A city is not smart until it manages its waste well. There is a mix population in Faridabad. Majority is that of highly educated but the other side is very weak in education, awareness and attitude. Need to educate all stakeholders for sensitisation on this issue.IT intervention is required for monitoring and control of corruption.NGOs needs to be involved. Good Governance can make the things happen failing which it will further go down. ANIT KUMAR PATEL R.I.E.T Faridabad

Getting to zero waste is as important to cities as getting to zero carbon. This doesn't mean just encouraging residents to recycle—cities also can deploy technologies to tap the energy and other valuable resources buried in the trash. Advanced anaerobic digesters process organic garbage waste and the sludge left over from treating wastewater to produce biogas, which can be burned for energy.

Rooftops, which take up a fifth of urban surface area, can be used to support solar panels or wind turbines, but they're otherwise underutilized. Covering the tops of buildings with grasses, shrubs and other plants can deliver a host of benefits. Though often more costly than traditional coverings, green roofs can provide insulation and trim a building's heating and cooling needs. They absorb rainwater, reducing the load on storm-water systems, and filter what water does run off so it can be use
