A Review of the Long-Term Viability of Municipal Solid Waste and the Impact It Has on People

The socioeconomic effects of improper waste disposal negatively affect society’s capacity to effectively manage resources, utilize the land, and safeguard public health. Through the use of sustainable solid waste management, these challenges are tried to be solved. Resource recovery is one of the key objectives of sustainable solid waste management. An integrated trash creation, storage, collection, transportation, processing, and disposal system is known as a solid waste management (SWM) system. Waste is a byproduct of all living things returning substances to the environment; it is an inherent life cycle element. There are raw materials and energy in every commodity and product. We would be wasting precious natural resources if they were thrown away. Consequently, it is essential for sustainable waste management to: • Protect irreplaceable natural resources, • Prevent needless GHG emissions, • Protect people’s health and the environment. Due to inadequate collection coverage, a lack of transport services, and a lack of suitable treatment and disposal facilities, inadequate solid waste management puts people and the environment at the danger of air, water, and land contamination [1].
