Sab Ganda Hai Per Dhandha Hai Yeh - Professional Waste Management Landscape of India.
Approx. 73 mn MT is the solid waste that India generates, most of this unfortunately lands up in the landfill to generate methane gas which is 21 times more hazardous than Carbon Dioxide! One of the ways we as citizens can contribute is by segregating our waste, now more than ever before - the risk of contamination through our waste increases many fold if not appropriately segregated.
Here's a conversation with Mr. Goutham Reddy, MD and CEO of one of the largest professionally run waste management company Ramky Enviro Engineers Ltd - REEL. The company has proved that, while there is money to be made in waste, while treating it appropriately to reduce environmental impact. Mr. Reddy vide this podcast has shared information on the Macro Landscape of the country, how the pandemic has increased the need for segregating our waste at source and what to do with the hazardous waste we generate - pre, during and post pandemic.
Cleanliness begins at home and this 73 mn MT Mammoth too will reduce, mainly from our very own kitchens!
