Padang Galak Beach Waste is Sorted, Further Handling is Key

DENPASAR, GARISBUMI.com – Plastic waste, wooden branches and inorganic waste were collected during a beach clean-up action by employees of the Denpasar City Library and Archives Service (DPK) in the Kite Lomba Beach area, Padang Galak. The collected waste is then separated based on organic and inorganic types to facilitate subsequent handling.

The activity, entitled Clean Friday, combines coastal cleaning with waste sorting. Based on information from the Denpasar City Government, the sorted waste is put into bags prepared to facilitate subsequent disposal or recycling.

However, this sorting does not mean that all the collected waste has been recycled. The available information does not specify the amount of waste, the location of transportation, or the party who will process it.

Cleanliness of tourist and cultural areas

Padang Galak Beach is known as the location for the kite festival. This area has a tourist function as well as a cultural activity space, so its cleanliness is directly related to the comfort of the community and visitors.

In this activity, DPK employees walked along the shoreline to collect scattered rubbish. Separation of organic and inorganic waste is carried out from the collection stage so that the two are not mixed in one container.

The Denpasar City Government said that this mutual cooperation action is expected to encourage visitors to maintain cleanliness and not throw rubbish carelessly.
