1. Introduction
The Community Recycling Program Software aims to facilitate the management of recycling

activities within a community. It provides a platform for users to participate in recycling efforts, track

their contributions, and coordinate with local authorities or organizations involved in recycling

initiatives.

2. Purpose

The purpose of this software is to streamline and enhance community recycling efforts by providing a

centralized platform for residents, waste management authorities, and recycling organizations to

collaborate effectively. It aims to increase recycling rates, reduce waste sent to landfills, and promote

environmental sustainability.

3. Scope

The software will include features for :-

• User registration and profile management.

• Reporting/recording recycling activities.

• Tracking individual and community-wide recycling statistics.

• Providing educational resources on recycling practices.

• Facilitating communication between users and recycling organizations.

• Integration with existing waste management systems where applicable.
