What are the Cons of Hazardous Waste in Our Environment?
Prior to 1970, the proper disposal of hazardous waste was not given much attention by nations, including the US and other industrialized countries. The statistics and increased incidence of human health disorders and other forms of disease in later years began to draw global attention.
