbs and shrubs. However, we need locals to shun their habit of littering or garbage dumping in the park. As a first step of this colossal ambition our volunteers began by spreading awareness among the locals. Our initial conversation was with a few people in the park. We were fortunate that these people showed immense interest in our mission. Some were quite positive that such change with everyone’s support is possib...
