Brilio.net - Falling glass can cause glass shards to scatter. The broken glass is usually thrown away immediately so that it does not cause harm. However, broken glass should be disposed of properly. The reason is, throwing broken glass carelessly creates a physical danger for anyone who accidentally steps on it.

In particular, if small, hard-to-see fragments can penetrate the skin, this risks causing deep and infected wounds . Even seemingly small fragments can be a potential danger, especially to children and pets who are unaware of their presence.

Carelessly throwing away broken glass can also cause damage to the environment. Broken debris that is not managed properly can pollute the environment, especially if it ends up being carried into water sources or soil. Chemicals from contaminated glass coatings can pollute groundwater and disrupt natural ecosystems.

This can also have a long-term impact on the lives of animals and humans who rely on these natural resources.

One safe trick for disposing of broken glass can be done by putting it in a cardboard box. Later, on the outside of the cardboard, you can write information about the broken dregs, so that waste management officers will be more careful when collecting them.
