All about dry and wet
waste !
As per BMC guidelines residents of Mumbai are required to
separate the wet and the dry waste. Many people do not
know the difference between the two so here is all about
it.
WHAT IS DRY AND WHAT IS WET?
A simpler way of understanding is that Wet Waste is all
that comes from nature vegetables, fruits, flowers, shells
of eggs and coconuts, and food leftovers like bones, meat,
fish, bread etc. All else is which is processed and made
by man are Dry Waste- These include things made from paper
like newspapers, cartons, boxes, glass items and metal
like bulbs, tube lights, bottles, nails, cans; plastic
items such as milk-bags, soap wrappers, pouches,
toothpaste and other tubes; and some other items like
wood, battery cells, diapers, rags, thermocole etc as well
as Computer floppies, printer cartridge, CDs, tapes etc.
Wet waste can be decomposed within 24 to 48 hours into
organic fertilizer. While dry waste does not decompose and
remains for long. So it has to be disposed off by BMC. |

What a single tree does
for us! |
|
|
 |
|
Before you cut a tree see what a single
tree does for us!. A tree that lives for 50
years generates Rs. 5.3 lakhs worth of
all-important oxygen; Recycles Rs.6.4
lakhs worth of fertility and soil erosion
control; Creates Rs10.5 lakhs of shelte for
birds and animals. plus, it provides flowers,
fruits and lumber. So when you cut down a
tree, the city loses something worth lakhs!
Think. And plant trees wherever space allows. |
