Businesses around the UK and the world, have to ensure that if they are ever dealing with hazardous waste, that they do so by following the rules and safely handling any waste that could be classed as hazardous.
In this guide, we will be giving you the full run down on: What waste is classed as hazardous. How to handle this waste & the punishments if any company is caught mishandling this.
Safety goggles on please...it could get dangerous!
Now you may read the title and be thinking...'What do you mean by improper waste disposal'?
Well, in a nutshell, improper waste disposal is any time that you chuck rubbish away, without using the proper techniques. This could be anything from: Littering, Burning, Dumping or Fly-Tipping!
You may not know this, but even by throwing a tiny bit of litter on the floor, you are having a big impact on the environment around you...and not in a positive way!
So you want to do your bit for your neighbourhood and start a public, community clean up?
Well, we doth our cap to you, we are proud of you...but it isn't going too be easy!
Organising a community clean up is a very powerful way of bringing people of all walks of life together for one common goal...to make your neighbourhood cleaner and create a more positive environmental living area.
Could you fit a year’s worth of waste into a single jar?
This is what a zero waste lifestyle claims to be able to do.
But, how realistic is a full, unfiltered, zero waste lifestyle?
Music Festivals like Glastonbury generate around 107 tons of solid waste daily! That is the same weight as 18 Elephants or 54 Cars!
If you have ever been a part of running an event or even just attending an event, you will have all seen the amount of litter, debris and rubbish that is left behind once the tidal wave of visitors have come and gone.
Did you know that the average person generates over 2 tonnes of waste every year? That’s the size of a small car!
With that amount of rubbish being chucked away each year, surely there is something we can do to reduce it?
Well, as if by magic, there is...and this blog will teach you the ways like a young Yoda teaching his Jedi's.
