Answer 2

$\star$ The different materials being dumped in the rivers after Pujas (religious occassions) in various parts of our country are:

• Used Flowers

• Thermocol designs

• The idol

• Plastic materials , etc.

Alternative ways to prevent pollution and perform effective disposal are:

• Using the flowers and other organic, biodegradable wastes to create compost and later use them as natural fertilizers.

• Recycling of the plastic materials to produce secondary plastic products like pen-stands, etc.

• Thermocol products can also be recycled 100%.

• So, it is necessary to segregate our waste before disposal.
