A Study on Students' Perspective Towards Solid Waste Management in Mumbai City

Solid waste management (SWM) is an important indicator for overall health of citizens and environment of the locality. In modern civil society, SWM has been a serious issue in economic development, environmental degradation and human health. One of the main reasons of solid waste generation beyond imagination is rapid urbanisation, industrialization, exponential increase in use of plastics, improved standard of living etc. SWM has no longer been an issue ,limited to urban cities and clusters but also commercial and industrial areas, workplaces , offices , market yards , shops, hotels , hospitals , social organisations , agriculture sector , real estate sector are generating considerable amount of solid waste . Also due to the improved life style, generation of E-waste and concept of use and throw, has added to the already monstrous issue of SWM. And last but not the least, increasing use of disposable items has added to the SWM challenge.

Considering the current scenario, it becomes all in all more important to understand the perspective of students as they are easily accessible in terms of creating awareness and educating our society.
