 Wastes and environment Wastes are produced in our day to day life. They are produced either naturally or artificially by human. The erosion, landslides, flood, plants unwanted products are naturally produced wastes. Likewise, pollutants from vehicles, industries, nuclear explosions are artificially pollutants. These pollutants are all artificially produced wastes. These wastes have severe environmental hazards. The proper management of these wastes should be done. The wastes are either degradable or non degradable. The non degradable wastes can be plastics or chemicals. The disposal of all these wastes should be done on separate containers of different colors so that it's easier for identification. Wastes in the environment are of several kinds. Knowingly or unknowingly, every aspects of environment is producing it. However, the impact of wastes produced by human being is very vulnerable in the present scenario. Mostly, I will focus on food wastes now. In the world, 1 in 9 people have to sleep on empty stomach every night, and tonnes of food is ended up in bin. The production reach the table, but ends in bin in large amount. This is a critical issue. It not only raises the problem of food waste, but also has severe impact on environment and other hungry people in universe. The food in the bin is responsible for the production of several environment degrading gases like carbon dioxide and many others. The food that end in bin can be the nutrition for several hundreds of hungry people. Unknowingly, the food that people waste is Killing lots of life, and also degrading environment. So, here I plead you to buy only the amount you need, don't store and spend extravagently. Please, be food conscious and environment conscious. We are healthy, only when our environment is healthy.
