Community question

"How can we reduce plastic waste in our locality?"

Login to respond

Background

Chambal ghats attract pilgrims and tourists but lack consistent waste management infrastructure.

Current Situation

Plastic bottles and food wrappers accumulated along 1.2 km of ghat steps after festival season.

Environmental Impact

120 volunteers collected, segregated, and sent waste to recycling partners; awareness stalls distributed cloth bags.

Actions Taken

800 kg plastic diverted from river; local municipality committed to weekly bin placement.

Results

Recycling partner capacity limited; some mixed waste still rejected.

Future Recommendations

Install permanent segregation bins; run monthly drives; ban single-use plastic vendors during festivals.
