Solid waste management is a civic problem and it has to evolve optimally and continuously to serve the future generation. Solid wastes if unchecked can not only be a health hazard but will impart multidimensional threats, which include serious detrimental, environmental, social, and economic impacts. Solid waste management in developing countries is a complex issue as the types of wastes generated vary widely because of the varying localities with diverse populations. The boundaries of the analysis of the "waste problem" are difficult to define.

Everyone is part of the solid waste generation problem and everyone shall also be part of the solution of proper management i.e., solution depends upon collective human action and efforts.
