Mantec Environmental Laboratory, NOIDA, India has started a healthy move by reducing the amount of sugar used daily in tea or coffee for his employees. In a meeting on Nov. 7th 2009 with Mr. A.S.Brara, CMD, Mantec Consultants Pvt. Ltd, it has been decided that the amount of sugar used for making tea or coffee for the employees of Mantec Environment Division will be reduced by half so as to maintain good health of their staff. As Diabetes is very common in Indian people so keeping this in mind it is a healthy drive of Mantec Environment Division for the prevention against Diabetes. In addition to this it will save the amount of sugar per day and also the cost on it.Roughly if we calculate the amount of sugar per day in Mantec -------- total no. of staff at Environment Division = 16, amount of sugar used per person = 8gm (approx.) x 2 (tea is prepared 2 times a day) = 16gm, so the amount of sugar used  is 256gm /day. and the amount of sugar used in one month is 256 x 30 =7680 gm or 7.680 Kg /month. and in one year, 7.680 x 12 = 92.16 Kg / year. The cost of sugar in indian currency is Rs.35 per Kg. so the capital expent on sugar is Rs. 3225.60 per year. so it will save Rs. 1608.30 per year, this drive is both healthy and economic...........
