Gated community in Velachery harvests first compost

Chennai | Saturday | 14th July, 2018

Summary:

The green bin is meant for collecting organic waste, red bin for reject waste and the bag to store recyclable waste. Every day, around 90 to100 kg of bio-degrdable waste and 10 to 12 kg of recyclable waste are generated. Ramaniyam Eden Flat Owners Association started promoting waste segregation among residents of the gated community in February. Next, the gated community plans to educate vendors in the vicinity of Ramaniyam Eden to avoid using polythene carry bags. We have not weighed the “reject” waste yet..
