NEW DELHI: Highlighting how a large share of municipal waste can be prevented from getting dumped at landfills by recycling them, a report prepared by the housing and urban development ministry has recommended a complete ban on the disposal of recyclables at such sites. It has also recommended state pollution control boards and urban development and industry departments introduce a tax for the dumping of all municipal waste in landfills
The report comes at a time when cities are struggling to get rid of mountains of municipal wastes, including the three such big legacy dumpsites in Delhi. Cities are also finding it difficult to find new landfill sites.
The report titled 'Circular Economy in Municipal Solid and Liquid Waste' said: "Disposing of recyclables in landfills/dumpsites not only leads to loss of valued resources but also causes environmental pollution." It has also recommended that the government reduce the GST and other taxes on products made from recycled materials to 5% to encourage the recycling of waste.
The report prepared by experts from the IITs reputed research institutes, and government entities gain importance as a large share of untreated and unprocessed municipal wastes reach dump yards or get into water bodies and pose a major crisis amid a spurt in urbanization with little planning to tackle such challenges.
It has been estimated that proper treatment of municipal solid, wet, and construction wastes can generate nearly Rs 30,000 crore revenue per annum and create employment opportunities for more than one crore people by 2025. Currently, India generates approximately 1.4 lakh tonnes of solid waste daily and 35% of this is dry waste. A major share of dry waste is plastic. The report says that approximately 26,000 tonnes of plastic waste is generated daily and out of these only 15,600 tonnes are recycled. Around 9,400 tonnes are left uncollected and these go to the landfills or water bodies.
The report has estimated that material recycling facilities can help improve recovery from the current Rs 5,187 crore per annum from dry municipal waste to Rs 17,023 crore by 2025.

Just nice to read something that does not feel like it was assembled from a content brief, and a stop at brixelway kept that handcrafted feel going, you can tell when a real human with real understanding is behind the words versus a templated piece churned out for an algorithm to find.

One of the more thoughtful posts I have read recently on this topic, and a stop at sunnyflowercases added even more weight to that impression, this is genuinely good content that holds its own against far better known sites in the same space without trying to imitate any of them at all which I appreciate.
CamdenDuh
Honest reaction is that this is the kind of writing I would defend in a conversation about good blog content, and a look at cnsbiodesk reinforced that, the rare site whose work I would actively recommend rather than just tolerate is the kind I want to support through return visits regularly.
ColbyThemo
Decided this was the kind of site I would defend in a discussion about good blog content, and a stop at clicktoexploregrowthideas reinforced that, very few sites earn active defence rather than passive consumption and this one has clearly crossed that threshold for me without needing any explicit pitch from the writers themselves either.
JuliusNuh
Reading this back to back with a similar piece elsewhere made the quality difference obvious, and a stop at tekvo only widened the gap, comparing content side by side is a useful exercise and the gap between this site and average competitors in the space is large enough to be noticeable from the first paragraph.
Mariosnard
Liked the way the post got out of its own way, and a stop at olvra extended that invisible craft, the best writing you barely notice while reading because it is doing its work without drawing attention to itself and this site has clearly mastered that disappearing act across the pieces I have read.
Dreerels
Nice and clean, that is the best way to describe the writing here, no clutter and no wasted words, and a quick visit to xelio kept that going, I appreciate when a site treats its readers like people who can think for themselves without needing constant hand holding through every paragraph.

A memorable post for me on a topic I had thought I was tired of, and a look at trivoxbonding suggested the same site can refresh other tired topics, sites that can revive my interest in subjects I had written off as exhausted are doing rare work and this one is clearly doing that for me today.
ArthurAnnex
Reading this on a long flight and finding it the best thing I read across hours of trying, and a stop at kavix kept the streak going, when content beats long flight reading you know it has substance because flight reading is a hard test of a piece given the alternatives available everywhere.

However selective I am about new bookmarks this one made it past my filter, and a look at nevironext confirmed the bookmark was worth the slot, the precious slots in my permanent bookmark folder are difficult to earn and this site earned one without making me think twice about whether the slot was justified by the quality.
EdwardVap
Found a couple of useful angles in here I had not considered before reading carefully, and a quick stop at ieeb added more, this is one of those sites where the value compounds the more you read rather than peaking at one viral post and then offering nothing else of substance afterwards which is common.
FinnCag
Liked that there was nothing performative about the writing, and a stop at clickforstrategicplanning continued that genuine quality, performative writing tries to be witnessed rather than read and the difference between performance and substance is huge for the careful reader and this site has clearly chosen substance every time clearly.
NedHak
Reading this in segments because the day was busy, and the post survived the fragmented attention well, and a stop at xylix held up similarly under interrupted reading, content that can withstand modern distracted reading patterns rather than requiring a perfect block of focused time is increasingly the kind I prefer.
Waynekef
Just wanted to say this was useful and leave a small note of thanks, and a quick visit to globalbusinessalliances earned a similar nod from me, the small acknowledgements add up over time and represent the real economy of trust that good content runs on across the open and increasingly fragmented modern internet.
Bradfordsmeag
Glad to find a site whose links lead somewhere worth going rather than back to itself for SEO juice, and a stop at rixaroline kept that generous outbound feel, citing other peoples work with real respect rather than just for ranking signals is a sign of an honest operation worth supporting going forward.
ClarenceDraip
Better signal to noise ratio than most places I check on this kind of topic, and a look at maveromart kept that going, every paragraph here carries something worth reading rather than padding out the page to hit some arbitrary length target that search engines reward but readers ignore as soon as they notice it.
Jonecots
A piece that earned its conclusions through the body rather than asserting them at the end, and a look at qelaroflow maintained the same earned quality, conclusions that follow from what came before are more persuasive than declarations and this site has clearly internalised that principle in how it constructs arguments throughout pieces.
RobinFealf
Now I want to find more sites like this but I suspect they are rare, and a look at ulixo extended that thought, the few sites that meet this quality bar are precious specifically because they are rare and finding others like them is one of the ongoing projects of careful internet curation across the years.
BasilBup
The overall feel of the post was professional without being stuffy, and a look at trusteddealmarketplace kept that approachable expertise going, finding the right register for technical content is hard but this site has clearly figured out how to sound knowledgeable without slipping into that distant lecturing tone that loses readers in droves every time.
Darylimady
A piece that handled a controversial angle without becoming heated, and a look at pelvo continued that calm engagement, content that can address contested topics without inflaming them is doing rare diplomatic work and this site has clearly developed the editorial maturity to handle sensitive material with the appropriate temperature of writing throughout.
Bradleyowemo
Better than most of the writing I have come across on this topic recently, simpler and more direct, and a look at xelivohub continued in that same way, a real outlier in a crowded space full of repetitive content that says little while taking up a lot of reader time today which is unfortunate.
Sterlingsox
Most of the time I bounce off similar pages within seconds, and a stop at zorivoholdings held me longer than I would have predicted, the ability to convert a likely bouncing visitor into an engaged reader is a quality signal and this site has demonstrated that conversion ability across multiple visits where I expected to bounce.
Tedinamp
Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sensible take on this topic without the usual marketing nonsense, and a look at freespeechcolation kept that grounded approach going, sites that stay focused on serving readers rather than monetising every click are rare and this is clearly one of those rare ones I really appreciate finding.

Honestly enjoyed every minute spent here, that is not something I say lightly, and a look at smartconsumerbuyingzone confirmed I will be back, the bar for spending time online is high for me these days but this site clears it without effort which is high praise indeed from this reader who is usually rather demanding.
Arondes
Great work on keeping things readable, the post never drags or repeats itself which I really appreciate, and a stop at nexra added a bit more context that fit naturally with what was already said here, no need to read everything twice to get the point being made today.

Now recognising that this site has earned a place in the small group of resources I treat as authoritative, and a stop at velra confirmed that placement, the difference between resources I trust and resources I just consume is real and this site has clearly moved into the trusted category through consistent quality over time.
HoldennaB
Decided I would read the archives over the weekend, and a stop at cavarotrack confirmed that the archives would be worth the time, very few sites have archives I would actively read through but this one has earned that level of interest based on the consistent quality across what I have sampled so far.
Jeromejes
A piece that demonstrated competence without performing it, and a look at plavexshop maintained the same self assured but unshowy register, the gap between competence and performance of competence is one I track and this site has clearly chosen to demonstrate rather than perform which I find much more persuasive as a reader.
Stevesodia
Thank you for not assuming the reader already knows everything, the explanations meet me where I am, and a look at qorivopath did the same, that consideration is what makes a site feel welcoming rather than gatekeepy which is sadly the default mood across the modern web today for most subjects covered.
Dravenesots
If I had encountered this site five years ago I would have been telling everyone about it, and a look at plavexpath extended that retrospective enthusiasm, the version of me who used to recommend favourite blogs frequently would have made sure friends knew about this one and that earlier enthusiasm is partially returning to me here.
BrentMit
The lack of unnecessary jargon made the post accessible without sacrificing accuracy, and a look at korivomart continued in the same accessible style, technical topics often hide behind specialised vocabulary but here the writer trusts the reader to keep up with plain language and that trust pays off nicely throughout the entire post.
Wileytwedo
A piece that read as if the writer was thinking carefully rather than just typing fluently, and a look at rosetemplates continued that considered quality, the difference between fluent typing and careful thinking shows up in writing and this site reads as the product of thought rather than just the product of language fluency apparently.
CoenPense
Useful read, especially because the writer did not assume too much background from the reader, and a quick look at businessunityplatform continued in the same way, a thoughtful site that meets people where they are which is something the modern web could use a lot more of for both casual and serious readers.
Luciantox
Liked everything about the experience, from the opening through to the closing notes, and a stop at rixon extended that into more pages, finding a site where the editorial vision shows through every choice rather than feeling random is an increasingly rare experience and one I am glad to have today during this particular reading session.
HarrisonPaigo
This filled in a gap in my understanding that I had not even noticed was there, and a stop at quvexoria did the same, the kind of post that gives you more than you expected when you first clicked through from somewhere else, a real find for anyone curious about the area covered here.
DomenicwaX
A piece that demonstrated competence without performing it, and a look at auralbrick maintained the same self assured but unshowy register, the gap between competence and performance of competence is one I track and this site has clearly chosen to demonstrate rather than perform which I find much more persuasive as a reader.
Cedricdem
A piece that did exactly what it promised in the headline without overshooting or underdelivering, and a look at hanacapecoral continued that calibration, alignment between promise and delivery is a basic editorial virtue that many sites fail at and this site has clearly mastered the matching of expectation and substance throughout pieces.
Vladimirlew
Now feeling the rare pleasure of trusting a source completely on first encounter, and a look at talents-affinity extended that initial trust into something more durable, the calibration of trust to evidence is something I do informally and this site has earned high trust through the cumulative weight of multiple consistently good posts already.

CamdenFopay
The depth of coverage felt about right for the format, neither shallow nor overwhelming, and a look at orvix kept that calibration going, getting the depth right for blog format is genuinely difficult because too shallow loses experts and too deep loses beginners but this site nailed it nicely which I really do appreciate.
Gerardofript
Took something from this I did not expect to find, and a stop at velixoholding added another unexpected useful piece, content that exceeds expectations rather than just meeting them is the kind that builds enthusiasm and earns repeat visits without any explicit ask from the writer or platform behind the work being read.

Comfortable reading experience throughout, no jarring tone shifts and no awkward formatting, and a look at navix kept that smooth feel going, the kind of editorial polish that goes unnoticed when present but glaring when absent is something this site has clearly invested in across the broader content as well which deserves recognition.
ClarenceNug
Really appreciate the lack of pop ups, modals, cookie banners stacking on top of each other, and a quick visit to loryx confirmed the same clean approach across the rest of the site, technical decisions about user experience are part of what makes content actually pleasant to engage with for sure.
JoelDwesy
A piece that ended with a clean landing rather than fading out, and a look at quvra maintained the same crisp conclusions, endings that resolve rather than dissolve are a sign of careful structural thinking and this site has clearly invested in how its pieces conclude rather than letting them simply run out of energy.
