In other words, cleaner production followed by reuse and Waste management is an ever-increasing worldwide then recycle are the key strategies to both minimizing problem, as the majority of solid waste is still disposed to primary resource consumption and landfill demand (Scott landfill (e.g. 80% of solid waste in the Sydney and Watt 2001).
One way of doing this is by using Metropolitan area, 2000), Box 15 demonstrates solid biodegradable practices or bio-convertible material as waste received and disposed of at landfill throughout much as possible (Ceballos-Lascurain 2001). Australia (1996-97).
Not only is there a pressing shortage of new landfill sites, but waste materials sent to landfills also represent a loss of resources, causing the degradation of the surrounding environment and producing significant amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas (Scott and Watt 2001). The best approach to waste management is to avoid producing waste in the first place, instead of finding ways
