Bhumi Pednekar Says Monsoon Rains Expose Plastic Pollution

Mumbai — Actress Bhumi Pednekar has urged people to reconsider their use of plastic, saying monsoon rains expose the waste left on streets and carry it into waterways.

“When the first monsoon showers arrive, they don’t just wash our streets. They also carry everything we have left behind,” Pednekar wrote on Instagram, citing plastic bottles, food wrappers, carry bags and single-use packaging.

“What begins on our roads often ends up in drains, rivers, oceans, and eventually, our food chain,” she added. “The rain isn’t creating the pollution. It’s revealing it. Small choices today can have a lasting impact tomorrow.”

Pednekar has previously advocated for improved rainwater harvesting systems in India’s cities, warning that urbanization and expanding concrete infrastructure reduce the ground’s ability to absorb water. (Source: IANS)
