Waste

Waste management practices are important for public health, environmental protection and sustainable development.

As waste-generation rates increase worldwide, carefully planned action is needed to minimise and avoid waste and to recycle and re-use waste materials. Direct and indirect reduction of greenhouse gases can be achieved with proper waste management solutions.
