Addressing the waste pollution crisis requires realistic solutions, not just idealistic plans. Over 90% of plastics end up in landfills—so why aren’t we focusing on making waste work in the systems we already have? Modern landfills with Landfill Gas-to-Energy (LFGTE) recovery transform waste into renewable energy, reducing emissions and creating value. Instead of chasing recycling myths or impractical composting, let’s design plastics (ASTM D5526) for real-world disposal. The crisis won’t wait for perfection—time to act where it matters.

Great ways to tackle waste pollution! Also, a key step is starting with refusing and reducing waste at the source by minimizing production and consumption, following the circular economy approach ♻️.

Thanks for sharing. My views listed below 👇 "Let’s make this Christmas a celebration of Christ and creation! Simple steps like using eco-friendly decorations, reducing waste, and conserving energy can honor God’s gift of the Earth. As stewards of His creation (Genesis 2:15), let’s spread awareness in our communities and churches for a sustainable Christmas. Together, we can turn goodwill into action and reduce holiday waste. Merry Christmas!" @ Pastor Avinash Singh, New Delhi, India 💕
