Garbage recycling - Unbelievable

Garbage recycling - Unbelievable information

Even though it’s garbage, we can try to recycle it to keep our green earth naturally.

Day by day, we are wasting lot of used materials, which we can easily use to recycle for some other work. Without doing recycling, we are just going for new one.

You can find lots of garbage in both sides of railway tracks. Did our govt. noticed? Or did you noticed?


Visualize about railway tracks, there are more than 23000 kms of railway tracks in India, if we maintain properly, we can easily decrease our garbage by 15-20%.

We will see a simple calculation below.

It’s time for you to visualize, start now!

1547 train runs per day and more than 10000 railway stations in India.

Average 7 trains Arr/Dep in platform per second, if it is so, shops in railway station sells around 150 tea/coffee per train.

150 cups per train * 1500 trains average per day = 225000 disposal paper cups per day!

One more shocking information to you that you will get around 2500 disposal cups from a tree, it mean that, we need to cut 100 trees per day to make 250000 disposal paper cups.

Before buying paper materials, please do think that % growth of trees getting down day by day.

Suggestion from my side – Govt. can place tenders to business people to clean up the area and use for recycling.
