respectively, making up 35% of the world’s waste. We are continuously struggling with the out-of-date landfill strategies that had destroyed our water table and contaminated the water supply systems. With the implications of waste minimisation it can drastically cut down the operational cost of waste management thus indicate that nation is a developed nation. The World Bank reports that the world generates 2.01 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste annually, with at least 33 percent of that—extremely conservatively—not managed in an environmentally safe manner. Worldwide, waste generat- ed per person per day averages 0.74 kilogram but ranges widely, from 0.11 to 4.54 kilograms. Though they only account for 16 percent of the world’s population, high-in- come countries generate about 34 percent, or 683 million tonnes, of the world’s waste.
