‘Kabadiwala’ inspired new age paperman : Video on a recycling campaign by Mathew Jose

Treating today’s newspapers that end up becoming tomorrows waste, he is attempting to change the way we see and treat waste.

His social venture ‘Paperman’ aims at creating a paper recycling revolution. In Chennai he has collaborated with schools, creating a recycle wall, where in students collect their paper waste and sell it to a paperman, and collect the money. Money raised by selling paper is donated to charity, giving the children a valuable life lesson. The students imbibe a culture of both social and environmental consciousness.

He encourages people to recycle paper and has also begun an online database where one can post and find a local paperman
