Winners of Youth for Earth 2025 Junior Category 1st Position PROJECT PEELFLEX This innovative sustainability initiative transforms discarded banana peels into biodegradable, flexible fiber sheets, offering an eco-friendly alternative to plastic and synthetic materials. Developed through a low-cost, chemical-free, and home-replicable process, PeelFlex empowers students, women, and artisans to convert agro-waste into valuable products such as book covers, wallets, coasters, and packaging materials. The project addresses urban waste management challenges while promoting green entrepreneurship and circular economy practices. By reducing organic waste in landfills and curbing plastic pollution, it contributes to cleaner rivers and sustainable livelihoods.PeelFlex reflects how youth-led innovation and scientific creativity can drive real change, turning everyday waste into a powerful symbol of sustainability and self-reliance. 2nd Position PROJECT ASHITIZER The project focuses on developing an eco-friendly and affordable ash-based sanitizer to promote hygiene in rural communities and government schools lacking proper handwashing facilities. Utilizing wood ash, a locally available by-product rich in natural cleansing agents like sodium and calcium, the team created a liquid sanitizer through a simple hydrolysis process. This innovation not only promotes health and sanitation but also exemplifies waste-to-resource conversion, supporting a circular economy. Demonstrated across several schools in Bilaspur, the project distributed over 53 liters of sanitizer, raising awareness about hygiene and sustainable practices. Project improving public health, reducing waste, fostering innovation, and empowering communities through local production and entrepreneurship opportunities. 3rd Position PROJECT ECO TREE 2.0 The project is designed to combat urban air pollution by mimicking natural photosynthesis through a mechanical tree. The compact system consists of a biodegradable CO₂ filtration unit that captures carbon dioxide and a microalgae-based bioreactor that converts it into oxygen, thus improving air quality and reducing carbon levels. Tested in real-world industrial settings, the prototype successfully demonstrated measurable CO₂ absorption and O₂ generation, equivalent to the output of two young trees. The project aligns with multiple UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 3, 8, 9, 11, 13, 15, and 17) by promoting green technology, sustainable cities, and eco-entrepreneurship. Beyond its technical innovation, EcoTree 2.0 serves as an educational and social tool, engaging communities, inspiring youth, and driving awareness about clean air and climate action. With future plans for solar integration, IoT networking, and large-scale deployment, the project envisions a scalable, science-driven solution for a breathable, sustainable future. 4th Position PROJECT STEPERGY The project, focuses on harnessing renewable energy through piezoelectric technology, which converts mechanical energy from footsteps into electrical energy. The project aims to reduce dependency on conventional energy sources by generating clean power from human movement in high-footfall areas such as schools, metro stations, and shopping centers. The students designed and implemented piezoelectric tiles that capture and store energy to power small devices like LEDs and sensors, promoting awareness about green energy and sustainability. The initiative also serves as a powerful educational tool to demonstrate scientific concepts and foster environmental responsibility among students. By aligning with UN SDGs 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) and 13 (Climate Action), the project showcases how innovative, youth-driven solutions can contribute to building smarter, energy-efficient, and sustainable cities. 5th Position PROJECT NATURES WEAPON YOUTH’S MISSION The project, focuses on promoting the traditional and scientific significance of Azadirachta indica (Neem) as a natural solution for sustainable living.

The data collected through an ESP32 microcontroller is transmitted to the cloud and displayed via a custom web dashboard, offering real-time insights on waste type, bin fill levels, and area-wise waste generation trends. The project aims to create a data-driven waste management solution that enhances efficiency, supports recycling, and promotes smart city goals. Beyond automation, the initiative also includes a Waste Reduction App that encourages households to track waste habits and earn reward points, promoting citizen engagement and eco-conscious living. Aligned with SDGs 9, 11, 12, and 13, the project exemplifies how technology, innovation, and community participation can drive sustainable waste solutions for a cleaner and smarter future. 2nd Position PROJECT CDP Bricks The project introduces an innovative solution to tackle construction and demolition (C&D) waste and plastic pollution by transforming these materials into sustainable, high-quality building bricks. Using a systematic process of waste segregation, crushing, melting, and molding, the team successfully developed Construction and Demolition Plastic (CDP) Bricks that match or surpass traditional clay bricks in strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness. This eco-friendly innovation not only reduces landfill waste and carbon emissions but also conserves natural resources by eliminating the need for kiln firing and topsoil extraction. The project creates employment opportunities, promotes green construction practices, and supports affordable housing, making it both socially and environmentally impactful. CDP Bricks contribute to sustainable urban development, the circular economy, and a greener, more resilient construction industry. 3rd Position PROJECT SAMMAN The project, focuses on recycling used sanitary pads into eco-friendly products while promoting menstrual hygiene awareness. Recognizing the dual challenge of menstrual waste management and stigma around menstruation, the project introduced a sustainable recycling process that converts disposed pads into useful materials such as tiles, bricks, and insulation boards, thereby reducing landfill burden and plastic pollution. Alongside the recycling innovation, the initiative conducts awareness campaigns, school workshops, and community drives to educate young girls and women about menstrual hygiene and waste segregation. By integrating technology, social responsibility, and environmental consciousness, Samman creates employment opportunities for marginalized women and supports SDGs, promoting health, gender equality, sustainable consumption, and climate action.
