In November 2017, India was declared the sixth most vulnerable country in the world in terms of facing extreme weather events with Haiti, Zimbabwe, Fiji, Sri Lanka and Vietnam taking top five positions in the fresh list of nations facing climate risk.
And this year, India is the global host of 2018 World Environment Day which will take place on June 5, 2018. With “Beat Plastic Pollution” as the theme for this year's edition, the world is coming together to combat single-use plastic
With less than a month before the celebrations begin, we planned to share the most common and disgusting pictures from the few of the many 'Solid Waste Disposal Sites' that our team has visited and studied over last few months.
We hope to create awareness and make everyone understand that the disposal sites/dumping cities in India are not able to cater to the increasing waste generation and has more than 60% of the reusable things esp, 'The Plastic Pollution'.
Waste Management should begin at our homes and Reduce, Reuse and Recycle of Waste is the small step that everyone can take in order to save the environment.
