Deepam Sheth, CEO of Potential Engineering, said this is the first time AI-enabled machines have been used to clean the Yamuna of solid waste, plastic debris, and organic matter using Mechanised Weed Harvesters, and the results are impressive.

The session, titled "From Source to Seas: Science-informed pathways for transforming plastic and chemical pollution governance," was held at Taj Palace and focused on findings from the India-Norway INOPOL project. The research tracks how plastic waste and persistent organic pollutants move from land into rivers and oceans, posing risks to human health, livelihoods and ecosystems.
