Growing Garbage Problem in Bangalore

Garbage problem grew exponentially in Bangalore in the recent years. The root of the problem can be linked to the rising population of Bangalore and the lack of planning by civic authorities. Till few months, our neighborhood never had the problem of waste dumping. Now, there are four active dump zones in Domlur locality, which is forever stinking and causing it to smear the locality.

Sometimes, I wonder how people can ignore such bad and foul smelling dump yards. The irony is that there are expensive apartments which boasts of price above 70 lakhs or so, are so near to these dump sites. I wonder who on earth will buy apartments and live seeing such dump yards.

Question here is, what can do to clear or reduce this mess?

Should I plant a garden to make my locality look good?
Hire someone to clean the mess? At least for few days it will look good?
Make a plan to maintain the dump yards?
Talk to the Corporator of the locality and present a plan, and give financial a
Pay extra money to waste collectors to clean the mess
Talk and form a group in the locality to sort this grabage problem

With our growing consumption, there’s no immediate remedy which I can think of. As of now, I feel I should do something about this to keep my locality a neat and welcoming one.
