Several aspects, including economic factors, rules and regulations, and general sanitation practice around the world, affect how waste disposal practice varies from country to country.
Developing countries are less likely to have sanitation and waste disposal laws than developed countries, which have more structured and stringent laws and regulations. Local councils are responsible for non-hazardous residential waste; while harmless commercial waste is the responsibility of industry.
Consumerism is not a bad concept at all, but rather an abuse of good things. Over the years, consumers have become more voracious and wasteful taking more than needed. The three principles of sustainable development in this world are reduction, reuse and recycling. This is a hands-on approach and a more dedicated way to reduce the burden on resources that are currently running out. Governments, organizations and other environmental movements require everyone to be involved in practicing and installing solutions for a greener world. Recent years have brought problems with the use of fossil fuels such as pollution, hydrocarbons and overall environmental impact. By looking at events around the world, people have made a great contribution to disasters around the world. To name a few: the 2004 killing tsunami in Indonesia and Thailand killed nearly 150,000 people, Hurricane “Katrina” in the US, typhoon “Ondoy” in the Philippines, and the massive earthquake that shook Haiti. In view of these events that wasted thousands of lives, people had to be more responsible in taking responsibility for their actions. Sometimes disasters are not caused by natural events. Some of them are man-made. Here are some proofs.
1. In addition to underwater explosions, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, the detonation of nuclear devices at sea may lead to the formation of a tsunami.
2. Hurricanes can be caused by a warm ocean and low atmospheric stability. Carbon dioxide emissions create a greenhouse effect that warms the atmosphere and then warms the sea. This incident leads to the “fish being killed” (occurring in the Philippines).
3. Earthquakes are natural phenomena or phenomena. However, research shows that even mining contributes to the movement of the earth. One of the recorded devastating earthquakes is from Australia. The quake caused by changes in tectonic forces was caused by 200 years of underground coal mining.
4. Improper waste handling can cause severe flooding. Heavy rains, mismanaged waste and illegal deforestation are obvious sources of flooding.
Waste materials are thrown away when the source is considered unsuitable and has served its purpose. Waste, no matter what it may be, can often be turned into something useful or a resource that can generate energy. Solid waste is dumped or incinerated in open landfills or landfills just outside the city. Each of the waste disposal methods is harmful, causes contamination, unpleasant odors due to degradation of biodegradable substances, and loss of soil quality due to non-biodegradable substances. Most of the hazardous waste is biomedical waste because it contains pathogens. Electronic waste (such as computer parts, batteries, used or unused cell phones, and much more) car exhaust fumes and poisonous gases from industry are also major threats to humanity. Actions required to be taken in waste management programs are presented below.
1. Recycling
2. Sanitary landfill
3. Waste prevention
4. Waste segregation (bio and non-biodegradable)
5. Burning
The role of each person in waste management is very important. While it is not immediately apparent if everyone contributes, the overall effect is not only visible at the community level and waste will no longer be misplaced wealth.
