About Aditya Kumar

Detail-oriented individual with a high interest in Earth Sciences looking to specializing in Environmental Services. This field interests me and I would love to dedicate my future working in this field especially the sectors associated with Human Settlement.I come from a small town in India named Varanasi. It is believed to be one of the oldest cities of the world but has been left far behind the world when it comes to keeping up with changing times. Especially in the area of waste management. I have literally grown around filth throughout my early days. It was not a problem for me since that is what I grew up seeing and through the world was alike. Until I grew up and moved to different places. I understood the suffering people are going through back in my home town.Going to different places I found that there are a lot of cities like my locality and hometown throughout the world. And there are also cities that are opposite of where I have grown up in terms of waste and its management. I felt why can’t every city be clean and healthy. I felt like there’re not effort being put for this cause.Thus, I decided to take the initiative to work to improve these conditions.I along with my childhood friend who lived in the same locality and had the same vision as mine conceptualized this organization during our college days and this is even before we got to know about blockchain technology. Over a period of time, we researched in this area on ways to improve the present scenario and have come up with Swachhcoin. “Swachh” in the Hindi Language means Cleanliness.
