Importance of waste management for environmental well-being
As our society progresses economically and socially, the waste produced would also increase. Most of our waste consists of organic, plastic and electronic wastes. Some of these waste products can be recycled and reused. Recycling and reusing are significant for providing new scope for livelihood and income as well.
Many products can be used as fashionable accessories. This idea is being tried and tested by Use Me Works, an organization working for women’s empowerment that aims to reduce wastage by reusing and recycling.
