The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|June 06, 2025
Call it ‘catch ‘em young, grow them old,’ or something else! Fortune Global 500 Company and the second largest Indian oil marketing company – Bharat Petroleum (BPCL) is rolling out what is christened as ‘Project Greening Classrooms’, coinciding with the World Environment Day.
The initiative, part of its corporate social responsibility drive, not only promises to lead to the installation of 1,400 benches crafted from recycled plastic, but also talks of seamlessly blending sustainability, education, and community engagement into a powerful model.
Significantly, BPCL has a strong focus on sustainable solutions. The company is developing an ecosystem and a road-map to become a Net Zero Energy Company by 2040, in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Bharat Petroleum has been partnering communities by supporting several initiatives connected primarily in the areas of education, water conservation, skill development, health, community development, capacity building and employee volunteering.
