Both methods of rubbish treatment should not be the mainstream, the best method starts from classification of rubbish and advocate the four slogans namely, reuse, recycle, reduce and recover. Rubbish can be reduced to a minimum through educating people how to protect the environment. Many products should be designed to be environmentally friendly.
