non-decaying materials.
4. The sharp objects should be placed in a
cardboard box and close or tape the box and
mark it as trash.
5. Never touch waste materials with your hand.
Use adequate equipment in sorting waste
materials to avoid puncture from sharp objects.

such as plastic bottles. They can be made
into decorations and pots.
7. Generate income by selling old
newspapers, cardboard, cartolinas,
manila papers and bondpapers and other
materials that are not recyclables.
