Waste Reduction: One of the most effective ways to manage solid waste is to reduce the amount of waste generated. This can be achieved through practices like reducing packaging, reusing materials, and promoting sustainable lifestyles. Recycling: Recycling involves the collection and processing of materials for reuse. This strategy can help reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills, conserve resources, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Landfills and Waste-to-Energy: Landfills and waste-to-energy facilities are commonly used to manage solid waste. Modern landfills are designed with protective liners and systems to capture and treat leachate and methane gas. Waste-to-energy facilities use incineration to generate electricity, but they must comply with strict environmental regulations to prevent harm to human health and the environment.
