One of the biggest and most important issues in recent times is waste disposal, as our planet is suffering greatly from the incorrect disposal of all existing waste.We know that this is a major challenge facing today's society, because at the same time as we are advancing with so much technology to help us in our daily lives, we are also producing a lot of waste which, if disposed of incorrectly, will end up damaging our survival here on earth. If you are interested in the conscious disposal of waste, finding out how to dispose of it or reuse it, follow this article.

Before any information on the correct disposal of waste, we must understand that consumption must be conscious, because in many situations we consume out of compulsion and not need. It is important to know that information is the main tool for changing our behavior. So help us improve life on our planet.

But how do we know where we can dispose of our waste properly if there are still places that don't have selective waste collection points? I know that the journey through this process is a long one, but we don't have much time to lose.  There are many places where we can find out about selective waste collection points, such as websites that give us the routes to reach them.Many municipalities are already partnering with waste recycling companies, which not only reuse disposable waste, but also make us aware of the positive attitudes we should take to preserve our environment. There are also companies that collect waste so that it can be properly disposed of (batteries, electronic materials), such as supermarkets, stores, banks and others.

The best way to dispose of organic waste is through composting, as this is the most sustainable way to recycle it and turn it into organic fertilizer, without pesticides. But the reality of turning organic waste into fertilizer or humus is still quite timid, as all over the world it is still disposed of in landfills, places that end up capturing leachate and bad smells, which pollute the soil and water and also proliferate diseases in humans and animals.

The selective collection of the waste we produce must be done by all citizens so that we can preserve our planet and live with a better quality of life and ensure that future generations can also live healthily and enjoy the beauty and wonders that our planet earth offers us. Selective waste collection prevents the spread of disease and contamination of soil and water, so do your bit as an inhabitant of this planet that is our home and take good care of it.
