Answer:
Spoilage of landscape
Much of the world's solid waste is simply dumped onto vacant land and left to decompose. Open dumps not only ruin the natural beauty of the land but also provide a home to rats and other disease carrying organisms. Both open dumps and landfills may contain poisonous substances that seep into the groundwater or flow into streams and lakes.
Concept of waste management
There is need to manage the waste properly. Therefore, public awareness of the health hazards of waste is necessary. No doubt, waste disposal has become a big industry employing thousands of workers but the options for its disposal are limited, the main disposal sites are the land, water or the air. One of the easiest ways of management of waste is the '3-R' system, i.e. Reduction, Reuse and Recycle.
Pollution as a impact of waste accumulation
Accumulation of waste is probably the most visible form of pollution. Every year human beings dispose of billions of metric tonnes of solid waste. The main sources of waste are domestic, commercial, industrial, municipal and agricultural wastes. Agriculture and the food processing industry are considered to be the largest contributors to the total annual production of solid waste.
