Who is Responsible?

Who's responsible for waste?

The simple answer is everyone. It is your responsibility to properly manage the wastes that are generated by your lifestyle choices.

In Schools

It is the obligation of the school to model responsible waste management to all students and then ensure that this is put into practice. Simply teaching students about waste management is not sufficient - the message is only credible if the school develops and implements a permanent waste management program. If your school practices the 3R's of waste, then the environment will benefit. Those benefits include the conservation of our resources, lower levels of air and water pollution, and reduced greenhouse gas generation, to name just a few.
