Thinking Green - Environmental Tips, News, Commentary

One of the consistent problems with waste management systems has been the inefficient management of solid wastes thus causing various ecological concerns. Good thing new technology and strategies are dealing with this issue. Traditional waste management systems like landfills and incinerators are known to contribute to environmental problems such as air pollution, contamination of ground water and vegetation. And often times these even cause adverse effects to human health. But with new technologies on waste treatment, tested methods are being used which are more efficient and reliable than landfill system and incinerators. The concept on these green technologies is to destroy waste and convert wastes into green energy without causing any harm to the environment and human health. The problem of pollution due to inefficient waste management can be greatly avoided through green technology like Biosphere Technology, a waste to energy system that provides effective process of ener

Fossil fuels- Humanity's most disruptive source of energy Traditional energy sources particularly energy from fossil fuels like oil can be disruptive. The continuous increase of oil prices creates impact to the economy thus affecting socio-economic development of each community. Not to mention the disturbing effects of oil to our natural environment, which is yet another crucial problem the government needs to address. Aside from its increasing price, its adverse effects to the environment even prove that we can no longer rely to oil for our future energy needs. It is no longer stable source of energy which is why we should develop our renewable energy sources. For if we continue to use fossil fuels for our energy, the further damages we create into our natural environment. Oil emits greenhouse gases which contribute to global warming and other ecological concerns. Moreover, the unstable prices of oil only cause problems to consumers particularly the end market or the

What is MRF? MRF or Material Recycling Facility also known as Material Recovery Facility integrates conveyors system which is used for material recovery or recycling. It has sorting machinery wherein it divides recyclables according to end marketable usage. Normally, there are two different types of MRF, the clean and dirty MRF’s. Significance of MRF As we know it, recycling is one method of conserving our natural environment. And MRF systems play an important role in doing the method of recycling in a large scale basis. As an essential component of innovative waste management system by means of recycling, MRF greatly helps in conserving the environment. It lessens the extraction of our natural resources thus creating a more sustainable way of manufacturing new products. Aside from that is decreases the amount of waste materials in our community thus prevents the spread of environmental contaminants that may also bring dangers in human health. MRF also offers high processin
