Kukatpally to get a new Environmental Theme Park

An ‘Environmental Theme Park’, which has been designed and developed with eco-friendly waste disposal mechanisms, is being planned at the Asbestos Colony in Kukatpally. 

The GHMC's permaculture approach is a unique feature that differentiates the park from the rest in the entire city.  

Permaculture is a self-sustainable agricultural ecosystem that doesn’t need any input from human beings. 

The state officials are planning on inviting students for field trips to this park in order to spread awareness of self-sufficient ecosystems.

The theme park also will display informative boards, documentaries, and working models on sustainable agriculture. 

It will further have a rainwater harvesting facility, an organic waste converter and an incinerator to dispose of sanitary napkins and diapers. 

Other features, like a shredder to reduce the volume of waste, a pyrolysis model to convert multi-layered plastic/dead plastic into diesel and a ‘Vayu Jal’ machine that converts humidity into drinkable water, etc, are also included.
