No one should be using these plastic articles, especially for the Muthashi Project. We relied on what the local people felt comfortable providing at the time, but as you so rightly point out, these are unhealthy on many levels and should be avoided. Besides, it's SO much more enjoyable to eat from a banana leaf! I find it a daily challenge to garner cooperation with avoiding use of plastic shopping bags also. But from now, I'll redouble my efforts to make sure we are using only Nature's good materials for these kinds of practical needs both inside Rasa Ayurveda, and when we are out in the community. Thanks so much, PNair, for writing and encouraging the effort to keep Kerala truly green... ~ Niika @PNair – Goodness, you are so correct!

I have a nick name "The Go Green Person". I came accross this site during one of my google search for Ayurvedic herbs and uses. I am delighted to know that there is a program like this where people in Kerala are educated of the use and care of these priceless medicinal plant and the need to protect and propagate these plants. However I was surprised to see after all the information, people are still eating food in plastic plates and cups. When you are in a land of Coconut trees and banana leaves, do you still need to use these unhealthy plates and cups? I am a Malayali working as a software engineer in Bay area, California.
