1. Introduction

To remain people’s existence on Earth it is necessary to:

1. Stop burning natural resources to obtain energy.

2. Make all waste recyclable (no incineration, no disposal)

3. Get organic residues to serve for soil remediation and recovery.

4. Create a stable nutrition system for human beings (natural farming).

If the leaders of the modern world are not able to harmonize the economics alongside with Nature, furthermore if they allow using nuclear weapons – one can say the planet is doomed. Dreaming of “conquering” the Nature is for narrow-minded people. This report is for ones whose mind is set for creativity and kindness. In order to preserve the possibility of gracious existence on the planet we need to establish a professional cooperation which does not go against Nature. This report is based on practical implementation of all methods mentioned above. The project is working successfully and is being developed in Sri Dham Mayapur, India.

2. The features of clean recycling

• Minimal transportation fees

• No waste squeezing

• 100% sorting of waste

• 100% recycling (excluding hazardous chemical waste)

• BAN any incineration / disposal / flooding of waste activities.

• All actions are performed by a standalone organization.

• Organic waste goes to recover an agricultural soil.

• More trees and other plants are to be planted.

In stalks, branches and crown of trees there is storage of carbon. The summary amount of carbon in trees is higher than in the atmosphere. Plants are official intermediaries in the water and nutrients cycle. If we destroy trees and do not plant new ones, the cycle gets broken. So worldwide trees planting/creating of reservations is a must now. The entire information is easy to adapt to any city. It’s all about responsibility and motivation to solve the problem of waste by not going against Nature.

3. Current situation analysis 3.1 . Specification of a place for clean recycling

A human being is a source of waste, not a source of trash and garbage. Those two terms should be described in a more detailed way (because they are key-terms in the project). Garbage and trash is a result of watering, partial incineration, pressing and pollution of solid municipal waste. Garbage is a mix of substances which is not profitable to split up and recycle from economical point of view. In this project only dry, “clean”, unburned and unpressed waste is used, furthermore they are sorted into organic and non-organic waste. The city of Mayapur (the territory of Gang and Jalang rivers’ confluence + neighborhood of 7 villages - the county of Nadia, Western Bengalia, India) is chosen to run the project.

Nowadays there is an active construction of the largest Temple of Vedic Planetarium in the world. The neighborhoods are being actively built up with infrastructure and housing.

In 2014, average daily waste is: 4 tons in Mayapur or 20 m³ of waste. Total waste off the island is 22 tons or 110 m³.

• 10 000 people live in ISKCON-Mayapur.

• 20 000 piligrims.

• 50 000 live in neighbor villages.

The total of 80 000 people, but now waste comes from Mayapur only. To perform a calculation let’s use a number of 30 000 people served by our department.

One human being produces 100 kg of waste annually, so 3000 tons comes annually from all people ( 8 tons a day, in fact 2-7 tons, the average of 3 tons approximately). If one divides this number by 8 working hours a day, it results in 375 kg hourly. We need to find out a normal rate of waste to sort out for one human being per unit time. The result will tell us a number of sorters involved. And the total costs of that work.

Suggested amounts of raw materials and financial incomes provided by 100% sorting and recycling:

• 150 kg of paper or 1200 rupies

• 375 kg of polymers or 3750 rupies

• 40 kg of glass or 40 rupies

• 20 kg of metal or 400 rupies

• 1 kg of lamp or 2 rupies

The sources of gross income of first-ever department activities:

1. Production of polymer-sandy boards and carton. It may give the extra income which is will be known by September, 2014.

2. The total of 5400 rupies. Selling of SMR gives an income.

3. Buying and reselling of SMR gives an income

4. 5000 rupies /daily by planting vegetables and fruit.

An annual attendance of 14.5 million piligrims is supposed to take place in 2018.

So it is about the average of 133 000 people daily, let’s say it is 100 000 people or 15 tons of waste daily. The total income is about 20 000 rupies depending on a level of recycling and amounts of grown harvest. It is 15 tons or 75 m³ of waste daily.

So we should be ready to work out such amounts and volumes. So with the given situation one can perform a scenario:

First stage. Introduction and running the project at the level of settlement (30 000 people, ISKCON-Mayapur): in progress. Second stage. Higher level up to 100 000 people (ISKCON-Mayapur 2018) – an approximate calculation is available. Third stage. Up to 1 000 000 people – an approximate calculation is available.
