Hazardous Waste Sites
Hazardous waste sites are locations where dangerous materials, such as chemicals or toxins, have been improperly disposed of or have leaked, posing risks to health and the environment. These sites may contain substances that can contaminate soil, water, and air, harming people, plants, and animals. Governments and agencies work to identify, monitor, and clean up these sites to reduce dangers and restore safety. Managing hazardous waste sites involves careful planning to prevent further pollution and protect communities from potential health hazards associated with toxic substances.
