Waste management procedures

Answer:
When I think about waste management I draw a flowchart about each major waste life cycle. Something like: where it is generated, when it is collected to an internal collection station, labeled and stored, and how it is handled (can be internal recycle, can be internal re-use, can be transport to an authorized waste operator and in that case, we need contact and fill legal documents).

For each step I think about how to transmit, how to show the correct practices – I can use a written document, a work instruction; I can use a series of drawings or pictures, what some call a kamishibai; I can use short films, I can use games people play to learn how to act.

In the particular case of cruise ships, I imagine, without experience, that they have their own incineration plants as a way of handling wastes.
