Left over food can be used to feed the animals. It can also be given to the needy. Banana leaves are biodegradable and hence can be preferred.

  1. It is better to grow hens in home so that we can give waste food and we get eggs from them.
  2. Banana leaf is better than plastics for disposal.

Listen i hope you have pet animals the leftover food can be used to feed them or you can use a biogas plant which converts the left over food into fuel. About the plates or banana leaf its better to choose banana leaf as it is biodegradable but never chose plastic because its is undegradable substance

  1.  We can create organic and biodegradable manure or the slurry needed for a biogas plant from the leftovers at home or feed it to any stray animal or pets at home.
  2. I would certainly prefer the choice of eating in a banana leaf platter rather than a plastic plate because banana leaf is more cost-effective, hygienic and biodegradable option, while plastics take a million years to decompose!

Left over food can be used for the following purposes:-1. Creating manure.2. Feed needy ones.3.feed animals.If not needed at all should be put in seperate dustbin made for biodegradable wastes.I would preffer banana leafs because the are bidegradable as compared to the plastic which takes more than hundred and hundred of years to degrade henceforth polluting the environment.
