The growing amount of waste produced in modern society has a huge impact on the environment
Many of the materials disposed of in the general waste bin can last in the environment from hundred years to thousand years. The existence of this waste in the natural environment can cause significant impacts on plants, animals and human beings. For all these reasons and more it is important that we carefully manage our waste. Thanks to the recovery of recyclable materials and reuse of organic waste, we can significantly lower the volume of waste thus reducing the adverse effects on the environment, as well as reducing quantity of waste, recycling helps lower the use of natural resources to make different products.
Further, waste is not only an environmental problem, but also an economic loss. Food and garden waste, construction and demolition waste, mining waste, Industrial waste, old television, old cars plastic bags, sanitary waste and old furniture…the list goes on.
Apart from the above and rest, poor waste management contributes to climate change and air pollution and directly affects many ecosystems and species. An effective and positive waste management requires a joint effort by all the parties concerned. Consumers, producers, policymakers, local authorities, and treatment facilitators.
