Question

why are more waste produced in urban areas than in rural areas

Answer 1

It is very simple dear, In rural areas primary occupation is Agriculture and some of the wastage during the agriculture procedure can be decomposed easily but in Urban areas primary occupation is not the Agriculture rather the Secondary and tertiary sector is the main occupation. The more is the factory the more is the chemical and other wastage which pollutes our environment Hence in Urban areas there is more waste than rural areas.
