Waste Management: One of the major key features of the Green Buildings is the system of its waste management, which is eco-friendly, and non-toxic. In this system, the waste disposal is being done through recycling. First the waste is segregated in three categories according to their types in organic , non-organic and hazardous waste. Different colors of dustbins are provided for different types of waste so that it becomes very easy to identify and process the waste. In most of the gated communities of famous builders, aerobic bio composters are installed to recycle wet waste.
