Plastic Recycling

1.2 billion Indians generate 115,000 tons of daily waste. Plastic chokes rivers, risking flow. By 2050, oceans may hold more plastic than fish. Ocean debris is 50-80% plastic. Unmanaged waste strains land resources, and burning polythene releases toxins. Waste workers risk health without proper waste segregation.

Less than 70% of waste is collected. Less than 20% of the waste collected is treated. India is drowning in its own garbage. SGIF works with communities and waste workers to create respectable and sustainable livelihoods for waste workers while diverting as much waste away from the landfill as possible.
