Today, all residents of the CIS countries practically live in spontaneous garbage dumps. Picnic spots are very popular, where it was so pleasant to relax until they were filled with garbage. These are the roadsides. These are the slopes of railroad embankments, along which summer cottages are located. And there are many more such "reserved" places. Rubbish accumulates in tons. The issue of recycling and using it is very acute today.
Instructions
Step 1
Stop throwing away what may still be useful to you, and do not buy what you absolutely do not need.
Step 2
Classify garbage by type: food waste, plastic, glass. And also - garbage subject to special disposal (batteries, accumulators, fluorescent lamps, mercury thermometers, etc.). Create a separate bin for each type of waste. Or by dividing all garbage into two large groups: organic garbage or inorganic garbage, and within these groups establish subspecies. For example, organic waste that is destroyed by relatively rapid decay: food waste, crop residues, etc. Classification and collection of garbage by type will give you the opportunity to analyze the amount of it and determine what and how can be reused from it.
Step 3
Think about how you personally can use the trash. For example, let food waste be fed to livestock or processed into organic fertilizers in compost pits (if you have a land plot, of course). Hand over paper and old things made from natural fabrics to waste paper collection points, metal - to scrap metal collection points. Today, plastic collection points have appeared in many cities. You will receive small money, but you will do a good deed worthy of a resident of the 21st century. Using car tires will help make, for example, a playground or a front garden near the house - it is quite possible to fence them off with used tires by painting the tires in different colors. In addition, there are technologies that make it possible to produce special coatings from old tires, which are also covered with playgrounds. On such sites, children are not afraid to fall - after all, they frolic on rubber mats.
Step 4
Come up with a new life for old things yourself. Learn, for example, the "patchwork" technology - weaving or sewing from old patches. Create works of art! Like, for example, Catherine Spence is a sculptor who uses garbage in her works. Build a trash house like Dan Phillips.
