The world is facing unprecedented challenges such as poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice. To address these issues, the United Nations adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, in 2015. The agenda consists of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries – developed and developing – in a global partnership.
The SDGs are interrelated and interdependent, meaning that progress in one area affects progress in others. Among the 17 goals, there are several that directly or indirectly relate to waste management, such as:
– Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation
– Goal 7: Affordable and Clean Energy
– Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities
– Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production
– Goal 13: Climate Action
– Goal 14: Life Below Water
– Goal 15: Life on Land
Waste management is a crucial component of sustainable development, as it affects human health, environmental quality, resource efficiency, and economic productivity. Poor waste management can lead to pollution, disease, greenhouse gas emissions, loss of biodiversity, and social inequality. On the other hand, effective waste management can provide multiple benefits, such as:
– Improving access to clean water and sanitation services
– Reducing energy consumption and increasing renewable energy production from waste
– Enhancing urban livability and resilience
– Promoting circular economy and resource recovery
– Mitigating climate change and adapting to its impacts
– Protecting marine and terrestrial ecosystems and biodiversity
– Empowering marginalized groups and creating green jobs
