Mixing of dry and wet waste is notoriously known for several problems:
1. Nasty foul greenhouse gases when they break down in landfills.
2. Sewage line choking causing heavy waterlogs.
Come up with a technologically driven innovative solution to segregate dry and wet waste in an efficient manner.
Nowadays using phones, sticking to your laptop, using all electronic devices may seem reasonable to people. But it is harming our planet.
Give a solution that controls the use of these equipment.

At least 8 million tons of plastic end up in the oceans every year and makeup 80% of all marine debris from surface water to deep-sea sediments. Marine species ingest or suffer entanglement by various plastic waste, which causes severe injuries and deaths.
Develop a sustainable, feasible, and affordable methodology that will ensure the effective decontamination of ocean water.
