ENVIRONMENTAL & HEALTH ISSUES
The dumping sites are open to air & are serious danger to the residence of the nearby residential areas
The waste reach at the roads & pedestrian paths, effecting the city beauty
Birds & flies fly over the waste, becoming a source of risk to Arial accidents
The burning of waste emits CO2, NOx, depleting our Ozone layer & increasing global warming
BURNING OF WASTE EMITS CO,CO2 & OTHER DANGEROUS GASSES
THE FLYING BIRDS CAN BECOME A SOURCE OF HUGE AIRPLANE ACCIDENTS
SUGGESTIONS & IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY
Short Term Strategy: Covered waste collection bags Personnel Protection Top Covered Dumping Site Rapid movement of KMC trucks for collection of
waste Increase in the salary of waste collectors Transforming the treatment of recycle-able waste
under KMC
SUGGESTIONS & IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY
Medium & Long Term Strategy: Better waste collecting vehicles
Converting secondary dumping site into GTS with modern facility of waste segregation
Proper landfill site operation with additional facility of composting, waste to energy, hazardous material disposal & bio gas formation
I THANK YOU ALL
