Half flush: Liquid waste 11 litres amount of waste recyclable.
= 2.3kg of paper + 1kg of plastics
= 3.3kg of recyclable waste
= [ 2.3kg x 0.2 ] + [ 1kg x 0.1 ]
= RM 0.56 / week waste.
Used plastic, glass bottles, containers, utensils and milk cartons can be reused
Unwanted clothes donated to charity
By recycling we can also manage waste while also earning extra money as well food waste.
