Hypothesis
In the context of Malaysian schools, the
effective implementation of
comprehensive food waste management
practices, particularly through the
establishment of composting systems, will
yield tangible economic benefits by
creating a sustainable income stream.
Conclusion
Our research emphasizes the potential of
composting food waste for Malaysian schools to
earn income while addressing waste
management issues. By converting food waste
into compost, schools can achieve both
environmental sustainability and financial
independence. Investing in composting
initiatives is essential for schools to capitalize on
these benefits and pave the way for a greener,
economically viable future.
