YEC 2022

The theme for this year is relevant to the conversations raging around the need for ‘Conservation’. The contest awaits novel ideas on how to preserve the planet’s resources – water, land, wildlife and forest, and energy. Conserving our resources and finding alternate means to it is imperative to ensure that nature’s balance is maintained, and the younger generations have been brilliantly vocal and aware of it. To drive the message home, the brand has roped in actor Jim Sarbh, a strong advocate of sustainability and environment conservation for the campaign.

The month-long contest will be evaluated by the IIT-Bombay experts from the Department of Environmental Science and Engineering headed by Professor Amritanshu Shriwastav. Jim Sarbh will also play an important role in judging the entries. The top 10 winners will stand a chance to virtually interact with Jim and the professor on their ideas and exchange thoughts about sustainability. The one with the most innovative idea will be named the Young Earth Champions along with receiving a mega prize and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be featured on Sony BBC Earth.
