Carry your own
cloth or jute bag when you go shopping.
Say no to all
plastic bags as far as possible.
Reduce the use of
paper bags also.
Reuse the soft
drinks polybottles for storing water.
Segregate the
waste in the house –keep two garbage bins and see to it that the biodegradable and
the nonbiodegradable is put into separate bins and dispose off separately.
Dig a compost pit
in your garden and put all the biodegradables into it.
See to it that
all garbage is thrown into the municipal bin as the collection is generally done from
there.
When you go out
do not throw paper and other wrappings or even leftover food here and there, make sure
that it is put in the correct place, that is into a dustbin.
As far as
possible try to sell all the recyclable items that are not required to the Kabariwala
(person who trades in waste).
