I am shocked to see how many renowned restaurants still use plastic containers. I know the backend economics of it, and it doesn’t really cost that much to go green,” sighs environment economist and restaurateur Rashmit Arora. A Master of Science graduate in Energy, Environmental, and Food Economics from Penn State University, Arora runs the planet-friendly chain of Gracias Granny cafés in the city with his childhood friend Rajanvir Dharni.
