Waste Diversion Strategies
Waste diversion strategies are methods used to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills. They include recycling, composting, and reusing materials to keep them in circulation and out of waste streams. Recycling involves processing materials like paper, glass, and plastics into new products, while composting transforms organic waste into nutrient-rich soil. Reusing items helps extend their life and minimize waste. These strategies not only conserve resources but also reduce environmental pollution and lower disposal costs, making them essential for sustainable waste management.
