The major environmental fallout of a robust consumption driven economic growth is the generation of a growing amounts of municipal wastes. Many cities and towns are overwhelmed by the increase in the volume of waste that they must manage with every passing year. The variety and complexity of materials now demands higher capacity levels to collect, manage and dispose of waste safely. Only such a transition can stop harm being done to the environment and in turn, human health. Evidently, few local bodies are equipped to perform the task. Although, they are mandated by the Municipal Solid Waste Management Rules,2000, to adopt specific protocols,hardly any have made any strenuous effort in this direction(dealing the waste such as municipal solid waste, bio medical waste and the less visible, but very toxic E-waste). The problem is compounded by the absence of segregated collection systemsand separated streams for different types of wastes. What cities and towns produce are an amalgam of municipal, hazardous and toxic wastes. When such refuge is open-burnt toxins are released. Burying produces Leachate that percolates into groundwater, again, with serious implications for public health. Fortunately, the dangers are now recognized and solutions to reduce, recycle, compost and ultimately dispose of a small quantum of waste in a scientific manner are available. Policy corrections are necessary to avoid converting the country into a dumping ground for E-waste. Waste management must become the centre piece of enlightened policy for cities and towns to breathe easy.
