“…The resources are extracted from common household waste materials such as paper/cardboard, plastic, metal, glass, rubber, leather, and textiles (Pervez et al, 2021). End users of products that were initially cleaned and sorted have become profitable merchants in factories, which use these recyclables as raw materials for manufacturing an alternative invention (Khan et al ., 2022). A materials recovery facility receives resources, whether source-separated, pre-sorted, screed, comingled, or shredded and preserves them usage as key ingredients that will enable the development of a new product in screening and planning other product developments (Zafar, 2022).…”

The predominance of unwanted materials lying fallow in the environment, and the availability of information on waste management, offer the opportunity to explore the use of these resources as sources of recovered material. Regulatory drivers aim to harmonise the recovery potentials of wastes, thereby reducing the volumes sent to landfill. In this vein, this paper investigates the emissions from municipal solid wastes, which can lead to major environmental impacts. This study assessed the influence of recovery efforts on solid waste management practices in Nigeria. This was done by examining available literature chronicling pollution from unregulated dumpsites which can bioaccumulate in the environment, causing climatic impacts. It was discovered that emissions from waste can impact soil, water, and air, thus contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. Many developed countries have recorded significant improvement in adopting treatment facilities that can enable them to meet up sustainable development goals. However, developing countries still need assistance in developing a sustainable waste management programme that can help change their lifestyle, thus improving the management of the waste they produce. It becomes imperative that making the right choices can change the consumption pattern, thus, reducing the influx of pollutants whilst fostering a clean environment. Thus, a high-level recovery of resources can secure a sustainable future and a healthy environment.

“…Management of MSW requires a proper financial budget, maintenance of existing infrastructures, and up-gradation of all activities. Problems in providing the desired level of services are escalated due to poor management of municipal corporations (Khan et al, 2022). The amount of MSW generated depends upon standard of living, eating habits, industrial and commercial activities in the area (Nadeem et al, 2022).…”

PurposeIndia has taken a successful step towards meeting Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) by providing access to basic amenities such as safe drinking water, waste management, drainage systems and bio-compost pits in households. The purpose of this study is to identify factors that significantly impact access to such basic amenities in villages in two states in the hilly regions of India.Design/methodology/approachVillage-level secondary data collected from the Unnat Bharat Abhiyan (UBA) website has been analyzed using multiple linear regression and non-parametric statistical tests. Socio-economic and demographic variables are the independent factors in regression whereas availability of basic amenities is the dependent variable.FindingsFindings reveal that in Himachal Pradesh, gender ratio, annual income per family, percentage of BPL households, percentage of pucca houses, and percentage of village population above graduation, significantly impact access to piped water in village households. Also, literacy rate and percentage of population with education above graduation significantly impact availability of compost pits. Further, in Uttarakhand, percentage of pucca houses influences access to waste collection system and availability of compost pits. Availability of drainage systems is influenced by literacy rate. A comparison between the two hilly states reveals that Himachal Pradesh is better off in terms of ease of access to drinking water whereas Uttarakhand is ahead in terms of other amenities.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors’ knowledge, no other studies have used socio-economic and demographic variables to study access to basic amenities in villages in hilly states in India.

“…The Integrated Waste Management System is a waste management system involving more community participation, is more environmentally friendly, operationally more energy and cost-efficient, and can productively increase community economic empowerment. The method referred to here is one of the alternatives to various other waste management systems, which leads to solving the weaknesses that exist in the handling of urban waste and agricultural waste in rural areas so far [24,25].…”

The Mandalika Special Economic Zone is included in five super Priority Travel Destinations throughout Indonesia. Mandalika has two main potential tourist attractions: the beauty of white sand and green hills along the coastline that stretches for 7.2 km. The target for Mandalika for Total Hotels & Resorts is 10,000 units, and villas, condominiums, and townhouses are 3800 units which will potentially become a source of waste. The total landfill in Mandalika is 215.7 tonnes/per year. Waste management, including waste reduction and handling in Mandalika, must be of particular concern to area managers, tourism managers, communities, tourists and local governments. Efforts that the Regional Government has made are increasing the number of landfills, garbage collection vehicles and cleaners. In addition, what is no less important is the need to educate the public about cleanliness and training in organic and inorganic waste management. Community involvement around Mandalika will positively impact the local community's economy because the results of waste processing by recycling and composting can be re-sold.
