There are many countries believe in recycling of garbage and they are successful but in Asian countries proper awareness as how to collect the waste and make money on it not known.
In India, 100 crore people live but still the waste is wasted. People throw the waste into sewage canal. The politician and the ministers should be taught of the recycling and they should in turn go in the street to educate the masses how to collect the waste.
Once people know what are the items which are suitable for recycling they will collect in a bag and the item cannot be recycled will be put into another bag and dumped in the dust yard.
The municipality concern must give this bag to the residence so that they can collect them and put then in lorries. This will avoid mosquito breeding, unnecessarily burning on the road which bring health hazard to the people.

Dear Subathera
Solid waste Management is really important issue
by this not only u can get rid of waste and have clean environment but sure if properly managed u can get things re cycle and save money.
Other thing when experienced people will be doin then they know how to dispose waste what to burn and what not to
i would say, if pvt sector come forward in this area then things will be more better as they will be doing as profitable business
Hope things will be changing, but sure its time taking process
ssee ya

Recycling is also not an IN thing in my country... at first the government official will try to launch a program about it but it will most often die... so i do my share by segragating those that can be recycled or sold to juck shops... from those the are suppose to end up in the dumpsites... i give the former to the garbage collector so that he can sell them and make little money out of them...

Here in the United States we are big on recycling, and conserving waste, and that is why there are New bins, and such being put out all the time. The problem for some, is knowing what is allowed to be put in these, and what is not. But I feel it is a Good way to conserve, and if you like, you can even earn some extra $$ doing this as well. Not a second income by any means, but maybe enough in time for like a meal for 2 like at McDonalds.

i do believe in recycling garbage.. its the safest way to conserve instead of destroying the earth to make new things.. if they are going to cut down trees to use as wood they should re plant the trees back.. so at the least we arent really taking away without giving back or destroying the earth... do you see what i am saying? lol. i do believe in recyling and we should recycle as much as we possibly can while we still can... if we continue to destroy the earth.. it will have to replenish it self.. and that will end up destroying us.. rather we like to hear it or not
