Waste management involves a lot of processes including collecting, transporting, processing or disposing waste materials, usually those produced by activities of human, in an effort to minimize their impacts on the environment and human health. It also involves liquid, solid or gaseous, with variety of methods and fields of expertise designed for each one.

1. What the Benefits of Waste Management Try to Convey to People
Waste management involves a lot of
processes including collecting,
transporting, processing or disposing
waste materials, usually those produced
by activities of human, in an effort to
minimize their impacts on the
environment and human health. It also
involves liquid, solid or gaseous, with
variety of methods and fields of expertise
designed for each one.
The practices and benefits of waste
management are different for developed
as well as developing nations and for
commercial, residential and industrial
producers. Waste management for non-hazardous institutional and residential waste in major
areas and cities is typically the responsibility of the local environment, while management for
hazardous industrial and commercial waste is the responsibility of those generating them.
Waste management has several concepts that vary in their usage between regions or countries.
Managing industrial, commercial and domestic waste traditionally consisted of collection and
followed by disposal. Depending on the type of waste and the area, a processing level may be
followed by collection. This processing is designed to reduce the hazard of waste, generate
energy from the waste, recover materials for recycling or reduce it in volume for a more
efficient waste disposal.
Methods of collection can widely vary between different regions and countries and it is not
possible to describe them all. For instance, in Australia, most urban domestic households have
bins that are emptied on a weekly basis. Most areas, such as those less developed ones do not
have proper waste collection system in place. Disposal methods are widely varied as well. In
Australia again, the most common solid waste disposal method is to landfills. But today,
especially in major Australian cities like Brisbane, the idea of recycling has been greatly
considered especially when it has been linked to various benefits. To recycle Brisbane is an
activity that almost everyone can participate and benefit of.
Recycling means reusing materials that are otherwise considered waste or useless. The popular
definition of recycling in developing countries refers to the widespread collection and reusing of
single use beverage containers. Such containers are collected and then sorted into common
groups so the raw materials of the items can be reused.
Recycling Brisbane is very easy as common waste items such as tin cans, plastic and glass
bottles and even newspapers and magazines can be found at home.
