Abstract - The climate change and global warming are biggest threats to our planet. Increase in number of people and urbanization affects our amount of waste generation per day. Every year India generates 64M tonnes of waste and it is estimated that by 2030 it will reach to 456M tonnes annually. Because of poor source segregation, littering and bad waste disposal habits, most of our waste ended up in drainage system, water bodies, lakes, roadside dump yards and at last in landfill. In this work we have proposed a web-based solution to minimize our per day waste. This system provides solution to minimize the waste generation per day by every individual. By adopting such solutions and conscious consumption a lot of waste is minimized from going into the landfill. This system is developed using Extensive hypertext markup language and cascading style scheme (CSS). Further, PHP and JavaScript are used. Hence this contributes lesser pollution and a step towards greener future.
