From Plate to Planet: Minimizing Food Waste for Climate Health

The project has achieved significant waste reduction at the college mess through awareness campaigns and waste monitoring, improving food efficiency and lowering disposal rates. By educating the community about the environmental impacts of food waste, it has fostered a greater sense of responsibility and encouraged sustainable food practices. The composting program has successfully transformed food scraps into nutrient-rich compost, enhancing soil fertility and supporting local initiatives like Haritha Haram. Additionally, the biogas system proposal outlines a plan to convert organic waste into renewable energy, potentially reducing reliance on conventional energy sources. Collaboration with the GHMC is also proposed to enable broader implementation of biogas and composting systems, further promoting regional sustainability.
