Hence, they do not have the feeling of ‘ourselves’ about the surroundings. Secondly, scarcity of places for proper waste disposal: since population explosion exists and people accommodates in flats in cities where there are not enough places or surroundings compared to village areas and they discard things here and there. In addition, lack of proper waste segregation system by the authorities is the important reason for this menace. Moreover, the absence of strict legislation increases its severity.

On the other hand, these danger practices lead to severe impacts on several aspects of the community. First and foremost problem caused by this act is environmental pollution.

That is, these accumulated wastages are the best breeding places for bacteria, viruses and pathogens and spread various diseases. Finally, this throwaway culture discards the beauty of our nature and also affects the ecosystem of the environment.

In conclusion, change in the attitude of people is the panacea for this menace. It is not an instantly aroused issue so that it cannot be solved immediately. Government and people should work hand in hand to wipe off this ban from our society.
