Commander Yellow

When she heard that strong voice from the valley calling on her to be responsible, Commander Yellow decided to make it her mission to save the environment from all the waste the Garbage Monster is creating!

General Buzz

After fainting at the horrible sight of bricks and rusting appliances in an idyllic valley that should have been teeming with wildlife, General Buzz took it upon himself to protect the environment from the Garbage Monster!

Garbage Monster

Risen from the slimy and lifeless bottom of a water stream brimming with waste, the Garbage Monster needs to be destroyed so we can all enjoy the environment. It feeds on waste and needs it to survive. So, we can only win if we stop feeding him!

WELCOME

Have you ever wondered what happens to the things that we throw away each day? Where do they end up?

You might be the one in charge of taking the rubbish bag outside your door…but what happens to it after it is collected by the garbage truck?

It comes to us!

At WasteServ, we receive all that waste at our facilities. We process it, treat it and turn it into resources.

To help us in our mission, we have engaged the help of Commander Yellow and General Buzz. With fierce determination and focus, our superheroes are committed to fight the Garbage Monster.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

By now you probably already know about the 3Rs – reduce, reuse and recycle. But do you know why it is important to manage our waste properly?

Reduce

‘Do I need this item?’ Think about what you want to buy and if you really need it. Buy only what you need and use all of what you buy. If you follow this advice, in the long run, you will be reducing the waste you generate.

Reuse

Can your old toys, clothes and books be used by someone you know? If not, you can always try donating them to a charity shop. If an item is broken, check if it can be repaired first before you run to buy a new one.

Recycle

Now, if you really must throw something away, then make sure you dispose of it in the right bag. Make sure you know what goes in each bag so that those materials that can be recycled can be transformed into something new.

By practicing the 3Rs every day, you will be properly managing waste and contributing to a better environment. Remember, it is our duty to protect the environment.

So, let’s all be eco-warriors just like our superheroes - General Buzz and Commander Yellow.
