Question

Discuss.
In the two photographs you see different ways of collecting and disposing garbage.

(i) Which way do you think provides safety to the person disposing garbage?
(ii) What are the dangers of collecting garbage in the manner shown in the first photograph?
(iii) Why do you think that proper ways of disposing garbage are not available to those who work in municipalities?

Answer 1

(i) The way of collecting and disposing garbage shown in the second photograph provides safety to the persons disposing garbage.

(ii) The way of collecting and disposing garbage shown in the first photograph provides no safety to the persons disposing garbage. As a result, they become vulnerable to several diseases, which can be life-threatening as well. Also, in such cases, diseases can spread from animals to humans.

(iii) Proper ways of disposing garbage are not available to those who work in municipalities. This could perhaps be because of the careless and negligent attitude of the municipal corporations towards the people responsible for collecting and disposing garbage.
