One of the solutions is by implementing the Waste Management Hierarchy. The real problem with the waste management is the composition of type of waste, which can be divided into two groups; wet waste (from kitchen waste) and dry waste. Composting is one of the possible solutions. But 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle) are always being referred to solve the dry waste problem.
