Tata Chemicals greened Malara, by the use of bio fertilizers and bioremedian techniques. For the first time in the world, a highly alkaline and saline site has been recovered to successfully develop a green cover with a living eco system.They have actually helped slow down the effects of global warming thru this! Marico is truly doing a great job by recognizing these organizations. Guys go ccheck out their website to see the other awardees.
