waste diversion

Waste diversion refers to the process of redirecting waste materials away from landfills and incineration toward recycling, composting, or other reuse methods. The goal is to reduce the amount of waste that ends up as trash, minimizing environmental impact and conserving natural resources. Effective waste diversion involves separating recyclable and compostable materials from regular waste, encouraging sustainable practices, and promoting responsible consumption. It is a key component of waste management aimed at promoting environmental sustainability and reducing landfill overflow.
