GARBAGE CITY to GARDEN CITY


1. Bangalore generates about 5000 MTs of
garbage every day
2. Out of this 40% is WET WASTE (2000MTs) &
60% is dry recyclable waste (3000 Mts)
3. We spend nearly Rs. 120.00 crores to shift
this garbage to our neighboring villages and
create problems for them
4. With our present system it is logistically
impossible to avoid transit garbage dumping
points and we will forever remain a
GARBAGE CITY
5. What needs to be done by the various
stakeholders – the citizens and BBMP?
By the Citizens:
A. Segregate at Source into Wet Waste & Dry
Waste; hand over only wet waste to BBMP

B. Store Dry Waste and ask your maid to


dispose it off periodically. It gives your
maid an additional income
By BBMP
A. Collect only wet waste from residential
buildings
B. Establish Dry waste Collection &
Segregation Centers in all the 198 wards
within 2 years and start collection of dry
waste from households
C. Also establish Composting centers in
various locations across the city and in
every ward and convert wet waste into
Compost and sell it.

What do we achieve by the above:


i. We reduce the garbage to be shifted
by 60% - to 2000 MTs from 5000 MTs
ii. In 2 years by establishing dry waste
collection and segregation centers and
composting centers on a ward wise
basis, we will achieve a Zero Garbage
output on a ward wise basis.
iii. Instead of spending Rs. 120 crores per
annum, we will earn at least Rs.80 crores
per annum from Garbage
iv. There will be no garbage dumps in the
city
