Question

conclusion on solid waste management of south korea ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Introduction

Perhaps one of the biggest frustrations for a foreigner living in Seoul, South Korea is the apparent lack of public rubbish bins in and around bustling areas. Be it a main road filled with shops, a park, a landmark, a shopping centre, it is less than common to encounter a bin for disposing of rubbish. As a result, the main streets of Seoul are often filled with rubbish, from side walks to alleyways, and it is not uncommon to see locals also disposing of rubbish in a pre-existing rubbish pile on the side of the road. Though it is not uncommon to see an aluminium can here or there in the cities of Australia, it is rare to see a build up of public littering to the extent visible in Seoul. On the rare occasion where a public rubbish bin can be found, they are often filled to the brim and overflowing onto the side walks.
