How Leaf Shedding Affects Air Quality and Drainage Systems in India
Every year, seasonal changes in India cause trees to shed large amounts of dry leaves. While this is a natural process, it can become a major problem in urban areas. When dry leaves pile up and are not disposed of properly, they can clog drains, pollute the air, and even become fire hazards.But there’s a simple and eco-friendly solution — using a waste composting machine. It helps convert leaf waste into nutrient-rich compost, keeping the environment clean and healthy.
To make composting more efficient, Greenius offers an Organic Waste Calculator that helps users estimate the daily organic waste generated at homes, restaurants, societies, or commercial units. This simple tool provides a clear idea of how much waste can be converted into compost, helping you choose the right composting machine size. It also allows better planning for waste segregation and disposal. By using the calculator, users can reduce waste overflow, optimize costs, and support eco-friendly practices. It’s a small step toward smarter, sustainable waste management.
Urban Challenges of Leaf Shedding
1. Clogged Drainage Systems
Dry leaves often block open drains and sewers, especially during monsoon season. This leads to waterlogging and urban flooding.
2. Increased Air Pollution
In many cities, people burn leaves to get rid of them quickly. This adds smoke and pollutants to the air, making breathing difficult.
3. Fire Risks
Piles of dry leaves are highly flammable and pose a serious risk during the dry season.
4. Health Hazards
Decaying leaves release dust, pollen, and mold that can trigger allergies, asthma, and other respiratory issues.
Real-Life Examples from Indian Cities
- Delhi: Dry leaf waste is one of the main reasons for blocked sewers, as reported by civic bodies before winter.
- Mumbai: Suburban areas often resort to leaf burning, worsening air quality.
- Pune: Public gardens become mosquito breeding zones when leaves mix with stagnant water.
