Summary

Description
English: India’s Vidyut Mohan was named amongst five winners in a ceremony held in London on Sunday (October 17). His initiative called Takachar was the winner in the ‘clean our air’ category and won £1 million as prize money.

Takachar develops small scale, low cost portable systems that converts farm residue into high-value bio products which enables farmers to increase their income by 30% and reduce smoke emissions by 98%, which helps improve the air quality. It could potentially cut carbon emissions by a billion tonnes in a year.

14-year-old Vinisha Umashankar made it to the list of 15 finalists and her project will receive tailored support from The Earthshot Prize Global Alliance - an unrivalled network of philanthropies, NGOs, and private sector businesses around the world who will help scale their solutions.
