Discovery Channel is set to air a documentary series called ‘Planet Healers’featuring eight of India’s environment-friendly startups, who are working towards sustainable development, a statement released by the broadcaster said.
The documentary series, which will be in four parts, will be hosted by Bollywood actor Jim Sarbh and is likely to be premiered on March 8 on the channel at 7 pm.
The series will show the journey of how these startups are working out innovative technology-led solutions to environmental hazards faced by the country, the statement said. One of the startups, called Farm2Energy, claims to have found a solution to use stubble burning which creates air pollution in northern India every winter. Another startup Absolute Water claims that it converts 17 lakh litres of sewage water into drinking water everyday, while Saahas Zero Waste specialises in treating and recycling waste without disturbing the ecosystem.
