How Can We Control Our Waste in Our Home and in Our Environment?
Waste management is a critical issue that affects not only our homes but also our environment. With the increasing population and urbanization, waste production has increased significantly, causing pollution and environmental degradation. Proper waste management is essential to protect our environment, conserve resources, and promote sustainable development.
Reduce Toxicity
Use non-hazardous and less dangerous materials at work and home whenever possible. Pesticides can be replaced by Integrated Pest Management (IPM), which uses integrated pest management techniques to manage pests and insects. Safety tips include:
- Use only the necessary amount of hazardous materials if you are using them. Donate leftovers to charities or businesses that will use them.
- Follow all instructions and read product labels.
Make sure you dispose of hazardous materials such as motor oil properly. For more information, visit our dangerous waste section.
