Environment: Not about the birds and the bees but about LIFE, and the sources of life.

Sources of Life
Vital Organs of the Earth: Trees & Forests - Lungs Land and Soil - Skin and Flesh Sea & Waterways - Blood & Bloodstream
About 70% of the Human Body and the Earth is Water

How do WE harm the environment?

Pollution Basura/Garbage

Waste vs. Garbage

Waste Biodegradable/Nabubulok (60%) Non-Biodegradable/Di-Nabubulok (40%) Recyclable/Nabebenta (30%) Residual/Di-Nabebenta (10%)

Waste vs. Garbage

Garbage Mixed waste

Compost
Composting is life renewing itself. Compost site? Size depends on volume of waste Apartment? Condo? Clay Pot! To hasten compost: Shred, Worms, Trichoderma

Recycle
Recyclable Wastes: Junk Shop- Turn your Trash into Cash!
Residual Wastes: Extend the life Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) Cement Factories

What do we do with plastic?

How do WE implement SWM?

Teach it Set it up (Engineering) Enforce it Sustain it Find livelihood

How do we teach SWM?

Learn it by doing it
Teach by example Spread the word

How do you set it up?

Have properly labeled trash bins Set up an MRF (Materials Recovery Facility)
Composting Area Recyclables Storage Area (for pick up)
