Every great change
begins with a
conversation.
The Flask Club began with a single question : what if one small daily habit could help a planet choking on plastic? The Answer turned into a movement.
Every year, India discards billions of plastic bottles. Most end up in landfills, waterways, and soil — breaking into microplastics that enter the food chain, the air, and ultimately our bodies. The scale of the problem is staggering. The solution, it turns out, is elegantly simple.
Dr. Urvashi Mittal social entrepreneur, and passionate environmentalist known as The flask lady— Led the change instead of waiting for it. She picked up a steel flask, gathered a group of like-minded women in Delhi, and started asking others to do the same. What happened next surprised even her.
Within months, the Flask Club community had grown into a vibrant network of eco-conscious individuals across India, running campaigns, hosting events, pinning new members, and inspiring families, offices, and schools to ditch single-use plastic for good.
Today, with many committed volunteers and several eco campaigns completed. The Flask Club / The Flask Ladies is proof that transformation doesn't require grand gestures. It requires consistent, community-driven action — one sip at a time.
Our Problem
Over 400 million tons of plastic waste are generated globally each year, according to the UN Environment Programme (UNEP). This includes billions of plastic bottles and trillions of plastic bags, underscoring the urgent need to reduce single-use plastics worldwide. UN environment programme
Our Answer
A durable steel flask replaces many plastic bottles per person per year. Simple. Effectively reusable.
Our Power

How a gathering became
a Revolution
The launch of The Flask Club / Ladies was unlike any ordinary event. Dr. Urvashi Mittal didn't open with a PowerPoint presentation or a policy brief. She opened with an animated film — one she had commissioned to explain, in vivid, accessible storytelling, why the world's plastic addiction had become an emergency that required personal action. Then came an original music video, with lyrics written by Dr. Mittal herself, freshly composed in a studio, featuring the very first batch of Co-Flask Ladies performing on the same song Chal Chal Chal Kar Kar Kar the theme song of the flask club . The energy in the room shifted — from awareness to commitment.
THE VISION
Dr. Urvashi Mittal conceives the initiativeAlarmed by India's mounting plastic crisis, Dr. Urvashi Mittal begins developing a community-based model that puts daily habit change — not just awareness — at the centre.

THE COMPAIGNS
Eco drives across DelhiCommunity campaigns spread into corporate offices, schools, RWAs, and public spaces — collecting plastic for recycling, distributing steel flasks, and inspiring thousands of pledge-takers.
THE MILESTONE
Many committed volunteers— and growingThe Green Sip Community now spans the length and breadth of Delhi, with conversations already expanding to other Indian cities. The mission remains the same: one flask, one choice, one changed habit at a time.
Dear Friend,
The colours of a festival may fade, but the canvas of reality endures — painted with the stark truth of plastic's toll. the trees, wilt the flowers, and choke the very Earth that sustains us.
Yet amidst this bleak backdrop, I find hope. Not in waiting for someone else to act — but in the extraordinary power of ordinary people making one small, consistent choice.
At The Flask Club, we are not trying to banish plastic from the world overnight. We are reclaiming its purpose — using it thoughtfully, reducing it deliberately, and replacing it wherever we can with something that lasts. A steel flask is not just a container. It is a daily declaration of the world you want to live in.
Join us. Carry your flask. Inspire someone else to carry theirs. And together, let us paint a future where sustainability and progress entwine.
