Integrated Waste Management in Sector 6 Bucharest
Summary
Researchers conducted a study on integrated waste management in Sector 6 of Bucharest, analyzing municipal waste generation at both EU and Romanian levels and identifying the main problems associated with improper waste management. The study found that non-compliance with waste management regulations poses significant risks to urban ecosystems and called for improved strategies aligned with circular economy principles.
The purpose of the paper is to conduct a study on integrated waste management, highlighting the consequences of non-compliance with legal provisions in the field of municipal waste generation. The objectives pursued are: to carry out a scientific analysis on municipal waste at EU and Romania level; emphasizing the importance of the relationship between the natural environment of Bucharest and the proper management of waste, identifying the main environmental problems caused by proper waste management. The environmental challenges of the late twentieth century have led to a reorientation of perceptions of how the environment and human society influence each other, with the states of the world making concerted efforts to deal with new challenges: globalization, economic crisis, Climate change, the loss of the diversity of biological and ecological systems and the deterioration of the quality of the abiotic environment. The article adds value in the ecological field, one of notoriety in the context of globalization by analyzing the problems related to waste management and management in the European Union and Romania. At the same time, the aspects related to the quantitative and qualitative generation of waste sector 6 in Bucharest are analyzed and the identification of the main problems related to them together with the finding of solutions regarding their correct management. The practical implications of the theme can result from a good management of municipal waste in sector 6 Bucharest. In this sense, several important points can be suggested: identifying economically and ecologically sustainable solutions; waste management planning: reduction, reuse, recycling and disposal; educating the public about environmental issues, involving the municipal community in solving environmental issues; delegation of authority for sectoral public administration in the management of environmental issues
