Waste segregation - Why ? Startup doc
We should segregate our garbage into wet and dry waste in order to recycle it rather than dump or burn it. Dumping creates toxic groundwater and burning releases toxic gases. If segregated, garbage can be reused or recycled as a resource rather than polluting the environment. Segregating at home is necessary to recycle our garbage that would otherwise haunt us with disease or pollution forever due to extremely long decomposition times for many materials.

Load forecasting is essential for power system planning to estimate future demand and energy requirements. Accurate load forecasts are needed to determine generation capacity additions, transmission and distribution infrastructure requirements, fuel procurement, and other planning decisions. Load forecasts can predict short-term (1 hour to 1 week) loads with about 1-3% accuracy but long-term (over 1 year) forecasts are less accurate due to uncertainties in weather predictions. Load forecasting helps utilities make important decisions around power purchasing, generation, and infrastructure development.

Reducing our carbon footprint
- 2. Carbon footprint (FP): is “the total set of GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions caused directly and indirectly by an individual, organization, event or product” (UK Carbon Trust 2008). Everyone in this room has a FP
- 4. Through everyday activities, consumption of resources. Use of electricity Use/consumption of water Through the food we eat Clothes/cosmetics etc.
- 5. By reminding my self and teaching my kids and family to economize – reduce, reuse and recycle. Turning off all electrical and electronic equipment when not in use. Turning off all power points when not in use: phone charger, laptops. Not leaving laptops and TVs on standby.
- 6. Turning off lights and air conditioning when not required. By using less sprays and aerosols – air freshener, insect spray, deodorant spray By using less water, stopping water wastage
- 7. By not wasting food, selecting food that are locally grown, not processed (fresh). By planting trees, looking after trees. Using less paper – printing, hand drying etc By using less plastic that will be thrown away
