Gandhi's Views on Environment
Sanitation & hygiene
• Both excretory functions should be
performed only at fixed places.
• To pass urine anywhere in a street, at any
place not meant for the purpose should be
regarded an offence.
• After passing urine at any selected place,
one should cover up the spot well with dry
earth.
• Lavatories should be kept very clean. Even
the part through which the water flows
should be kept clean. Our lavatories bring
our civilization into discredit, they violate the
rules of hygiene.
5. Cont…
• Responsibility of People towards Cleanliness to
protect the Environment:
• Gandhiji said, “So long as you do not take the
broom and the bucket in your hands, you cannot
make your towns and cities clean."
• When he inspected a model school, he told the
teachers: “You will make your institution ideal, if
besides giving the students literary education,
you have made cooks and sweepers of them."
• To the students his advice was, "If you become
your own scavengers, you will make your
surroundings clean. It needs no less courage to
become an expert scavenger than to win a
Victoria Cross."

6. Plastic

It is a light-weight, hygienic and resistant material which
can be moulded in a variety of ways and utilized in a
wide range of applications.
Single-use plastics, often also referred to as disposable
plastics, are commonly used for plastic packaging and
include items intended to be used only once before they
are thrown away or recycled. These include, among other
items, grocery bags, food packaging, bottles, straws,
containers, cups and cutlery.
7. 7
Single-use plastic bags are used to carry goods
and usually provided to customers at the point of sale.
The most common shopping bags are made of a type of
plastic called polyethylene – or polythene – a tough, light,
flexible, synthetic resin obtained by polymerizing
ethylene.
Foamed plastics, commonly but often erroneously
referred to by the brand name “Styrofoam”, is the material
most widely used to produce food containers as it is rigid,
lightweight, and has good insulation properties. There are
two main types of foamed plastics: foamed polystyrenes
and foamed polyurethanes.

1. Compost structure
2. Biomedical wastes, if any, must be securely and properly sent to biomedical waste
treatment and disposal facilities as per the procedures laid out by the Pollution
Control Board.
3. Bio-methane plant for wet waste.
4. Set up an incinerator for hazardous dry/waste.
5. Strict rules need to be implemented to prevent littering on the campus.
6. Declare the entire campus as 'No Plastic Zone'.
7. Water dispensers need to be set in several locations on campus with durable and
reusable cups (bottled water as well as sale point of soft drinks and water in pet
bottles on campus need to be banned).

8. Reusable tableware and eco-friendly parcelling need to be enforced in all
food joints on campus.
9. A small part of the land on campus needs to be earmarked to set up four
separate waste processing units: one for organic waste (biogas plant/
compost), one for secondary and tertiary segregation of dry wastes, yet
another for shredding and incinerating, and a fourth one to store recyclable
wastes, construction rubble and waste residue intended for municipal landfill
and e-waste that need to leave the campus in a designated way.
10.E-waste is to be deposited with designated contractor duly authorised by the
Pollution Control Board. Refurbished computers, monitors, scanner and
printers may be donated.

11.Avoid paper pamphlets and flex banners. Instead, use reusable cloth
banners and notice boards.
12.Wet waste can be treated at source itself for the benefit of other
organisms. The wet waste from the kitchen and the canteen is to be
collected at a place so that birds, cows, dogs, goats and small animals
can feed on it. If unused food is in large quantity and not spoiled, it can be
channelled to the needy through 'Food Bank' system on the campus.
13.When institutes and offices become paperless, a lot of trash can be
reduced. Hence use emails, SMS, WhatsApp and Facebook and other
social media platforms and online resources to a certain extent.

Rainwater harvesting is the
accumulation and storage of
rainwater for reuse on-site, rather
than allowing it to run off.
Water conservation includes
all the policies, strategies and
activities to sustainably manage
the natural resource of fresh
water, to protect the hydrosphere,
and to meet the current and future
human demand.
Water Harvesting and Conservation
26. 26
1. Use rainwater effectively.
2. Make effective use of soil water
reserves.
3. Take measures to avoid run off
4. Avoid wasting water through
evaporation
5. Reduce water losses through
drainage
6. Plan your irrigation
Principles of Water Harvesting and
Conservation
27. 27
Water Conservation Rainwater Harvesting
• Adequacy of Water
• Plumbing adequacy of water taps and Sanitary
fixtures
• Water Efficient Toilets
• Dedicated Staff for Water Maintenance
• Dedicated Staff for Water Inspection
• Periodic mending and repairs of leaks in taps
and pipes
• Two levels of flushing in all the toilets
• Planting indigenous variety of plants and less
water requiring plants
• Organising water conservation workshops to
the faculty and students on the campus
• Steps taken for implementing rainwater
harvesting inside the campus
• Installation of rain gauge and rain
recording system
• Digging rainwater harvesting pits on the
campus
• Educating on Water Harvesting through
workshops/seminars
