When does waste segregation at source happen?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Separating waste at the place where it is generated

Source segregation means separating waste at the point where it is produced, before different types become mixed. For example, a household, classroom, or office can place wet biodegradable waste, dry recyclable waste, and hazardous items in separate containers. This practice improves the quality of recyclables, supports composting, reduces contamination, and makes later treatment safer and more efficient. Dumping, burning, or mixing waste does not represent source segregation; in fact, mixing makes recovery more difficult. Therefore, option B is correct because it states both the timing and the location of the process.
