It would be nice if he can apply his insights to his own businesses to operate in a way that is revolutionary but also responsible. He has revolutioned Indian retail, but with that kind of power, comes great responsibility. He has the mindshare to also take care of the environment that sustains not only his customers but also his businesses. For example, how many plastic bags are handed out by his stores ? Where do they end up ? They clog drains, leading to fertile bredding grounds for all kinds of pests. They create a hazard for all wildlife around us. What kind of world is this creating ? Now, it is not only his stores that give out plastic bags. But, he has an opportunity to set an example by doing some revolutionary and responsible. How about giving out or selling( at a nominal rate) sturdy, reusable bags made of some coir or something that our grandparents used when they went shopping ? If this is done at all stores, with no option for a plastic bag, can you imagine the impact! I want him to know what is possible.
