• With the increasing population of our cities, the
  amount of waste produced daily continues to rise,
  making it impossible to manage if not well
  managed. Poor waste management is also a
  significant contributor to environmental
  contamination, making our environment hazardous
  to living creatures.
• With the current situation requiring everyone to
  spend more time at home than ever before, it is
  even more vital that we maintain an effective
  management system within our own homes.
• Here are six essential waste management practices
  for your house to help you keep a clean and
  hygienic environment for you and your family.
  Lets look at some of them.

• 1. Waste Segregation
• Waste segregation separates everyday home waste
  into different bins based on their type, such as
  wet and dry waste. It is a procedure that can
  make waste disposal and recycling easier in
  organic waste composter machine. The first step
  we must do in our home is to separate our waste.
  Food waste, fruits and vegetable trash, meat
  waste, rotted food, and other biodegradable
  materials are examples of wet wastes, which
  typically come from the kitchen. Dry waste
  comprises non-biodegradable materials such as
  plastic, paper, glass, metal, clothing, and other
  materials that do not decompose in the soil.

• 2. The 3 R Method
• The 3 R approach is an efficient way to keep as
  much material out of the landfill as possible and
  establish a robust material cycle society through
  the effective use of resources and materials,
  especially as the amount of technological and
  plastic waste grows dramatically.
• The three Rs are Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle.
• Reducing involves deciding to use materials or
  resources with extreme caution, resulting in less
  waste being created. The act of reusing waste
  involves utilizing it again and again. Reusing
  entails the recurrent use of resources or
  materials that are still usable. The process of
  using waste as a resource is known as recycling.

• 3. Avoid Plastics
• When plastic is dumped, it emits dangerous
  greenhouse gases and takes 500-1000 years to
  disintegrate, making plastic pollution a more
  significant threat to the environment than
  nuclear weapons. As a result, it is beyond time
  to find a sustainable and environmentally
  responsible replacement. Carry your shopping
  bags, consider using plastic-free drinking
  containers, and avoid using plastic bags as a
  first step to quitting the plastic habit.
  Stainless steel, glass, platinum silicone,
  beeswax coated fabric, natural fiber cloth,
  bamboo, and other durable alternatives to plastic
  are already available.

• 4. Minimal purchasing habits
• Stop buying things you do not need. It is a
  simple yet effective way to decrease household
  trash. The purchase of anything created a demand
  for that product, resulting in its production and
  waste. One of the most critical stages to
  reducing waste is to adopt minimal purchasing
  habits by rejecting the things you dont need and
  appreciating and maximizing the materials and
  resources you already have.

• 5. Adopt composting
• Another waste management practice that we should
  use in our homes is composting. Home composting
  is an effective and environmentally beneficial
  way to manage your kitchen waste (organic waste).
  Certain inedible parts of leftovers or scraps of
  food or vegetables might be transformed into
  compost to feed and replenish the soil.
  Composting food waste produces a product that may
  be used to increase soil quality, which can then
  be utilized for your garden or indoor plants
  after some time (six weeks or more). Composting
  can be done outside (on a balcony, terrace, or
  roof) or within the kitchen, if space is limited.

• 6. Responsible disposal
• The waste must be handled or disposed of safely
  and responsibly, without affecting the
  environment. Following local norms and
  regulations after sorting the items into reusable
  and recyclable categories, attempt to categorize
  them further (hardware, oversized, toxic,
  hazardous, and E-waste) and dispose of them
  properly. Because of the current epidemic and the
  increased importance of health and cleanliness,
  ensure that you take additional care and
  precaution while disposing of waste. To minimize
  spills while discarding, wear hand gloves and tie
  up the waste bag.
