Primary aim to give ‘new life’ to used plastics through Recycling The aim of the project is to improve the local environment with good mechanism and offering continuous employment to individuals from socially and economically disadvantaged groups. Key purpose to avoid landfill and to prevent Plastic Pollution: Is this project a good solution to the plastics? Yes, the project is a solution to the land-fill problem in the cities. “The service is designed to reduce the requirement for the landfill disposal of plastics packaging waste, which until now, has been the option for country like India. Landfill disposal is already overburdened in Visakhapatnam City and subject to increasingly tight environmental legislation. These increasing restrictions make landfill disposal less financially viable and less attractive to the waste generator. To avoid the following, we take up this project. a) Environmental Degradation, Threat to Human Health & Animals. A high percentage of waste workers and individuals who live near or on disposal sites are infected with gastrointestinal parasites, worms, and related organisms. For the public, the main risks to health are indirect and related to poor water, land, and air quality. In addition, infrequent collection of waste provides an attractive breeding ground for flies and rats. Consuming food wrapped in coloured plastic has adverse effects on health; municipalities routinely receive reports of death of cows and other animals from ingesting plastic bags. b) Plastics Handling Challenges Across India: Landfill & Damage to Agriculture. Throughout the country, Waste Management has become a challenge to Municipal Staff due to (1) Legislative pressures (where waste to landfill must be reduced by 35% by 2020) (2) Rising Costs (3) The generation of explosive greenhouse gases (such as methane) (4) The poor biodegradability of commonly used packaging polymers.
