We throw many things which are of no use to us every day. These useless materials are called waste or garbage. It includes everything from unwanted old cars to vacant bottles of cold drinks. The amount of garbage is growing rapidly and polluting the environment. It is not possible to get rid of waste altogether but proper management of it can obviously reduce it. We can save our environment to a large extent taking the steps like burning, burying, recycling and converting them to other things. Compost may be produced from vegetable waste which will improve our field making the soil fertile. Government and other companies should come forward to promote recycling and changes in consumption patterns to reduce the quantity of garbage and help people save the environment.
