| description |
Human activities create waste, and the
ways that waste is handled, stored, collected, and disposed
of can pose risks to the environment and to public health.
Solid waste management (SWM) includes all activities that
seek to minimize health, environmental, and aesthetic
impacts of solid waste. In urban areas, especially in the
rapidly urbanizing cities of the developing world, problems
and issues of municipal solid waste management (MSWM) are of
immediate importance. This book addresses the problem by
focusing on India. A country such as India, with its high
economic growth and rapid urbanization, requires immediate
solutions to the problems related to mismanagement of urban
waste. City managers are actively trying to understand the
problem and are seeking effective ways of intervening. They
realize that such interventions are essential to improving
the quality of their cities and to reducing adverse health
and environmental impacts. For cities to be sustainable and
to continue their economic development, they must be clean
and healthy. They need to improve their SWM systems by
adopting good collection coverage, appropriate transfer
methods, and healthy disposal practices. |
