We'll examine the effects of changing lifestyles and rapid urbanization on waste generation, and explore the urgent need for both short-term and long-term solutions in solid waste management.
The video highlights the crucial role of urban local bodies (ULBs) in waste collection, transportation, and disposal, as well as the new Solid Waste Management Rules introduced by the Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change.
