the house. WASTE MANAGEMENT WASTE WATER TREATMENT improves
sanitation by managing human waste, solid waste, sewage systems and
drainage systems. Wastewater are treated and converted for water
cycles and proper waste disposal. This precaution prevents

of the cave walls are covered in vegetation. Green walls can reduce
the overall temperature by absorbing solar radiations off roads and
buildings. Around 30% of the walls are used as advertisement boards
