Under this initiative, Milind has embarked on an 8-day sustainable journey on a bicycle and an electric scooter, promoting eco-friendly transportation, a green lifestyle as well as the importance of health &amp; fitness. Starting the eco-friendly journey from Mumbai, Milind rode into Pune today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 1400 kms Green Ride was flagged off from Mumbai on 19th December and will conclude at Mangaluru on 26th December 2022. In Pune, Milind visited the Bank of Baroda office in Pune and interacted with the Bank\u2019s employees, customers, and his fans. Milind emphasised the importance of clean air and encouraged everyone to adopt sustainable &amp; energy-efficient modes of transportation and make fitness a priority in one\u2019s everyday life. He also planted saplings with the Bank\u2019s executives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the Green Ride 2.0 initiative, Smt. Mini T. M., General Manager &amp; Zonal Head &#8211; Pune Zone, Bank of Baroda said, \u201cIt is our responsibility as individuals and citizens of the nation to play our part in whatever way we can to protect the environment. Every small step taken in this direction towards a more sustainable lifestyle will make a big impact and help in contributing towards a greener environment. Bank of Baroda is proud to associate with the Green Ride to create awareness and rally all Indians together to take concerted action now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Milind Soman said, \u201cI remember Pune as a pleasant and pollution-free city from my younger days. But over the years, the level of pollution has increased. My message to the citizens of Pune is simple \u2013 all the progress and advancement that we have achieved as a society is futile if we do not have pure air to breathe. If we make a small change in our day-to-day lives \u2013 walk\/ cycle short distances instead of drive, switch to electric two-wheelers \u2013 we will collectively be able to make a significant difference to our environment and enjoy the Pune of old.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Milind encourages Punekars to lead a healthy and sustainable life Pune (Voice News Service): Bank of Baroda (Bank), one of India\u2019s leading public sector banks, flagged off the 2nd edition of Green Ride &#8211; Ek Pehal Swachh Hawa ki Aur, an initiative with environment advocate and fitness enthusiast, Milind Soman.
