Our planet is drowning in garbage and is wasting time citing any stats here is superfluous. We produce a great deal of waste and more for a long time will be difficult even dream of eliminating them completely. But what about We can dream and even continue to implement Effectively repeated is processed Garbage, that is recycling. Differentiation can be but annoying. Yes because… where discard receipts? Whether wash boxes after yogurt? Whether sorting garbage at all makes sense? For these and more questions about segregation we will try to answer myself in this article.

Demarcation of waste - simply information

JSSO has been in force in Poland since 2017, which means Uniform Separation System  Waste. Means that throughout the country there is a classification into mixed waste and four main fractions of waste: blue (paper), yellow (metals and plastics artificial), green (glass) and brown (waste biodegradable). If glasses can be done to glass compartment colored (container green) and colorless (container white). Specific formulations when and how they are exported waste, it depends already from individual recipient waste - to these companies as well as to the community you can direct any doubt, ask if complaints. Maybe your place in residence is lacking multi-colored containers. Does this mean your community Haven't traded them yet Being worried it's in the near future future and it does until 30th June 2022.

How to properly separate garbage– Factions

Waste bio, or biodegradable, it's the ones you give to compost. There is this between other garbage after vegetables, fruit and all other plants, leftovers food, including for example mussels yes, coffee grounds after coffee and tea and also broken preparations not impregnated wood and bioplastics. In containers brown I can't find myself but earth and stones, edible oils, no dust, nothing that could rot, for example meat. He shouldn't have found that myself over there plastic so if you want pack rubbish in a bag, it must be or paper or specially marked as compostable.

Metals and materials artificial

Metals and man-made materials probably don't cause any major problems, but it's worth remembering a few basic rules. Bottles and containers including multi-material packaging (such as Tetra Pak, i.e. milk and juice cartons). Previously empty, but you don't have to wash or rinse. You occupy me yourself This company is processed Waste, no So sense twice Waste water. This even inserts myself dirty foil aluminum - without hesitation you can throw it on yellow containers, but don't place over there packaging for drugs, plastic toys or containers for paints and varnishes.

Paper

Clear paper under virtually every number should turn blue. Containers can't be but greasy or densely dirty, so available food paraphernalia and packaging boxes after pizza should end up mixed up in the trash. This myself inserts myself into coffee cups, but for a different reason - they're covered in polyethylene. Not too blue bins, but mixed for rubbish throw it away varnished paper, receipts, filters for coffee, towels and handkerchiefs paper and napkins.

And what is not allowed to throw in the glass container? Mirrors, windows, lightbulbs, candles covered wax, glass glasses albeit heat-resistant ceramics, crystals and porcelain. Such problematic garbage you can put in a waste container mixed and the best take it to the next point selectively collect waste (PSZOK). There also surely you will rid yourself of items that you cannot enter above listed fractions. There are, among other things, textiles, hazardous waste, ie batteries, mercury thermometers, medicines and packaging after you and electronic waste.

Whether delimitation waste makes sense?

"I don't separate because it's going to a garbage truck later anyway..." – say those who feel themselves cheated by environmentalists. but the truth is altogether different. Individual commune occupy myself planning export and segregation garbage. Depending on where you live from here you might see little else. Sometimes garbage trucks come after a fraction (e.g. paper) on a particular day of the week, sometimes cars these are fitted in particular partitions to separate individual waste, and in yet other case garbage are separated in matching color bags next door before further transport to recycling points. The garbage that was not left results in separation, it means those mixed from garbage containers, they go to the sorting plant where take place myself complicated, partially mechanized process sorting into separate fractions. Unfortunately, the majority definitely ends up in landfill because it is not suitable for processing myself, such as dirty other waste paper. That's why exact sorting of garbage in the house is important.

Demarcation of waste - tips

reduce surface that occupy garbage. Crush cans and plastic bottles, place small larger litter. In that way you will make it easier already burdensome work loader impurities.

you not sure? Throw in mixed. A lot of minor damage entails placing rubbish in black containers rather than handing them over at the wrong fraction. Don't worry if you don't know something, you don't have to do it all perfectly right away.

It is best to read labels in the store

Increasingly more producers are giving information about the material from which the left packaging and its contents are done and where such used already products you should meet. Information on this The material is not suitable for reprocessing e.g. plastic Number 5 may be the reason to be so stop buying and be able to choose the same product Another manufacturer. The fact is that the smaller is waste plastic, there is less chance for it to be recycled. Keep this in mind when buying bars and separately wrapped candies.

Minimize the amount of garbage. As the old saying goes - better prevention than cure. The less junk you will generate the less time they will lose in their breakup. Have packaging to take away for shopping or choose items that instead have three layers of plastic and more additionally coated cardboard packaging they are in the newspaper.

Business conscious, mindful ideas zero waste. Remember that  This is exactly us, the consumers, who influence the later decisions producers.
