How To Deal With Plastic Waste (Bahasa Inggris)
3 ways to deal with waste that are most commonly used. Apart from these methods, of course there are still many ways to deal with waste. In Indonesia, we are more familiar with the term 'throwing rubbish into the river', which is not much different from throwing rubbish into the sea. However, plastic waste should be handled specifically. There are 3 principles in dealing with plastic waste, namely 3 R (reuse, reduce and recycle) reuse, reduce use and recycle. The most effective way to deal with plastic waste is to improve behavior. Frugal, simple and environmentally friendly behavior. Simple people will apply the principle of reuse, for example reusing used bottles and plastic. Frugal people will apply the reduce principle, for example reducing the use of plastic items. Meanwhile, people who love the environment will apply the recycling principle, namely throwing plastic waste into inorganic trash. This is the most effective way to deal with plastic waste. Everything will work if these 3 principles are accompanied by a conscious and caring attitude towards the environment.
Apart from the behavioral level, the 3 principles above have also been applied in macro management. In several developed countries, using your own plastic bag when shopping is rewarded with a shopping discount. Apart from that, many waste processing factories with shredding and recycling machines have also been established. The heroes of waste recycling, namely "garbage collectors" (scavengers), should not be forgotten. It is thanks to scavengers that the recycling principle works more optimally.- Affiliation
