Milind’s Message
Speaking on Green Ride 2.0, fitness icon Milind Soman said, “My message to people is very simple – all the growth and progress we have achieved as a society, if we have clean air to breathe. If not, it’s futile. If each of us makes a change in our daily lives, we will collectively be able to make a significant difference in our environment. I’m looking forward to this year’s ride. Because we are spreading the message of achieving a healthier and more sustainable existence.
