A school in Melbourne will not set up garbage cans! Students need to take the garbage home

Original title: a school in Australia will not set up garbage cans, and students need to take garbage home

On the 27th, Australia's new Express reported that in order to reduce the cost of garbage disposal, Melbourne women's middle school in Australia plans to ban dustbins and inform 1300 students of the school to take garbage home.

Melbourne women's high school is located in Richmond, the report said. The public school said it would gradually implement a policy similar to that adopted by the National Park, that is, students should take what they bring home.

Principal Moni said: 'this means that, like going in and out of Australian national parks, whoever generates garbage has to be responsible for cleaning up. The preliminary plan is that Melbourne women's middle school will no longer set up garbage cans. "

Moni also said, 'Australia is one of the most wasteful countries in the world's developed countries. The growth rate of garbage we produce every year is twice that of population growth. Our garbage collection system is in chaos and there is no solution at present. "

In 2018, Melbourne women's middle school spent nearly a $13000 to dispose of 1000 cubic meters of garbage. In addition, there are other paper recycling and waste treatment projects.

It is reported that Melbourne women's middle school will still set up compost bins, including worm farm bins, which means that all food residues such as fruits, vegetables, bread, dairy products and meat can be discarded in schools. In addition, waste paper baskets will be kept in classrooms, offices and libraries, while sanitary waste bins will still be placed in toilets.
