Is all waste really just waste? Yes you often come to hear of large corporate entities conducting recycling drives and and putting up recycling plants, sounds like a really big investment and frankly quite a tiresome task doesn’t it? Maybe we’re forgetting there is also a simpler and easier way you could be reducing your contribution to the trash can while the benefits of your actions spring up right in your very front (or back) yard!
You might remember your dadi jaan or bi ama clearing the accumulated chai ki patti from the strainer into the kyari or the lawn, or woh bachpan ke din when you’d toss the pits of the fruits you ate into the garden, hopeful of it sprouting into a tree, well you might’ve really been onto something! A number of items from our everyday waste contain nutrients that benefit soil tremendously, providing your plantations with the means to thrive!
