The Problem
Waste management encompasses various stages, including collection, transportation, treatment, and disposal, each of which requires substantial financial resources.
Insufficient funding often leads to inadequate infrastructure and services, hindering waste collection and recycling efforts.
Municipalities and governments may struggle to allocate enough funds to support comprehensive waste management systems, resulting in improper waste disposal practices like open dumping or uncontrolled incineration, which have severe environmental and health consequences.
Moreover, recycling and waste treatment technologies demand continuous investments, making it challenging for some regions to adopt or upgrade their waste management facilities.
