Well it is not like that we do not have food or resources but improper management and execution led to this situation the amount of food we waste is unprecedented.
Similar thing applied to electronic waste also therefore, in order to better use of resources we have to shift our focus from production to accessibility. We have more than enough production and source of resources but how their benefits reach to a last citizen of the country this needs to be addressed number of organizations and charity foundations working in the country we need to connect to them.
