This document discusses plastic waste management issues and solutions in India. It notes that while plastics have beneficial properties, thin plastic bags and other single-use plastics have created solid waste problems due to improper disposal. Solutions discussed include segregating waste at source, incentivizing recycling, encouraging technologies like cement kiln co-processing of plastics, and implementing uniform regulations on plastic bags. Case studies show examples of effective waste segregation and management programs. The recommendations call for stronger packaging waste rules, better implementation of waste management policies, uniform bag thickness rules, and more support for recycling activities.
Whenever word plastic comes to our mind the first thing that strikes is HARMFUL!
So here is a little presentation to show how to convert that harmful thing into something innovative :)
ENJOY
This ppt describes the usage of plastics and its management
Though plastics has huge applications, it has various harm fullness. So we need to find methods to manage plastic waste.
This is study to assess the potential of using “WASTE PLASTIC RECYCLING MACHINE”. We are working together to find ways to work with plastic waste, Plastic pollution is a huge problem regarding all of us. We want to find a solution and fix this. now plastic has become a warning to entire ecosystems and societies. we want to show the world the incredible opportunities of plastic waste in order to eliminate plastic pollution, we are made from basic materials are very affordable and easy to build. Their simplicity allows effective maintenance and easy repair. The machines are also modular so they can be adapted to different contexts and needs. This resource (plastic) locate around everywhere can become a source of income or an educational tool for your community.
Today plastic disposal is the major problem faced by the world,so in order to curb that pollution, it is our responsibility to use less plastics and recycle it.
Plastic pollution is the accumulation of plastic products in the environment that adversely affects wildlife, wildlife habitat and humans.
Harmful chemicals from plastics can seep underground and contaminate water.
Similarly harmful chemicals from plastics enter our body through the sea food and causing deases
Right now the Movement Of "Say No To Single Use Plastic" is on every where so i made this small presentation for Public Awareness. I Referred The Book Which is published By U.N.with Name single Use Plastic_sustainability.
I am sure it will motivate many by saying that NO TO SINGLE USE PLASTIC After watching this presentation.

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.
Prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii infection in domestic animals in District Ban...Open Access Research Paper
Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular zoonotic protozoan parasite, infect both humans and animals population worldwide. It can also cause abortion and inborn disease in humans and livestock population. In the present study total of 313 domestic animals were screened for Toxoplasma gondii infection. Of which 45 cows, 55 buffalos, 68 goats, 60 sheep and 85 shaver chicken were tested. Among these 40 (88.88%) cows were negative and 05 (11.12%) were positive. Similarly 55 (92.72%) buffalos were negative and 04 (07.28%) were positive. In goats 68 (98.52%) were negative and 01 (01.48%) was recorded positive. In sheep and shaver chicken the infection were not recorded.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
Climate Change All over the World .pptxsairaanwer024
Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

PLASTIC BAGS ARE UNDER SCANNER
9. DISPOSAL
Issue:
Plastics are blamed as the major cause of MSW problem
Facts:
• According to studies plastics form about 5% of total MSW in
major Indian Metros
• A recent study at Deonar dumping area (Mumbai) reveals
that ~ 90 % of plastics waste brought to the landfill are picked
up by rag pickers and sold to waste trades for recycling
11. ISSUE – INDIAN CONTEXT
WHILE ALL SOLID / THICK PLASTICS WASTE IS
SYSTEMATICALLY PICKED UP BY THE WASTE COLLECTORS FOR
RECYCLING, DISPOSAL OF THIN PLASTIC CARRY BAGS, SINGLE-
USE PLASTIC WASTE AND MULTI-LAYER PACKETS,
ABANDONED BY THE WASTE PICKERS, HAVE CREATED
SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT PROBLEM.
12. PLASTIC CARRY BAGS : INDIAN RULES
• IN THE STATES OF MAHARASHTRA, GOA, WEST BENGAL,
MEGHALAYA, PUNJUB, HIMACHAL PRADESH, KERALA THE
THICKNESS RULE VARIES FROM 30 TO 70 MICRONS
• IN DELHI , CHANDIGARH , BHUBANESWAR AND J & K,
PLASTICS CARRY BAGS ARE BANNED
• ALL OTHER STATES FOLLOW MoEF RULE OF 20 MICRONS
13. SOLUTION TO DISPOSAL PROBLEM
• Segregation at source – awareness among citizens against
littering
• Proper system for collection of segregated wastes for facilitating
recycling
• Incentives / encouragement for recycling
• Upgradation of the existing mechanical recycling technology
• Encouragement for alternate methods of recycling / recovery of
energy
