Introduction to urban wastes The understanding of waste is different from places to individuals to society. But, it is common issue which requires immediate action. The level of understanding the concept and fundamentals of waste is an important for the sustainable management of waste. Urban wastes are typically the waste products produced from urban residents, factories, hotels, motels, resturants and many more firms. But the number of firms which manages urban wastes is very low and also the fundings to the work related to its management is still very low. It might be amazing that why is my report focusing on only urban wastes. As we know most of our world population is concentrated in urban areas and leading to very sparsely dense population in rural areas. Much more in urban areas suburbs are highly populated and are much busy in their day to day life. The generated urban waste is in the form of solid wastes, semi solid waste (mostly industrial effluents), and liquid wastes in the form of both biodegradable and non-degradable (chemical outlets from hospitals and industries). It is very easy to collect wastes in tubs and dustbins, collect them in a side of garden and later on deposit them to garbage vans. Much easier is for garbage vans as they only pay attention on collection not on classification. All of the urban wastes will get a holy palces to be deposited. It is boon for the wastes to be deposited in holy rivers and lands which are primarily not intended to be deposited those wastes, but a bane for those rivers, the microbial populations in river, aquatic populations in river. It is not limited to direct relationship of wastes and effect on water bodies, indirect relationship can be accessed as water pollution causes indirectly soil pollution and the impact on crop health too. It is we humans who do not manage our wastes and it is we humans who are subject to its impact. Is there any possibilities to manage urban wastes? Yes, there is possibility to manage urban wastes but mostly our works, our awareness campaigns are still limited to its application. It does not sense that we stop working on it, we should work more and more aware more and more so that each day negligible decrease of urban waste generation impact one day a significantly difference in waste generation to past days. The possible management options working to reduce urban wastes are: Public awareness, youth campaigns and site represented cleaning activities An introduction to reduce, reuse and recycle mechanism is more powerful to decrease urban waste generation ratio. Plastic wastes generated can be used to make artificial ornamentals, in gardening, as a planting materials. The use of waste bottles can be used as a planting materials and also the wasted beverage plastic bottles promises to store grains and pulses more effectively. The allocation of specific dumping sites in marginal lands. The classification of waste by bio-degradable and non-degradable, and also its deposition in specific site is recommended. The number and efficiency of recycling firms should be increased to work more effectively Recycling and purifying the effected water bodies and their cleaner production Picture link: https://www.developmentaid.org/#!/news-stream/post/20168/eu-co-finances-the-development-of-jujuys-urban-waste-management-plan |

Hello Sandesh,
Green Cheers
Urban Wastes are one of the greatest pollutant in current scenario. We only think about using industrial products but forget about its environmental impact. We must minimize its use and aware people and community and pressurize industrial fraternity to control excessive residue outflow in the surrounding area.
