Abstract
Cities, and towns, home to over half of humanity are
generating 80% of the world's GDP, and are in the front of the
global waste challenge. In India, 0.1 million tonnes of garbage is
generated every day, and 62 million tonnes of garbage every year
and this is municipal solid waste. According to the report, only
33% of the municipal waste is managed which is
environmentally safe. Developing nations of Asia and Africa
have the major issue of waste management and most of the waste
ends up in dumping and landfills. According to the 2018 project
report rapid urbanization, population growth, and economic
development are the reasons for the rapid growth in the garbage,
and this can increase 70% of the total garbage in the next 30
years.
