Sustainable waste management

Bringing ready-to-cook food will reduce the amount of food waste entering the city.

Recently, Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) published a public notice asking people to segregate biodegradable and non-degradable waste before giving it to the collectors. Several people support this idea and believe that this will miraculously solve the waste management situation in Kathmandu. There is a discussion going on about producing compost from biodegradable waste, recycling what can be reused and incinerating the rest. All these ideas sound suitable for waste management, but the million-dollar question is whether these waste management ideas are feasible and practical for Kathmandu.
