A young hero is changing the game when it comes to conserving paper. Aditya Deepak Avadhani, a student at Deens Academy caught the attention of none other than Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself! This class 9 superstar is making waves with his unique approach to using paper. 

Instead of buying new notebooks each year, Aditya uses the blank pages from his old ones for rough work and practice. And when the academic year ends, he ties them together, creating a powerful message of sustainability and environmental responsibility. 

The best part? Aditya's amazing idea went viral, with his father, Dr. Deepak Krishnamurthy, a senior interventional cardiologist from Bangalore, posting a photo of Aditya's notepad on Twitter. 

The post instantly got viral and even got recognition from PM Narendra Modi on Twitter. He retweeted the doctor’s tweet and wrote,” A good team effort this is, with a larger message of sustainable living. Compliments to your son and you. Would urge others as well to share similar efforts, which will create greater awareness on recycling and ‘waste to wealth.’” 

Meanwhile, Dr Deepak’s tweet gathered 7,137 likes and 1.6 million views. The PM’s retweet had garnered over 20k likes. “A simple thing we do in our day to day lives! Became viral and how! All credit to my wife and son for their efforts at recycling that I’m basking in this glory of sorts!” tweeted the doctor later.

Recycling unused notebooks is a simple but effective way to reduce waste and minimize the impact on the environment.It’s also heartening to hear that the boy’s actions earned praise from the Prime Minister. Recognition and encouragement from leaders can go a long way in motivating individuals and communities to take actions that benefit the environment.
