Background

Koramangala generates high organic waste volumes with limited landfill capacity nearby.

Current Situation

Mixed waste collection led to methane odours and pest problems near community parks.

Environmental Impact

Installed three-bin aerobic composters; trained households on segregation; weekly pick-up roster.

Actions Taken

2 tonnes organic waste composted monthly; 180 households participating; garden soil distributed free.

Results

Apartment towers still send mixed waste; need stricter BBMP enforcement.

Future Recommendations

Start with one street pilot; publish monthly impact dashboard; partner with local nurseries for compost use.
