Waste disposal refers to the process and methods used for getting rid of unwanted or discarded materials. This can include garbage, trash, rubbish, junk, debris, refuse, or other waste products that are no longer needed or wanted. The goal is to safely and effectively manage these materials so they do not cause harm to the environment, public health, or safety. There are various methods of waste disposal such as recycling, composting, incineration, landfilling, and dumping at sea (which is now banned in many countries). The choice of method depends on factors like the type of waste, its volume, local laws and regulations, and available resources. Proper waste management and disposal are essential for maintaining a clean and healthy environment.
