What are the consequences of failure to address waste management with an approach that is comprehensive, long-term and sustainable?
Failure to act will result in a spiraling health and environmental crisis. Piles of trash throughout peri-urban and rural communities will further mar the landscape, contaminate safe water supply and expose the public to deadly disease carrying pathogens. The consequential impact extends beyond human health to the health of business, education, tourism, trade and economic development in general.
