Stress on use of biodegradable materials The green booths set up in different parts of the district on account of the local body polls were crowd pullers in many places. With the total green look provided by the banners and decorations made of coconut leaves and other eco-friendly materials, they evoked the curiosity of the voters. Many were seen approaching the booths with a look of “What is this all about” and were impressed by the explanation given by the volunteers. “This is exactly what we wanted. To evoke the curiosity and thus create an awareness against the use of non-biodegradable materials,” Shailesh E.P., Junior Health Inspector of Kozhikode Corporation, explained.
