00:00I don't care about the environment. I want it to be clean and the thing is, there is so much rubbish here. I cannot do it alone.
00:30There is one. There is one.
00:36There is also a big deal because of the light.
00:40You can see the layer of the light.
00:43You don't want to see it, but it's right on there.
00:47So then also you can see the light.
00:55You know, you can just take it.
01:00What motivated you to start cleaning and removing plastic waste from dal?
01:22I think I only did it in Netherlands also because I was living there at the seaside.
01:29And in general, Netherlands is clean.
01:33But ships throw waste overboard.
01:37So even then already I started collecting sometimes plastics on the beach.
01:43So it's kind of, it's in my nature.
01:47In a way, when I see it, I can't avoid cleaning up.
01:53And actually I started in Darchigam.
01:56Because Darchigam, there's not that much plastic.
02:00Only little.
02:01And I could see, you know, now I leave, it's fully clean.
02:05And, but then, you know, I had my boat since November last year.
02:16And I see all this rubbish also in the lake.
02:21And I thought, I'm gonna do it.
02:23And maybe it's only a drop in an ocean.
02:26What I do.
02:27Because from there, it goes through the water, the waves.
02:31And, you know, collecting this from the water is much more difficult than collecting this from the land.
02:38And, you know, it's a paper cup.
02:47This is also cool too, because of the nature.
02:50It's a very similar of plastic.
02:53And, you know, if you don't even see it, but it's microplastic.
02:58I am convinced that if everyone will help me, the whole of Kashmir can be cleaned within two years.
03:10I really trust in that.
03:12I believe in that.
03:13You know, so many Kashmiris say, oh, but it will take 1000 years.
03:18No, you can teach within a generation.
03:23So.
03:25Do you think you alone can do this?
03:29Me alone?
03:30Yeah.
03:31I cannot do it alone.
03:32I need the help of all the Kashmiris.
03:35Not one.
03:36All of them.
03:47There's one.
03:48There's one.
03:49There's one.
03:50Have an old.
03:53There's often footmentation because of the timetian.
03:57You can see a layer of plastic and you don't even see it, but it's microplastic.
04:04So then also real urban plastic.
