What do you understand when we say waste management? The Eco Grid Energy defines waste management as the collection, treatment and proper
disposal of home waste materials especially the hazardous waste. As far back as
the 8000 BC, people disposed their waste outside their homes. In Europe and
Asia, waste was collected in clay containers and then hauled away from the
community. During the 15th century, the city councils paved the
streets to prevent people from stepping on waste and feces. Cleanliness was
imposed under stiff penalties. The garbage cans were then introduced to prevent
the spread of bacteria and viruses, which caused plague to humans. The cholera
epidemic in the 19th century claimed about 380,000 lives in Prussia
alone. Let us recognize the link between public health measures and mortality
as very much associated with proper waste disposal. To this very day, there is
a very direct relationship between environmental hygiene and the formation of
life threatening diseases especially in the developing countries.
Life and waste - waste into energy or waste into killer
bacteria
How do you understand the risk of not adopting proper waste
health measures? Your waste could either save you money, send you money, or
send you life threatening diseases if not properly managed. The epidemic has
every capacity and capability to spread globally unchecked. Clearing up
pollutants could help clean up the air in our places tremendously. The Eco Grid
Energy acknowledges the idea of making biomass fuel to use not only in our
homes but also, in our vehicles. Other biofuels can also be derived from the
biomass such as the methane gas, which is produced during the decomposition of
the green waste. Methane is a threat if we allow it to escape freely.
Small changes, big difference
