Around 3 to 4 decades back, washing area, bathroom etc. which were outside our living space. The principle reason for this was to keep the filthy and dirty activities outside our living area. Cut to, when we look at our homes today, we may have not noticed, but all these activities have come inside the living area, with attached bathroom, washing machine etc. And it is worth noting that these are more cleaner than when they were outside. If we just sit back and ponder over the change that has taken place...we would really wonder how dramatic the change is.
Today solid waste is at the same juncture, we are accustomed to dispose waste outside our homes and are accustomed to mix our waste (green, plastic, paper). But I intend to argue that, as we have developed a concept of attached bathroom (not one but many), we can have an attached Waste Recycling Area, which would deal with waste segregation, organic waste recycling etc. These waste recycling area would have following:
1. Space for waste segregation (with specially designed bins which occupy minimum space).
2. Tools for organic waste recycling.
These recycling area can be a common facility for a community, office or at individual household level. Presently there are no technological hurdles in implementing the above concept, thus with enough drive, every community can be equipped with such attached recycling area.
