World Environment Day 2024: Rochelle Rao and Keith Sequeira put on their gloves and dug out all the trash trapped in the sand at Mumbai’s Juhu beach, while their baby Josephine observed from afar. Rochelle’s frown and concern were visible as she pointed out the beautiful shells and the heaps of plastic around asking which of the two belonged there. “The beach is where our heart is. When I see the beach in this state, in my city, I feel like it`s 100 percent my responsibility to do something about it. It`s 10 minutes away from my house and it`s a few hours of my time. So, this is close to my heart,” she said. Watch the video for more.
Power couple and new parents Rochelle Rao and Keith Sequeira invited mid-day.com to join them for a cleanup drive at Mumbai`s Juhu beach. The two asserted that this was the best way to celebrate Mother`s Day 2024 with their baby girl Josephine tagging along for a meaningful cause. Keith said, "We wanted to introduce her at a very early age to what it means to be aware of your environment and sort of just sort of inculcate it. It`s not a serious thing. It`s just like fun, but it`s a very serious issue. All of these issues, when you have a child become way more real to you because you`re like, `what is the world that I have brought my child into?` And `what is she going to have left?`."
