Waste we produced and how we reuse/recycle them

 

The 5 main types of waste

• Solid waste
• Liquid waste
• Organic waste
• Hazardous waste
• Recyclable/reusable waste

 

Solid Waste

 Here are some of the solid wastes I collected to recycle

Plastics and bubble wraps 

More plastics and papers

What can you do with this waste?

Send them to the recycling centre! or you can also recycle the paper on your own. See the recipe here: Recycled your own paper!

You can also repurpose some of the stuff. Like how I use an empty jam jar to store various little things (like buttons and needles)

Liquid waste

Used cooking oil can be recycled. You can use them to make soap. Check this tutorial:Soap from used cooking oil

Organic waste

We have lots of organic waste such as banana skins, used tea powder, coffee grounds and garden waste which we made into a compose for the plants. I also used some of the coffee grounds to make a lip scrub. I will share how I make it soon so stay tuned!
