Every April 22, Earth Day is a reminder that the little choices we make every day can add up to something big—especially in the kitchen. From swapping out single-use items to cutting back on food waste or switching to gentler cleaners, one simple change is all it takes to make a difference.

Here are 5 easy, eco-friendly kitchen habits to help you waste less, save more, and live a little greener starting today.

Swap Paper Towels for Reusable Cloths
Paper towels might be convenient, but they generate a lot of waste. Try using reusable cloths or old t-shirts cut into rags instead. They’re washable, absorbent, and way more sustainable in the long run.

Clean the Green Way with ITC Nimeasy
Why use harsh chemical cleaners when you can go opt for a neem-based alternative like ITC Nimeasy, its Enzyme Technology* gives a powerful Lift Off Action^ that eases removal of the layer of stuck on food particles, oil and heavy grease. The refreshing Lemon Citrus fragrance leaves the utensils smelling clean and the dishwash gel leaves behind no residue, unlike a bar.

“As someone who spends a lot of time in the kitchen, I’m always looking for products that are not just effective but also aligned with a sustainable lifestyle. ITC Nimwash has become a go-to for cleaning my fresh produce — it provides 100% natural action* and gives me peace of mind. And ITC Nimeasy? A total game-changer for tackling greasy dishes without scrubbing, with the power of neem & citrus extracts! Both are simple swaps that make my kitchen routine cleaner, greener, and a whole lot easier,” says Sohail Khan, a Mumbai based food influencer.

Buy in Bulk and Store Smart
Reduce plastic packaging waste by buying pantry staples in bulk. Store them in reusable glass jars or steel containers for a clutter-free, sustainable kitchen.

Choose Seasonal and Local Veggies
Eating with the seasons is not just great for your health — it also helps the planet. Seasonal produce requires fewer resources to grow and transport. Once you bring them home, clean them the natural way with ITC Nimwash to remove any residual chemicals, waxes, or grime. ITC Nimwash offers 100% natural action* is made with neem and citrus extract that effectively removes dirt, wax, as well as provided 99.9% germ protection.*

Compost Your Kitchen Waste
Rather than throwing away vegetable peels, fruit scraps, and used tea leaves or coffee grounds, try starting a small compost bin at home. It’s easier than it sounds — even a bucket on a balcony can do the trick. Composting turns everyday kitchen waste into nutrient-rich soil, perfect for terrace gardens, potted plants, or even sharing with a neighbour who gardens.

This Earth Day, make a simple shift—start in the kitchen. Choosing sustainable products can help keep your space cleaner, safer, and a little kinder to the planet. It’s an easy way to do good, right where you are.
