Biodegradable and Non-Biodegradable Waste

Biodegradable waste includes materials that can be decomposed naturally by microorganisms. Examples include vegetable peels, fruits, tea leaves, and leftover food. These wastes can be converted into useful compost.

Non-biodegradable waste includes materials that do not decompose easily. Items like plastic bags, synthetic cloth, glass, aluminum wrappers, and broken toys fall under this category. These materials remain in the environment for a long time and cause pollution.
