Coconut seller

KC Sijoy, the founder of Koocos Industries in Thrissur, Kerala spent 10 years designing a mechanical device that can peel tender coconuts in 40 seconds per piece.

Let’s hope many more take a leaf out of these sellers’ books and adopt such innovative ways to reduce plastic usage.

In a world where abundance leaves us in wants, the problem of shortage may not be the lack of efficiency but greed masquerading as need.
