Total 21,609 Kgs
21.6 tonnes of waste was diverted away from landfilling/ dumping/ burning in the last year
CONGRATULATIONS!!
Compost generated from organic waste (food and leaves) was used in the school grounds
Focus for the year 2012-2013
• Maintain segregation, make it better! Make sure there are appropriate signs on all bins across the school campus.
• Bring e-Waste and Tetra Pak cartons from home and put it in the bins at school.
• Spread the message on waste management at home and to friends by being an example yourself.
• Spread this attitude across the city by not littering the streets. Can you hold onto your waste in your hand / bag until you find the right bin to put it in?
Focus for the year 2012-2013
• Start segregation at home.
• Contact Saahas for managing waste in apartments, offices
• Those of you who live in Koramangala visit our neighbourhood waste mgt units named Kasa Rasa – Near National Games Village and near Jyothi Nivas College.
• If you’d like to volunteer for Saahas during holidays – contact us
