A group of 5 students from Krish High School implemented a waste management project in the Senior Staff Quarters of Acharya N.G. Ranga Agricultural University. They created awareness about separating biodegradable and non-biodegradable waste. A compost pit was dug to convert biodegradable waste into manure. Residents were provided bags and asked to separate their waste for a week. Students collected the waste daily and disposed of it properly. They plan to distribute the manure to the same houses after 3-4 months.

places not only giving ugly appearance
and creating unhygienic surroundings

activity, but also polluting the earth

Once when we were passing through a street
we saw the residents of the street dumping their
house hold wastages in the open land.
Then we felt why they are polluting the earth by
throwing the wastes in the open land and why
they are wasting the wastes and not making use
of wastes.
Thus came our “WEALTH OUT OF WASTE”
concept.
 We implemented all the ideas generated.
