  1. Why Waste Management is Important Environmental protection Proper waste management helps protect the environment by reducing pollution and preserving natural resources. Public health Improper disposal of waste can lead to the spread of diseases and contamination of soil and water, which can have serious consequences for public health. Economic benefits Effective waste management can create jobs and reduce the costs associated with waste disposal, such as landfill construction and maintenance. Resource conservation Recycling and other forms of waste management can conserve natural resources by reducing the demand for new raw materials and reducing the energy used in the production process.
