Causes and positive change all over the world.
India faces major environmental challenges associated with waste generation and inadequate waste collection, transport, treatment and disposal.
Current systems in India cannot cope with the volumes of waste generated by an increasing urban population, and this impacts on the environment and public health.
80% of collected waste goes to dump sites affecting both surface and groundwater, and contaminating soil, air and water bodies.
Uncollected waste creates pollution in localities along with bad odor and various health hazards.
Current procedures are not ideal for waste segregation at source of wet and dry Waste management procedures.
No stress on building infrastructure of waste segregation and recycling units, leads to more major problems in waste management.
Major Problems
Lack of infrastructure of waste collection and segregation facilities, Waste recycling, BioWaste processing, and less incineration facilities.
Shortage of qualified engineers and environmental professionals with the experience to deliver improved waste management systems in India.
The Waste Management modules
The Waste Management Can be divided as per the following modules.
Key Measures
Segregation at Source
Household level segregation into wet, dry and domestic hazardous waste.
Effective Waste Disposal
This strategy will ensure that landfills are purposefully located to ease waste collection, transfer, and monitoring/recycling.
Strict Regulatory Laws
Strict laws should be made to ensure smooth regulation of waste management practices.
ECO Friendly Materials
Use of non-plastic material should be encouraged to protect the environment.
Awareness
Campaigns should be organized to make people aware of waste management practices.
Adoption of Key Elements
Reduce, Reuse and Recycle strategy might be adopted.
On Spot fines
People who litter on public places should be fined on spot so as not to repeat mistakes.
Use of Biodegradable Plastic
The composition of Bio-plastics results in far less environmental pollution as compared to petroleum based plastic..
Use of Thermal Waste treatment
This treatment reduces the volume and mass of the waste, and also generates thermal and/or electrical energy.
Volunteers do not necessarily have the time; they just have the heart.
