Recycling helps to save forests from depleting, increases the quality of our water and stimulates the economy. For those reasons and many more it is important that everyone does what they can to ensure that they are doing their bit for mother earth. Following is an explanation of how you can get started with recycling and give something back as well as improve your quality of your life and the quality of life for your children and your children’s children. Many people say that they don’t do their bit towards recycling because their effort on their own is not enough to make a difference, however this is simply not true. If everyone had that attitude, where would be?

Organize Your Waste

Rather than sticking your rubbish into one central place, it is important that you categorize waste in order to recycle it. You should place glass in one place, tins/cans in one place, plastics in one place, compost in one place and have another place for cardboard and paper/newspaper.

Find out about Recycling Facilities Where you Live

You should find out about the facilities available in your county. Depending on where you live, you may find it is harder or easier to recycle your waste. Some places will have a dedicated pick-up to come and take your waste away, while other areas will require that you drive a substantial distance in order to drop it off. Either way, it is important that you do your bit for society.

Recycling Tins/Cans

When recycling tins and cans you should firstly remove all the paper from the outside and try to flatten any sharp edges to limit any risk of you being cut. You should then place all tins and cans in a dedicated waste bin.

Plastic

Plastic wrappings and other plastic items should be treated with caution when recycling them. It is best if you take measures to stop any animals being hurt from plastic items. This includes breaking open drinks-cans rings so that an animal cannot get their head trapped in it, as well as ripping open plastic bags so they are just in the form of a single sheet.

Compost

Compost should be used to enrich your soil in your garden. Many people have a compost heap in their garden. Once you have left the compost for a period of a few weeks, it is now ready to treat the soil in your garden. If you do not have a large garden then you could consider asking your neighbors, friends and family members if they could make use of it.

Paper/Newspaper

Paper and newspaper is generally the easiest item to recycle because it is the most sought after item. After you read your old newspapers and magazines you should place them inside a dedicated container so that they can later be recycled. You should be especially careful not to place any other items into this container as it will cause problems for the recycler later on.

Is carpooling good? 

Its very nice to write something about carpooling. This concept is getting popular day by day as it has become need of hour for all of us to share car / van / Taxi / Auto or any four wheeler journey to meet the rising fuel price, traffic congestions and air pollution. 
No doubt , Govt of all countries  is working very hard to fight against traffic problem by  widening roads and making flyovers but the most important two facts which we all need to understand are:- First,  there is a limit to widening Roads and making flyovers and thereafter we cannot widen roads or make flyovers. Second , there is no limit to increasing vehicles. Delhi is getting roughly 1000 new four wheelers on road everyday and this number will increase once low cost cars like Tata Nano are introduced to the market. Can we imagine traffic on roads after 1 year? Apart from increasing road capacity of handling traffic, we have to start thing about reducing traffic of the roads too. www.Poolmycar.in is doing efforts in direction of reducing traffic by pooling car other travelers.

 Normally vehicle’s have fuel efficiency of 10 KM/L. If a vehicle runs 20,000 km/year , this means ,  it will consume 2000 L fuel in one year.  Burning 1 L of petrol emits 2.5 kg of carbon dioxide. Thus the vehicle will emit about 5000 kg of CO2 in one year. An average mature tree can absorb about 4.5-5 kg carbon dioxide per year. Thus we need about 1000 mature trees to absorb the pollution (carbon dioxide) emitted by one car. If a single car is pooled, this could reduce four cars from the road which is equal to growing more than 4000 trees   
We all do expect a lot from government in terms of reducing traffic and do something for reducing pollutions too but the question arises that do we understand our responsibilities? While driving to office in the morning, if you have look on all car’s near by your car’s, you will find that each car is carrying only one passenger. If these all people understand concept of carpooling, this number of cars can be reduced to one fifth as each one which was carrying one passenger, will be carrying 5 passengers. I asked few people if given a chance, will they refer carpooling? I got different answers. Some people said they will definitely like this option. Some people said they will definitely welcome this concept but with some terms and conditions like who will take responsibility of security? Some people said they need a good resource to find a right person to pool with. Some people were just willing to pool with people of there own organization. To make carpooling viable one of website, www.poolmycar.in , has taken care of all these security concerns. This website offers corporate carpooling instead of normal car pooling. This has a system of employee code verification which makes it a secure car pooling website.  This website acts like a personal internal website for any company which gets registered on this website. Most of corporate have hundreds of employees who have cars. If these entire employees come together and decide to save environment, I am pretty sure that traffic can be drastically reduced.  We have to educate people about this carpooling concept and also request companies to promote this. Promotion of this concept will be beneficial to everyone who breaths air and live on Planet Earth.
