3 R’s of waste management

 REDUCE - To less the amount of waste in environment.


For example – Buy product in bigger
pack than small pack.
 Reuse. - It means to use again the material.
For example – Use Eco shopping bags.
 RECYCLE. - To create a new product.
For examples – From plastic bottle to
flower pots .
Challenges faced in waste
management
 Rapid urbanization – urban areas With 377 people
generate about 62 million tons of solid waste every year.
However only 43 million tons are collected and the rest
ends up untreated.

 E- waste -Is also growing concern with projection


showing a substantial increase in e – waste generation.
 Lack of adequate garbage collection infrastructure –
with only 21 million garbage collector compared to china’s 700
million.

 Sorting recyclable material – is also a problem as only about


30% of waste is properly sorted leading valuables materials like
aluminum and plastics to end up in landfills Instead of being
recycled.
