Waste management involves the generation, prevention, monitoring, treatment, reuse and disposal of solid waste. It addresses minimizing waste, different methods of transportation and treatment, storage, collection, recycling, the environment and landfills. The core ideas are reducing, reusing and recycling waste through its life cycle from design to disposal. Another key concept is resource efficiency to reduce the negative impacts of production, consumption and waste. The "polluter pays" principle also dictates that those who pollute must pay for environmental damage.

4. Common Ideas in All Waste Management
Definitions
When the waste hierarchy is discussed, it refers to reducing,
reusing and recycling which refer to waste management
strategies.

5. ReducingReducing
Is at the top of the hierarchy because
it focuses on preventing the damage
that is done by tossing trash in the
garbage.

6. ReuseReuse
In the hierarchy because it
minimizes the damage done by
waste.

7. RecyclingRecycling
Including composting. After this
is recovery of materials.

8. DisposalDisposal
A last resort for waste.
The waste hierarchy represents the progression of a material
through the stages in the pyramid that follow sequentially.

9. Core idea of the waste management definition is
the life-cycle of products
DESIGN
MANUFACTURE
USE
WASTE HIERARCHY
HTTP://WWW.ALLGREENRECYCLING.COM

10. Then it will go through the waste hierarchy:
reusing products
recovering them
recycling waste
waste disposal

11. Each of these stages in the life
cycle presents an opportunity to
intervene with policy, to make us
question the need for a product, to
reduce the potential of waste, and
to extend the period of time that
we use it.

12. The third idea of the waste management
definition is resource efficiency
This idea is centered around reducing
the negative impact of our production
and consumption from using raw
materials to our last use and disposal.

13. Polluter Pays Principle
One last idea completing the waste
management is this principle dictates
that the party that pollutes must pay for
the negative impact it causes on the
earth.
