I will mindfully observe and minimize the waste generated by me on a daily basis.

Did you know every Indian city has at least one man-made mountain where ‘waste’ generated in our homes and businesses end up. About 90% of the staggering 150,000 metric ton of urban solid wastes generated everyday make their way to such locations. Called dump yards, landfills or garbage mountains, most of these toxic sites are two to three decades old and currently receive 2,000 (Bhalswa) to 9,000 (Deonar) metric tons of solid waste daily. Communities that live near landfills face complex challenges because of the toxic air and water that surrounds these landfills.
