TOPIC: COMMUNITY SANITATION:
GERMS, GARBAGE AND SANITATION
Communicable diseases spread through microbes. Germs take birth in places like filth, garbage and heaps of rubbish. So if breeding of germs is stopped, communicable diseases can also be prevented from speading. Thus if there are no heaps of filth garbage of rubbish, there would be no breeding of germs. We must dispose of the garbage properly.
Proper disposal of garbage is called sanitation. It is our duty of the people, urban as well as rural, to take care of sanitation in their localities for the health community.
COMMUNITY SANITATION:
Faecal discharge and wastes and sewage system: In villages, people mostly go for faecal discharge. That makes the atmosphere unhealthy. Villagers should go away from city. In some houses there are open flowing latrines. The night soil of the resident goes out to the roadsides drains. We often see the dung of domestic animal on roads, or lanes and public places. Domestic - garbage is thrown on foot-paths or roads lanes. Latrines in the house should be connected to sewage system. Animal dung and domestic garbage should be used for making compost-manure.
Discarded and Waste House-hold materials: We consider many things as waste and discarded them. These discarded thing are thrown away. These things make the garbage. These things could be utilised. The useless part of vegetables may be used as fodder for animals. Old newspaper, tin etc. may sold to Kabari. Many decorative and useful things can be created with these things. Thus we get new and useful things with waste materials and save the surrounding and atmosphere from being polluted.
Some Other ways of Garbage Disposal: In rural areas garbage and refuse of house-hold are burnt. The burning of refuse is another method of its disposal. But its smoke pollutes the air. So this method of garbage disposal is not considered good.
Garabge is also used to fill up ditches and level low-land. This is called land-fill. Thus different types of garbage and refuse can be used to make manure fuel, level low land etc. that would be immensely help us in task of community sanaitation.
