The system is very nice and it was nice to hear that the factory has Indian customers too. One thing though, the grain farmers around Delhi produce not rice but wheat and maize, so will the Thai method work ? Does wheat and maize stubble boiled, dried and other-ways-processed material have the property to be converted to disposable plates and cups ?

Maybe this is possible with wheat and maize stubble too.
People with Asthma get very sick in Lahore during the month of October and November and doctors continue to warn people to either move away or take more precautions. You are right that we are just starting to understand the effect of pollution on human lives.
While principally i agree with that on private ownership of cars, the fact remains that industries contribute more towards the pollution than the common population. We have NEQS (National Effluent Quality standards) in place but industries seldom comply to these standards and get a waiver by paying money to auditors.
Agreed many industries do not comply to pollution control standards and the government auditors may be in cahoots with the industry owners but the industries exist to produce goods for the common population. If the common population, especially the middle class, does not care that their non-harmonious lifestyle contributes massively to global pollution of all sorts then the industry captains also won't care. It is easy berating Leonardo DiCaprio for traveling to a climate conference by jet plane but the real culprit is the Indian middle class worker in an outsourcing-based ITES company in Bangalore whose "work" involves doing offloaded work for a Wall Street company or a similar company in London whose work in turn being the lender to Tesla car company or some similar Chinese company or the Hyundai whose plans are to sell 50,000 personal transport cars to the middle class in China or UAE or America or India in the next six months. The cars being most times purchased on loan of course. And for the loan to be repaid the middle class continues their dis-harmonious, polluting lifestyle. So a middle class worker in Bangalore is contributing to pollution everywhere including in his own country, in his own city. It all is inter-linked. The rich DiCaprio does not pollute the world as much as the middle class people.
