@ZEEIsGreen launches its 'Carpooling Platform' for Esselites as a part of its #EarthDay - 'Sustainability Week' celebrations

With increasing levels of air pollution all over the country coupled with rising traffic congestion especially during peak hours, it has become the need of the hour to seek out alternatives to counter these problems. At Essel Group, we are striving to make a difference by launching the 'Carpooling Platform for Esselites'. This is an initiative undertaken by @ZEEIsGreen as a part of 'Sustainability Week', a countdown to Earth Day on April 22, 2016. We will also be releasing a Mobile App shortly with additional features which would help to further make this initiative a success, and rewarding too!!

Elaborating on this initiative, Mr. Rajendra Mehta, Chief People Officer, ZEEL said, 'It is imperative for us as responsible citizens to explore measures that contribute to reducing the spiralling pollution levels in our country. We are launching the 'Carpooling Platform' across our Group companies in India. As a responsible conglomerate, we need to make our small and yet significant contribution in curbing pollution and traffic congestion. We strongly encourage all Esselites to make use of the 'Carpooling Platform', thereby reinforcing our pledge to #GoGreen.'
