Solid waste is defined as a group of waste produced by humans in their daily lives and which are characterized by having a solid state, a characteristic that makes them different from other types of waste such as liquids and gases. It should be noted that this type of waste is the one that humans generate with greater abundance, this is because almost anything that humans do involves the use of this type of waste, in addition to that with regard to space as such, it is these that occupy a greater percentage, since they are very difficult to biodegrade.
At present the lifestyle of people is clearly consumerist, which is why a large number of solid waste is generated, especially those industries that have different types of presentation for the same product, for which they use different types of Materials such as plastic, cardboard, paper, glass, polystyrene, which although they can be reusable, if discarded can take decades to decompose, causing large amounts of garbage to accumulate, not to mention that many of these waste can become toxic to health.
That is why in recent decades the reduction of this type of waste has become so important, for this reason it is required that people become aware and contribute their grain of sand, either reusing what they can as well as contribute to recycling, selecting your garbage appropriately and depositing it in the containers of the color corresponding to the type of waste and at macro levels, encouraging the creation of new plants that are dedicated to the treatment of materials so that they can be useful again.
This means that the eradication of this evil will depend on the group of all members of society since, as mentioned above, only by changing people's mentality can change occur. That is why the initiative for new alternatives to this problem must begin in small communities, since all of them will surely see its fruits over the years.
