Garbage - Disposal and Clearing!
The only contribution many of us have made to this city we live in is the garbage we dispose. Like most cities, the majority of us want to live clean looking, well maintained lives and want all the muck we create to be cleared by someone else and self-righteously maintain our payment of taxes as our contribution. But, the issue is beyond that. 1. Can we minimize the garbage we create in our homes, offices, social gatherings, etc.? 2. Can we spend time to do some responsible segregation /disposal / recycling / reuse? The following mail from Mr. Narayanan (editor, paadam mangazine) highlights one important related issue for all of us to be aware of . To me the issue of the bad treatment of the sewage cleaning personnel by the Corporation is not independent of our own understanding of garbage and practices around its dis posal. ------------------------------------------------------------------- 5 th November 2009....
