Question

which of the following term gives an idea about the extent of consumption of resources and waste generation by a country or by an individual in a country.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

• Waste (or wastes) are unwanted or unusable materials. Waste is any substance which is discarded after primary use, or is worthless, defective and of no use. A by-product by contrast is a joint product of relatively minor economic value. A waste product may become a by-product, joint product or resource through an invention that raises a waste product's value above zero.
