As I strolled along the Devigada riverbed near Purighat in Cuttack, I couldn't help but notice the overwhelming piles of garbage scattered about. It was a disheartening sight, to say the least. The once beautiful and serene river now seemed to be drowning in a sea of waste.

As I continued my walk, my thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the sound of music and applause. Curious, I followed the sound and soon found myself at the Chanakya BNR Hotel in Puri. To my surprise, I stumbled upon a group of talented Odissi dancers performing on stage. But this was no ordinary performance. It was part of a summit on waste management and marine litter strategies.

As the dancers gracefully moved to the beat of the music, I couldn't help but feel a sense of hope and inspiration. It was a powerful reminder that even in the midst of chaos and pollution, there is still beauty and art to be found. And more importantly, it served as a reminder that we all have a responsibility to take care of our environment.

The summit itself was a gathering of experts and individuals who are passionate about finding solutions to the growing issue of waste management and marine litter. It was a platform for sharing ideas and discussing strategies to tackle this pressing problem.

As I watched the dancers and listened to the speakers, I couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency. We can no longer turn a blind eye to the mountains of garbage and pollution that surround us. It is our duty to take action and make a positive change for the future of our planet.

In that moment, I realized that we all have a role to play in preserving our environment. Whether it's through proper waste management, reducing our use of single-use plastics, or simply spreading awareness, every little action counts. And as the summit came to an end, I left with a renewed sense of determination to do my part in keeping our planet clean and healthy.
