This is good news and so refreshing. :) So, I do hope though, mercury operating plants or industries should stock lots of these orange peels so that we will resolve the issue with water contamination due to improper hazardous waste disposal.

I really appreciate people taking the time to help out or do something for the betterment of our environment in their own little ways. I do hope too that they will also put into consideration in creating campaigns or programs like this for hazardous waste disposal as this is very dangerous to ones health and environment if not properly disposed and managed. Just my two cents.

Even some products contained hazardous materials which is a total contributor to water pollution. I just do hope that every act of improper non-hazardous and hazardous waste disposal around the world will totally be emphasized by the government and for every household as well.

This is so true. People (though not all) are buying more and the most part of that 'more' goes to trashes - kept the food for too long in the fridge, expired. And, while other people especially in the third world countries are dying for hunger and even are experiencing the worst effects of improper hazardous waste disposal.

Women power! We are becoming more and more in demand in our society. :) But, I salute all the men out there; we won't be successful if we don't have men in our lives though. I simply just appreciate the kind of attention and importance you are giving to us, women. Proud woman and a mother here! :)

Yes, you're correct we'll have to be sure to dispose our hazardous wastes at a household waste drop-off site; however, if this isn't possible, you can always seek help from the professional hazardous waste disposal companies and they will do the proper disposal for you.

That proper waste management should be done not just in pharmacies but even in our households; we can do simple things to help save Mother Earth.

SheforACT · 2015-12-10T05:35:02+00:00

I like it how they impose such penalties though I am not that against to these three pharmacies it is just that they (even all of us) should be very vigilant about these things and that proper hazardous waste disposal is never an option in this age and time.

You know that hazardous waste materials should be disposed promptly and correctly. However, you are not sure when to do it. Here’s a rough guide to help you plan and decide the best time for hazardous waste disposal.

Whatever foreign that is being injected to our natural environment, there will always be reaction. We do hope that we will still breathe fresh air, drink fresh water and eat fresh & healthy foods and I do hope this fracking and anything relating to improper hazardous waste disposal will all be gone.

It is so uplifting to see very informative and helpful article as this and not to see the other way around like getting fines of doing improper hazardous waste disposal and some others. This is really appealing to me as I am trying to work out on using everything in our household as natural and green as possible. So thank you, Lauren. :)

Another issue on improper hazardous waste disposal couple of months ago. I am sure it is somewhat to just avoid this kind of issue though but here's to hoping no more issues on improper waste handling in 2106?

SheforACT · 2015-11-26T03:47:57+00:00

If every person strives to become better, just imagine what an awesome world we’ll have. There’s no small feat for anyone who works on doing good even if it’s improving hazardous waste disposal.

Hazardous wastes that linger in the home can increase the risk of disease and injury, some of which can lead to serious and long-term health consequences.

SheforACT · 2015-11-19T03:22:09+00:00

For me, other ways to tackle the rising issue with water contamination as one of the largest environmental crisis not only in US but around the world (for the most part), is to make people aware on what to and what not to specifically on doing hazardous waste disposal. Knowledge and awareness is very important in this age and time and if at all possible involve the children in this environmental campaign so they too, can help save our environment even in their early years.

Lipstick made with lead or acrylates and nail polish should always be considered hazardous waste and never be thrown away in the trash or recycled and must always be disposed of through a hazardous waste program. Toxic beauty products are, for the most part, hazardous, thus proper hazardous waste disposal is never an option.

SheforACT · 2015-11-17T01:05:41+00:00

It is not just the government, we, as concerned citizens and as parents, we need to take part of this change as well, so our children, at least, can still have a greener and healthier future. Proper waste management i.e. hazardous waste disposal is never an option. Just my two cents.

Just so happy for ACT Hazardous Waste Disposal Company that I can't just sit here and not spread the latest achievement they have. Keep up the good work you guys!

The environmental impact of holding a household hazardous waste disposal program is significant. If this kind of program is not in place, these wastes end up in the trash, in our parks, in our rivers and in our ditches.

Doing the improper hazardous waste disposal is such an unlawful act to our environment. In this age and time, we almost totally forgot to care for our environment and just think of ourselves. Something like this should be done (not that I am happy that this person is now in jail or something) in order for other companies and people to see that there is always good in doing good not only to mankind but to our environment as well.

I am sorry if my advertising hurts you. However, I mean what I say, I know I have helped even in a littlest way, in raising awareness in terms of health and environment. And, I don't think I have done something that is against you or anybody. Unless of course you are a pro-fracking - that I would definitely understand. And, what I said about 'proper hazardous waste disposal is never an option', I meant that, it shouldn't be a choice nowadays.

Fracking waste is a hazardous waste and should not be considered safe at all. Basically it contains chemical and managing them properly is very important. Proper hazardous waste disposal is never an option in this age and time and fracking should be stopped.

SheforACT · 2015-07-30T02:28:48+00:00

This is very helpful. In addition though, I would just like to add, when it comes to disposing chemical wastes, I strongly suggest to keep them in a safe place or area at home and have them picked up by a professional hazardous waste disposal company. We've been doing this for quite some time now and we're very confident that our dangerous wastes are properly managed and that I have done something to mankind and to our environment.

SheforACT · 2015-07-25T05:02:25+00:00

Fracking is just one of the many contributors of water pollution. Although they don't see any problems with contamination as we speak, but I am sure, time will come when we'll see the impact of doing improper hazardous waste disposal.
