Ignorance is not really blissful when it culminates in a toxic affair. This fact holds particularly true in the case of waste management in India.
Most urban cities in India, with its burgeoning population, face a massive waste management challenge. With more than 377 million people living in urban cities and towns, generating close to 60 million tonnes of municipal solid waste per annum, the situation continues to be bleak. This is because most of the waste, almost 31 million tonnes of it, goes into the open landfills, leaving the rest to be recklessly dumped on streets.
Ritvik Rao, an expert in the field, points out that it is we who are to blame for that. “Why is the waste generated in our houses someone elses business? Being ignorant about our responsibility and contribution to the cycle of waste generation is one of the biggest problems with waste management in India. Source segregation is one of the most crucial ways to combat it, but first, we need to learn to be accountable for our waste,??? says the 32-year-old.
