Tourism department's 'Kerala waste free destination' campaign that aims to make Kovalam a garbage free tourism destination, is awaiting government clearance.
Kerala Tourism and Suchitwa Mission have joined hands to provide biogas plants and different composting technologies to all houses in the area at 25% subsidy as per a TOI report.
"We want to make the bio-gas apparatus affordable to the public. The subsidy is likely to be offered by the tourism department, corporation and the Suchitwa Mission. Smaller houses will be provided with pipe-composting," said Suchitwa Mission executive director George Chakacherry.
The departments have developed a package for Kovalam which will incorporate various methods of waste management including vermi, ring and pipe composting. The biggest worry of the mission is to get the hotels to implement the project.
