Millennium Fellowship Project: Segregation at Source
The project on which we are working has three stages. We will first try to complete all the three stages in our college, and then gradually move to various other Educational Institutions and Offices situated in Delhi NCR. Following are the three stages in which we have planned to unfold our Project -
1. We will Introduce Segregated Bins so that it becomes feasible for the recycler and the institution to collect the dry recyclable material. Since our college lacks the Segregated Bins, we are carrying out a "Non-Biodegradable Dry Recyclable Waste Weekly Collection Drive" in our college.
2. We will be conducting awareness sessions to make our target audience aware about "Why we need Segregated Bins?" and" How to properly use Segregated Bins?". We will try to make them aware of the risks that Earth faces due to Climatic Change and "How Climatic Change will impact our lives?" . During these sessions, we will request them and teach them "How they can carry out waste Segregation at an individual level?". Since majority of Indian are unaware of the methods to deal with E-Waste, we will be teaching them to dispose the E-Waste in an environmentally friendly manner.
3. Our project will be relevant only if we connect the organizations in which we unfold our project with "Recyclers". We have already contacted a NOIDA based recycling organization which too intends to regularly pick up the Dry Recyclable Waste, that will be collected via the Installed Segregated Bin Systems, from those areas in which we will unfold our project.
As of now, the dry and E-Waste that we have been collecting from our college is going to the Recycler for Recycling.
