\section*{1 \mid INTRODUCTION}
The title of the paper should be written in Garamond bold 19-point font, left side on the top of the paper. The first letter of every word in the title should be capitalized. The authors' names, following the title, must be written in Garamond bold 10 point font and their affiliations must be written in Garamond 9 point font.

All major headings are flushed with the left margin in Garamond. Headings 1 are capitalized, bold and in 16 fonts. Do not put a period after the text of the heading. Headings 2 are capitalized, bold and in 14 fonts. Headings 3 are sentence case and in 12 fonts. The whole paper should be written in ``Garamond'' font and 11 pt. Every paragraph should be justified. Line spacing at paragraphs should be multiple at 1.15 cm, and please leave one line space between two paragraphs.

\subsection*{1.1 \mid Figures and Tables}
Figures and Tables should be placed as close as possible to where they are cited. Captions should be Garamond 10 points, bold, and in sentence case. Figures and Tables should be numbered separately and consecutively. Figure captions should be center-aligned below the figures, and table captions should be center-aligned above the table body.

All inserts, figures, diagrams, photographs, and tables must be center-aligned, clear, and appropriate for black/white or greyscale reproduction.

2 & How do you dispose your household waste? & Bury it in the ground / Burn it \\ \hline
3 & What (category) of waste is dominant in your daily household waste? & Food waste / Plastic waste \\ \hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}

\subsection*{1.1.1 \mid Variables and Equations}
All equations in-text should be Times New Roman font, and 10 pt. as the sample. All equations in separate tables should be placed on separate lines, Times New Roman font and 11 pt. numbered consecutively, and left aligned with the equation numbers placed within parentheses and aligned against the right margin as shown in Eq. (1):

\begin{equation}
E = mc^2
\end{equation}

Where $E$ is energy, $m$ is mass, and $c$ is the speed of light. Be sure that the symbols in your equation have been defined before the equation appears or immediately following.
