Two days back, the Centre notified stringent plastic
waste management rules to regulate use of the hazardous material and handle the
waste generated by it
These include :
* Banning of
plastic bags of less than 50 micron thickness
* Manufacturing
/ use of non-recyclable multi-layered plastic to be phased out in 2 years
* Manufacturers
of products using plastic wrapping materials will have to pay prescribed
fees to
States. Collected funds will be disbursed among civic bodies and gram
panchayats
for taking
measures to dispose off plastic waste
No doubt , such measures were long overdue and must be
welcomed , although I have serious doubts whether our corrupt bureaucracy will
strictly enforce these or use these as one more means to extort bribes from
manufacturers / retailers / users !
SOME
BACKGROUND STATISTICS :
* India
generates 15,000 tons of plastic waste everyday
* 6,000 tons
remain uncollected and get disposed off in hazardous manner
* There are approx
8,000 plastic recycling units ( half of them , unregistered )
MISSING
ELEMENT :
Abolish Corporate Income Tax for all plastic recycling
units for next 10 years !
Let GREED take over GOVERNING !
WHAT CAN WE
EXPECT ?
* Within a year
, another 10,000 plastic recycling units will come up
* 100 % of
plastic produced will get recycled
* These units will mobilize lakhs of " Plastic Rag Pickers " to collect
every small scrap of
plastic from
every nook and corner of every street in every city, leading to Swatchh
Bharat and self employment !
* Recycled
plastic will get used to build strong / long-lasting road surfaces
* Some recycled
plastic will be used as raw material for mass-producing of 3D printed
houses ,
solving problem of 50 million " Affordable Housing " (ask WINSUN of
Shanghai )
( This is
the kind of innovations expected from our National Science Laboratories )
WHERE ELSE CAN WE TRY THIS
?
* Abolish
Corporate Income Tax ( for 10 years ) for all plants / units , producing
Methane
Gas using organic waste from household /
hotels / restaurants
* All
municipalities and gram panchayats to allow such privately-owned Organic Waste
Processing /
Gas Producing units to collect such waste from all the streets , free of cost
*
Municipalities will save hundreds of crores of rupees in Garbage
Collection
* State Electricity
Boards will set up Gas based Power Plants , next to these units and buy
the gas for power generation
If this suggestion is implemented , we would have
SWATCHH BHARAT in 2 years
And , we would have harnessed human GREED ( viz: avoid
income tax ) of our Start Ups to solve the problem of pollution
No more fires in Deonar dumping ground !
I hope Shri Prakash Javadekar-ji is listening
