Irina Safitri Zen

The round economy depends on the most extreme utilization of assets by decreasing, reusing, and reusing the components utilized. As of now, the things littered most often on the planet are Cigarettes Butts (CB) as these flotsam and jetsam are unreservedly dispersed in the marine living space, they are by and large hard to gather and extremely complex to reuse. Litter CB is an extraordinary social issue that creates unreasonable monetary expenses and serious natural issues. CB is likewise not biodegradable and profoundly poisonous to marine organic entities and presents a particular combination of physical and compound pollution. Nonetheless, little examination has been finished on the administration and reusing of this perilous waste. A few propositions have been made to integrate this loss into high-volume articles of direct creation or reusing, however assortment planned operations are missing since the on-going framework is wasteful, notwithstanding the poor natural way of behaving of residents. This work presents an on-going blend of the CB issue from all its potential viewpoints to have a worldwide vision of the existence pattern of the CB, demonstrating both the known and the holes in the information on every one of them, and plans to give a general blueprint of the moves toward follow to attempt to end such a stressing issue at the worldwide level.

Eight Years to Go to Meet the SDG Targets: How Can Waste Management Enable and be Enabled?

Venkatesh G

Waste management has evolved from the earlier five step hierarchy to include many more R’s: Reclaim, Repurpose, Remediate, Renovate, Replenish, Revere nature, being a few of them. Waste management can play a key role in the alleviation of, and the simultaneous adaptation to the repercussions of climate change. Waste valorisation, which is gradually entrenching itself, in both principle and practice, can go a long way in directly and indirectly enabling humankind to get closer to several SDG targets, and perhaps also overachieve in some respects. Value creation by adopting the R’s wherever, however, whenever and by whosoever possible, is a sine qua non for achieving the SDGs by year 2030, and continuing in the same vein thereafter, when the world will have to grapple more perceptibly with the repercussions of climate change. It is clear that we cannot avert climate change now. We can, at best, alleviate the intensity of its repercussions, though unfortunately not uniformly all over the world. This commentary paper posits waste management in the scheme of things related to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as both enabler and enabled. The exposition introduces readers to the multi dimensionality of sustainable development, and thereby of efficient, value generating waste management.
