How YOU can help Save Trees, Plants & Water this summer?

Excerpt: “Abandoned empty plastic bottles are considered a serious threat to the environment. But at the Green Park Avenue Apartments near the New Bus Stand in Salem, residents have found out a novel utility for such bottles by using them for drip irrigation. These bottles are not only helping the residents of 168 houses to save close to 4,500 litres of water everyday but also becoming the solution for keeping the colourful plants from getting dried up during summer.”

” ‘These bottles are filled with water around 9.30 a.m. Water drips from smaller bottles till 3 p.m. The bigger bottles keep the soil wet till night, they added. Residents of the apartments are happy that the cost effective method is keeping their plants alive while many plants are dying in other parts of the city due to water scarcity.”
