Valentine special cleanup campaign ride was organized by Bikerstroop Bengaluru to Antaragange mountain situated 60 kms from Bengaluru. This ride focused on spreading knowledge, awareness among the visitors and minimizing plastic usage for creating an enabling environment for the living creatures in this area. 40+ volunteers from all generations (40+ years Men/Woman to 14-year-old boy) came together on Sunday 11th Feb to clean the surroundings of Antaragange mountain.
200+ KG WASTE ACCUMULATED
This troop trekked 3 kms at a height of 1712 meters through rocky and tricky paths to dig waste from the caves and temple surroundings. Total of 200+ kgs of plastic waste was collected by the Troop digging around the corners of rocky paths and caves. It was alarming and unsafe for the living creatures present on the mountains. “We saw hundreds of monkeys and birds around the mountain, and I am sure there are other creatures too. It is insane of us (Humans) to litter someone else’s home and mother nature with all kinds of wastes” a statement by Harshith B K (Volunteer and founder of Bikerstroop Bengaluru (BTB).
