Refuse and refuse disposal - Waste management
Abstract
Solid waste management is a local issue with global implications. As the world’s population continues to grow, so does the amount of waste being produced. In 2015, the world generated 2 billion metric tons of solid waste. This number is expected to grow to 3.4 billion metric tons by 2050. In low-income countries, the amount of waste is expected to increase by more than three times by 2050
