If you ever been to Germany or Japan, you might encounters not only on garbage can. Sometimes there are 3 different color of garbage can. It is because they are separated by their elements. This is a very important things to consider when you are in those country, or maybe in country which has the same rule, because you can be accused for violation if you don't separated your garbage in appropriate manner.

Garbage separation is a process which garbage is sorted and separated into different elements. Waste segregation means dividing waste into dry and wet. 

Dry waste covers for metal, glass, solid material that you can't feel any water element within. 

Wet waste is the opposite, usually organic and are heavy in weight due to the dampness.

Waste can also be segregated on basis of biodegradable or non-biodegradable waste, categories that are common:
  • Paper
  • Cardboard
  • Residual Waste
  • Compost
  • Plastics
  • Scrap Metal
  • Etc
That is all information i want to share, be careful when you are living or visiting those countries. Thank you

    Well shared!
    Here is UAE as well the segregation of waste happens at a large scale. Apart from usual different bins as you have also shared, the authorities have put giant bins to collect the cartons & paper. These bins have been placed in market areas where the shopkeepers open the cartons to take our household & other items.
    Previously, these were thrown in the garbage. Now because of large bins, they can be easily disposed & collected for recycling.
