Answer:
waste management in India falls under the purview of the Union Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change (MoEF&CC). In 2016 this ministry released the Solid Wastage Management (SWM) Rules, 2016, these rules replaced the Municipal Solid Wastages (Management and Handling) Rules, 2000 which had been in place for 16 years.[1] This national policy is notable in that it has acknowledged and included the informal sector (waste pickers) into the waste management process for the first time.
Urban India (about 377 million people) generates 62 million tonnes of municipal solid waste (MSW) each year. Of this about 43 million tonnes (70%) is collected and 11.9 million tonnes (20%) is treated. About 31 million tonnes (50%) is dumped in landfill sites.[2][3]
With changing consumption patterns and rapid economic growth it is estimated that urban municipal solid waste generation will increase to 165 million tonnes in 2030.[4][5][6]
Step-by-step explanation:
Waste management (or waste disposal) include the activities and actions required to manage waste from its inception to its final disposal.[1] This includes the collection, transport, treatment and disposal of waste, together with monitoring and regulation of the waste management process.
Waste can be solid, liquid, or gas and each type has different methods of disposal and management. Waste management deals with all types of waste, including industrial, biological and household. In some cases, waste can pose a threat to human health.Waste is produced by human activity, for example, the extraction and processing of raw materials.Waste management is intended to reduce adverse effects of waste on human health, the environment or aesthetics.
Waste management practices are not uniform among countries (developed and developing nations); regions (urban and rural areas), and residential and industrial sectors can all take different approaches.
A large portion of waste management practices deal with municipal solid waste (MSW) which is the bulk of the waste that is created by household, industrial, and commercial activity
