Good management of wastes: Towards a more comprehensive concept of environmental sustainability

Abstract

The sustainable development, as a concept, is the activities which have been acknowledged so as to guarantee a healthy life and productive for the individuals, setting up the principle of equality between the present and the future generations. In this context, the sustainability has become related much more to the ecological systems;andWith rapid urbanization, accompanied by an increase in waste production rates, which, in turn, constitute a threat to various levels of the environment, health and economy, because they are closely related to the production and consumption of communities, the global bet is focused on protecting the environment and achieving the concept of sustainability in accordance with international standards To achieve the development model that both organizations and individuals are working to adopt. nowadays studies have been directed towards “the waste management” and “the circular economy” since they are conform to the norms of the sustainable development. The theory of the waste management lies into converting the concept of waste from “the problem of burden” into “how to renew the resources” since it works through lowering, reusing and recycling on the basis of the principle selections of transition into the concept of “the green economy” and “the green energy”, The green economy expresses a new paradigm for sustainability by turning to the idea of "economy without waste" by converting the fauna into usable resources through the use of green (the clean ) technologies. the access to an environmentally friendly economy depends on waste management as a resource instead of limited resources and as a resource for renewable energies, ie, access to waste management in the context of the circular economy to achieve a zero waste economy. Thus, efficient and efficient waste management is a pivotal and critical point of conservation of threatened resources; Focus on energy recovery, reuse and recycling to minimize waste
