Hey mate here is your answer...
The growing world population is causing negative impacts on the planet. The current model of production and consumption generates a lot of waste that, in many cases, does not get reused or recycled. For instance, in Europe, every citizen generates an average 1.69 kg of waste a day, i.e. 620 kg per year. Sixty percent of the volume of waste generated comes from packaging and product containers, often designed for just a single use. Until only a few years ago, waste management focused mainly on sending it to tips to pile up or to incinerators. This solution is unsustainable for several reasons: It carries serious risks for the environment, living beings and human health It does not reduce the consumption of resources (raw materials and energy) It does not act on the cause (the consumption model), only on the consequence (waste management).
hope it will help you.
