Waste Classification

Slide Content

The slide titled "Waste classification" covers four different categories of waste, each represented by an icon and labeled: Carcinogen, indicating substances that can cause cancer; Threat to Surface Water and Soil, highlighting waste that can harm these environmental components; Explosive, denoting materials that can detonate; and Electronic Waste / E-waste, referring to discarded electronic devices. These categories help inform the handling and disposal of different types of waste materials.

Graphical Look

  • The slide has a white and gray gradient background.
  • There are four circular icons with a blue background positioned horizontally across the slide.
  • Each icon depicts a white silhouette representing different types of waste: human figure with a star (Carcinogen), flames (Threat to Surface Water and Soil), explosion (Explosive), and power symbol (Electronic Waste/E-waste).
  • Beneath each icon is a white text label describing the type of waste.
  • A second row of icons shows the same symbols with a darker background.
  • On the bottom left, there's a label "Dark backgrounds versions" in gray.

The slide uses a clean and professional design, utilizing a color scheme that contrasts well with the white and darker blue icons. The repetition of shapes and icons lays out the waste classifications clearly and effectively.
