| www.vikalp.org.in - Waste is end product of an activity which has no further use. However this concept is based on inability to find waste management solutions, and is not in accordance with the concept of 'Zero Waste'. It must be understood that waste of one activity may be resource for another. Waste in any form is damaging to the environment & impacts human health adversely. Waste can be broadly classified into three main categories, namely municipal solid & liquid waste, bio-medical solid& liquid waste, and industrial waste (including E-waste). In essence all these are damaging to environment and cause pollution; thus compromising human health. Pollutants to the eco-system are Physical, Chemical, Biological, & Radiological. Quantum of waste is directly proportionate to population and changing life style (consumerism), hence growing in quantity and complexity by the day. Protection to environment to protect the eco-system which is essential to sustain life on the planet should therefore be of paramount importance to all. Humans are exclusively responsible for exploitation of environment and eco-system despite the fact that they are most vulnerable to the changes in the ecological balance. At the same time it is the humans only who have capacity to repair damage to the environment & eco-system. |
