Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM Introduction Medical waste can cause pollution and disease if it is not handled properly. Infectious waste‚ especially sharps‚ poses a risk to anyone who comes into contact with it. The WHO estimates that 40% of hepatitis cases and 12% of HIV cases worldwide are caused by occupational exposure. Hospitals also produce small amounts of chemical‚ pharmaceutical and radioactive waste‚ which need specialist handling. Added to this‚ there will be large amounts of more

Biodegradable is a popular word these days. Everyone is concerned about the environment. But it’s also a word that is easily misunderstood. Biodegradable bags come in several forms‚ but there are big differences between them… and it’s very possible that none may be the right choice for your client.

Transported excrements from people and animals are broken down with enzymes and bacteria to form a natural gas used for energy in the villages [ (Docksai‚ 2009) ]. The same concept can be applied to the garbage from municipal solid waste. To reduce ones ecological footprint‚ there are small changes everyone can implement to make the
