Waste Segregation

Waste segregation takes time to develop within our system to fully implement it. It takes discipline to develop the daily habit of putting waste that we throw each day to our garbage bin.

Discipline takes effort but it takes a little effort each day to do it until it becomes a daily habit. Instead of throwing mindlessly our trash, we should be mindful of the consequences of our actions each day, when we procrastinate to do the right thing. Take for example the cluttered waste inside the trash bin can be reduced to 75% to almost zero when we learn to segregate and help our city of big-budget on waste management.


(I use two to three plastic bags to segregate plastic, bottles and cans)

Like those plastic cups, bottles, and cans that we consume from our grocery if it is segregated, we can sell them or give them to junk shop or poor people, who collected it from our neighborhood and they can sell it to redemptions centers, or junk shops within the city.

Those cartons and newspapers that we gain overtime we can sell it also to the junk shop or some junk personnel can collect it for us for a price.

(There are five stages to create your compost as seen in the picture, just transfer the compost from one to another pot and the final is to mix it with soil and sawdust)

Those leftovers that stayed over the fridge can be eaten by our pets like, dogs or cats to prevent bad odor from our trash bin. Those onion, garlic, and other vegetable skin can be used as a compost for our garden with a combination of soil and sawdust. 
 
     (It's good to see if you plant and to see it growing, tomatoes and sampalok from our plant box)

It is amazing how can we contribute a little that if all of us can do this, we can make a difference in our environment and in our society, since waste management is the number one issue in our society and in our environment, we can make a difference by doing a little extra effort with great results.
