		&#039;description&#039; =&gt; &#039;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;-GaonConnection.com&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;A new study points out how waste segregation suffers as 70% of households in Haridwar and 90% in Rishikesh use a single bin for waste disposal; and a large chunk of plastic waste flows into the local water bodies, including the Ganges.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Up to 35 per cent of the total plastic waste generated in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, leaks into its water bodies. Twenty kilometres to the northeast from Haridwar, the situation in Rishikesh town is no different where up to 30 per cent of the total plastic waste generated finds its way into the water bodies.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;These are some of the important findings of a recent study to quantify the composition of solid and plastic waste in Indian cities and municipal areas. The study has been conducted by Delhi-based environmental organisation International Forum for Environment, Sustainability &amp;amp; Technology (iFOREST), which sampled 394 households and 89 commercial establishments in Rishikesh, and 383 households and 91 commercial establishments in Haridwar.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Apart from flowing into the water, over 13 per cent of the plastic waste in Haridwar is burnt whereas 19 per cent of this plastic waste is &amp;lsquo;unmanaged&amp;rsquo;. Similarly, in Rishikesh, nine per cent of total plastics is unmanaged and 10 per cent is burnt, noted the study titled &amp;lsquo;Baseline Assessment Study on solid and plastic waste in Haridwar and Rishikesh&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;Plastic waste generation and its mismanagement is one of India&amp;rsquo;s biggest environmental challenges currently. The changing lifestyle in both urban and rural areas is escalating the problem. However, there is a lack of adequate data on solid and plastic waste generated from our cities,&amp;rdquo; reads the press statement issued by the non-profit.&lt;/p&gt;

The study has been conducted by Delhi-based environmental organisation International Forum for Environment, Sustainability &amp;amp; Technology (iFOREST), which sampled 394 households and 89 commercial establishments in Rishikesh, and 383 households and 91 commercial establishments in Haridwar.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Apart from flowing into the water, over 13 per cent of the plastic waste in Haridwar is burnt whereas 19 per cent of this plastic waste is &amp;lsquo;unmanaged&amp;rsquo;.

	&#039;description&#039; =&gt; &#039;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;-GaonConnection.com&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;A new study points out how waste segregation suffers as 70% of households in Haridwar and 90% in Rishikesh use a single bin for waste disposal; and a large chunk of plastic waste flows into the local water bodies, including the Ganges.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Up to 35 per cent of the total plastic waste generated in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, leaks into its water bodies. Twenty kilometres to the northeast from Haridwar, the situation in Rishikesh town is no different where up to 30 per cent of the total plastic waste generated finds its way into the water bodies.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;These are some of the important findings of a recent study to quantify the composition of solid and plastic waste in Indian cities and municipal areas. The study has been conducted by Delhi-based environmental organisation International Forum for Environment, Sustainability &amp;amp; Technology (iFOREST), which sampled 394 households and 89 commercial establishments in Rishikesh, and 383 households and 91 commercial establishments in Haridwar.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Apart from flowing into the water, over 13 per cent of the plastic waste in Haridwar is burnt whereas 19 per cent of this plastic waste is &amp;lsquo;unmanaged&amp;rsquo;. Similarly, in Rishikesh, nine per cent of total plastics is unmanaged and 10 per cent is burnt, noted the study titled &amp;lsquo;Baseline Assessment Study on solid and plastic waste in Haridwar and Rishikesh&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;Plastic waste generation and its mismanagement is one of India&amp;rsquo;s biggest environmental challenges currently. The changing lifestyle in both urban and rural areas is escalating the problem. However, there is a lack of adequate data on solid and plastic waste generated from our cities,&amp;rdquo; reads the press statement issued by the non-profit.&lt;/p&gt;

Waste woes in Uttarakhand’s Haridwar and Rishikesh where up to 35% plastics waste flows into water bodies: iFOREST study

-GaonConnection.com A new study points out how waste segregation suffers as 70% of households in Haridwar and 90% in Rishikesh use a single bin for waste disposal; and a large chunk of plastic waste flows into the local water bodies, including the Ganges. Up to 35 per cent of the total plastic waste generated in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, leaks into its water bodies. Twenty kilometres to the northeast from Haridwar, the situation in Rishikesh town is no different where up to 30 per cent of the total plastic waste generated finds its way into the water bodies. These are some of the important findings of a recent study to quantify the composition of solid and plastic waste in Indian cities and municipal areas. The study has been conducted by Delhi-based environmental organisation International Forum for Environment, Sustainability & Technology (iFOREST), which sampled 394 households and 89 commercial establishments in Rishikesh, and 383 households and 91 commercial establishments in Haridwar. Apart from flowing into the water, over 13 per cent of the plastic waste in Haridwar is burnt whereas 19 per cent of this plastic waste is ‘unmanaged’. Similarly, in Rishikesh, nine per cent of total plastics is unmanaged and 10 per cent is burnt, noted the study titled ‘Baseline Assessment Study on solid and plastic waste in Haridwar and Rishikesh’. “Plastic waste generation and its mismanagement is one of India’s biggest environmental challenges currently. The changing lifestyle in both urban and rural areas is escalating the problem. However, there is a lack of adequate data on solid and plastic waste generated from our cities,” reads the press statement issued by the non-profit. Please click here to read more.
