Green Waste Output Doubles Capacity

Indore, a bustling city in central India known for its cleanliness and innovative waste management practices, is facing a significant challenge. Recent reports indicate that the output of green waste has doubled, surpassing the capacity of existing processing units. This surge in green waste production poses a pressing issue for the city's authorities, who have prided themselves on their effective waste management strategies.

The exponential growth in green waste output can be attributed to several factors. Rapid urbanisation, coupled with an increasing population, has led to a rise in organic waste generation. Additionally, changes in consumption patterns and lifestyle choices have contributed to the mounting volume of green waste in Indore. As a result, the existing infrastructure for processing organic waste is struggling to keep pace with the escalating demand.

The ramifications of this burgeoning green waste crisis are manifold. Overflowing landfills pose environmental hazards, including soil and water contamination, as organic waste decomposes and releases harmful substances. Moreover, the accumulation of green waste exacerbates air pollution, contributing to respiratory problems and other health issues among residents.

In response to this pressing issue, city officials are exploring various solutions to alleviate the strain on existing waste management systems. One proposed measure is the expansion and enhancement of processing facilities to accommodate the surge in green waste output. Investing in advanced technologies and mechanised equipment could streamline the processing of organic waste, making it more efficient and sustainable in the long run.

Furthermore, there is a growing emphasis on public awareness and community participation in waste reduction and segregation efforts. Educating residents about the importance of composting, recycling, and responsible waste disposal practices can help mitigate the impact of escalating green waste production. By fostering a culture of environmental stewardship and civic responsibility, Indore can work towards a more sustainable future.

However, addressing the challenge of doubling green waste output requires a concerted effort from all stakeholders, including government agencies, private enterprises, and the local community. Collaborative initiatives aimed at holistic waste management and environmental conservation are essential to overcoming this pressing issue and ensuring the long-term well-being of Indore and its residents

Poor thermal performance, excessive heat gain and dependency on mechanical cooling systems made buildings with glass façades energy guzzlers and significantly increased their carbon footprint.That said, it’s important to be aware that “glass is not the enemy,” points out Heena Bhargava, Architect, Architecture Discipline. “How it is used ma..
