Solution

  1. Solid waste comprises all the waste arising from human and animal activities and is ordinarily solid discarded as useless and unwanted.
  2. It is critical to note that the definition of solid waste is not limited to wastes that are physically rigid.

  2. Waste generated in schools: Food waste, plastic, paper, Floor Swipeeing, Aluminium foils, pins, stationery items etc.
