Iconic Model and actor Milind Soman did his bit for the environment on Monday, when he picked up garbage on the way to a Shiva temple on top of a hill. He documented his ‘plogging’ experience on social media.

Taking to Instagram, Milind  Soman shared a picture of himself holding up bags of garbage and another of the temple. The third photo was of him with his mother Usha Soman and wife Ankita Konwar, who joined him on the trek. He wrote in his caption,  “Small trek to a Shiva temple at the top of a hill today with @ankita_earthy and @somanusha To make it more fun and to show my respect to the deity, I picked up as much garbage as I could along the holy trail. Strangely, at the temple, I was told by the caretaker that there were no dustbins because of monkeys throwing the garbage out of the bins, and all garbage would be burnt in the forest,”

Milind wanted to express two points through his post: “Point no.1 - I really think the time has come for us to be smarter than monkeys and urged food companies to use biodegradable packaging.   Point no. 2 - Food companies really need to start using bio-degradable packaging so that more people can eat more junk, guiltfree.
