WASTE MANAGEMENT
WASTE MANAGEMENT
Waste management is the process of collecting, handling, and properly disposing of waste materials to reduce their harmful effects on people and the environment. It aims to keep our surroundings clean, safe,
and sustainable.
Key Steps in Waste Management:
1. Reduce – Minimize waste by using only what is needed.
2. Reuse – Find new purposes for items instead of throwing them away.
3. Recycle – Process used materials (like paper, plastic, glass, and metal) into new products.
4. Segregation – Separate biodegradable (food, garden waste) from non-biodegradable (plastic, metal, glass) materials.
5. Proper Disposal – Hazardous and non-recyclable waste should be safely disposed of in sanitary landfills or treatment facilities.
Importance of Waste Management:
Protects human health by preventing diseases.
Reduces pollution of land, air, and water.
Conserves natural resources through recycling.
Promotes a clean and green environment for future generations.
✅ Example: In the Philippines, Republic Act 9003 or the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000 provides guidelines on proper waste segregation, recycling, and disposal.
