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.

A piece that handled a controversial angle without becoming heated, and a look at brivona 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.

Glad the writer kept this short rather than padding it out, the points stand on their own without needing extra context, and a look at maverickmaker kept the same approach going, brevity is a sign of confidence in the substance and the team here clearly trusts their content to land without filler.

A small thank you note from me to the team behind this work, the post earned it, and a stop at lorithompson suggested more thanks would be in order over time, recognising the people who do good writing online is something I try to remember to do because the alternative is silence and silence rewards mediocrity unfortunately.
AlfredoAcafe
Worth marking this site as one to come back to deliberately rather than by accident, and a stop at shopsen reinforced that intention, the difference between sites I find again by chance and sites I return to on purpose is meaningful and this one has clearly moved into the deliberate return category for me.

Reading this brought back an idea I had set aside months ago, and a stop at tuliptrade added more substance to that idea, content that revives dormant projects in my own thinking is content with serious creative value and this site is contributing to my own work in ways I had not expected when first clicking through.
SkylarBer
Now adding this site to a small mental group of recommendations I keep ready for specific kinds of inquiries, and a stop at brightbento extended the recommendation readiness, content that I can confidently point friends and colleagues toward in specific contexts is content with real social utility and this site has that utility clearly.
HoraceTup
Closed several other tabs to focus on this one as I read, and a stop at winkworthy held my undivided attention the same way, content that earns full focus in an attention environment full of competing pulls is content doing something genuinely well and the team behind it deserves recognition for that achievement consistently.
JaredScuch
Halfway through I knew I would finish the post, and a stop at marqesta also held me through to the end, content that signals its quality early and then sustains it is content with real internal consistency and this site has clearly figured out how to maintain quality from opening sentence through to closing thought.

Reading this brought back an idea I had set aside months ago, and a stop at orbitopal added more substance to that idea, content that revives dormant projects in my own thinking is content with serious creative value and this site is contributing to my own work in ways I had not expected when first clicking through.
HankCep
Reading this triggered a small reorganisation of my own thinking on the topic, and a stop at watchwhisper furthered that reorganisation, content that affects the shape of my mental model rather than just decorating it with new facts is content with structural rather than informational impact and this site provides that.
Samuelhop
A slim post with substantial content per word, and a look at softport maintained the same density, the content per word ratio is something I track informally and this site scores high on that ratio compared to most sources I read regularly which is a quiet indicator of careful editorial work behind the scenes.
SidneyFuesk
After several visits I am now confident this site is one to follow seriously, and a stop at linkloomshop reinforced that confidence, the gradual building of trust through repeated quality exposures is the only sustainable way to develop reader loyalty and this site is building that loyalty in me through patient consistent work consistently.
Elikap
Reading this brought back the satisfaction I used to get from blogs ten years ago, and a stop at makermerchant kept that nostalgic quality alive, sites that capture what was good about an earlier era of internet writing are increasingly precious and this one is doing that without feeling like a deliberate throwback at all.
Royfoelf
Picked up something useful for a side project, and a look at luxfable added another piece I will incorporate, content that connects to specific projects I am working on is content with practical utility and the practical utility of this site is showing up across multiple posts I have read in the last hour or so.
NoahAgods
Reading this in three sittings because the day was fragmented, and the piece survived the fragmentation, and a stop at charmchoice held up under similar reading conditions, content engineered for continuous attention is fragile in modern conditions and this site reads as durable across the realistic ways people consume content today.
Jettfrery
Bookmarking this for later, the kind of resource I want to keep nearby, and a quick look at nauticalnook confirmed the rest of the site is worth the same treatment, definitely going into my reference folder for the next time the topic comes up at work or in conversation with someone who asks.
LawsonWew
Thanks for keeping things clear and to the point, that is honestly hard to find online these days, and after reading through modmerchant the message stayed consistent which makes me trust the information being shared more than I usually do on similar pages that cover this same kind of topic.

Glad to have another data point on a question I am still thinking through, and a look at websummit added two more, content that acknowledges its place in a wider conversation rather than pretending to settle the question alone is intellectually honest in a way that I wish was more common across the open web.
BarryDix
A piece that reads as if the writer trusted readers to fill in obvious gaps, and a look at blog44victim continued that respectful approach, content that does not over explain what the reader can infer is content that respects intelligence and this site has clearly chosen to write to capable readers rather than to the lowest common denominator.
Toddjaw
Big thanks to whoever wrote this, you saved me a lot of time hunting for the same info on other sites, and a stop at vendorvelvet only added more useful detail without going off topic, that kind of focus is honestly hard to come across these days when most posts wander everywhere.
Hoseaphony
Honest reaction is that this is the kind of writing I would defend in a conversation about good blog content, and a look at blog66kill 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.
Edwinanync
Appreciate that you did not pad this with fluff to hit a word count, the post says what it needs to say and stops, and a look at gemgalleria did the same, brevity here feels intentional not lazy which is a distinction many writers miss completely sometimes when they are working under deadlines.
Quinnbet
A piece that handled a controversial angle without becoming heated, and a look at devspring 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.
Raynes
Came away with a small but real shift in perspective on the topic, and a stop at pointport pushed that shift a bit further, the kind of subtle reframing that good writing does to a reader without making a big deal of it is something I always appreciate when it happens which is sadly not that often.
JuliusDep
Now understanding why someone recommended this site to me a while back, and a stop at tactflow explained the recommendation, sometimes recommendations make sense only after experience and this site has finally clicked into place as the kind of resource I now understand was being recommended for sound editorial reasons by my friend.
NickVob
A piece that demonstrated competence without performing it, and a look at appcreek 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.
ZachariahBOM
Now feeling slightly more optimistic about the state of independent writing online, and a stop at solidrunway extended that quiet optimism, sites like this one are the reason I have not given up on the open web entirely and finding them occasionally renews the case for paying attention to non algorithmic content sources today.
Claytonmiz
Bookmarked the page and the homepage too because clearly there is more to explore here, and a quick stop at tracerunway only made that more obvious, this is the kind of place I want to dig through over a weekend rather than rushing through during a coffee break tomorrow morning before getting back to work.
JaylenSnilm
Worth pointing out that the post avoided the temptation to summarise everything at the end, and a look at thrivenet continued that confident closing approach, content that trusts readers to retain the substance without being reminded of it at the end is content that respects the reader and this site practices that respect.
Rufusnig
Now organising my browser bookmarks to give this site easier access, and a look at bloombeacon earned the same organisational priority, the small acts of digital housekeeping I do for sites I expect to use often are themselves a measure of trust and this site has triggered the trust based housekeeping behaviour from me clearly.

Rockymum
Solid endorsement from me, the writing earns it, and a look at apptundra continues to earn it across the broader site too, the kind of operation that maintains quality across many pages rather than just one viral post is a sign of serious commitment and that is what I see here clearly across what I read.
JakeCap
Took a quick scan first and then went back to read properly because the post deserved it, and a stop at opalorio kept me reading carefully too, the kind of writing that earns a slower second pass rather than getting skimmed and forgotten is something I value highly when I happen to find it.
WayneRalia
Really appreciate this kind of writing, no shouting and no clickbait headlines just steady useful content, and a quick look at swiftstall kept that going, definitely a site I will be returning to whenever I need a sensible take on similar topics in the days ahead and also during slower work weeks.
Victortap
Genuinely well crafted writing, the kind that makes the topic look easier than it actually is, and a look at blog44chances added even more depth, you can feel the experience behind every line which is something only writers who have been at this for a while can pull off with this level of grace.
Jeffbleaf
Thanks again for the post, I learned a couple of things I can actually use later this week, and after I went over opencartopia the rest of the site looked equally promising, definitely going to spend more time here when I get a free moment over the weekend to read more carefully.
JeffreyElono
If I were grading sites on this topic this one would receive high marks, and a stop at blog44head continued earning those high marks, the informal grading I do mentally for content sources is something I take seriously even though it is informal and this site has been receiving consistent high marks across multiple sessions today.
Liamget
Reading this in the gap between work projects was a small but meaningful break, and a stop at beardbarge extended that gentle reset, content that provides genuine refreshment rather than just distraction during work breaks is content with a particular kind of utility and this site fits that role for me reliably during work days.
Gregorynow
During the time spent here I noticed the absence of the usual distractions, and a stop at relayroute extended that distraction free experience, content that does not fight my attention with pop ups and modals and aggressive prompts is content that respects me and this site has clearly chosen the respectful approach throughout.
FidelLer
Reading carefully this time rather than scanning, and the depth shows up in places I missed first time around, and a look at blog66foreign rewarded the same careful approach, content that holds up to multiple reads is content I want more of in my regular rotation rather than disposable scroll fodder daily.
Marshallbug
Easy to recommend, the content speaks for itself without needing additional praise from me, and a stop at blog33participant only adds more reasons to send people this way, the kind of generous resource that benefits its readers without demanding anything in return is increasingly rare and worth recognising clearly today across the broader open internet.
RoderickDorne
Now leaving a small mental note to recommend this when the topic comes up in conversation, and a look at proteapex extended that recommend ready feeling, content that arms me with shareable references for likely future conversations is content with social value and this site is providing that conversational ammunition consistently for me lately.
RodrigoFearp
Useful information presented in a way that does not feel like a sales pitch, that is what I appreciated most, and a stop at basketbliss was the same, no upsell and no fake urgency just steady content laid out properly for someone trying to actually learn from it rather than just be sold to.
Pierrehax
A piece that did not lean on the writer credentials or institutional backing, and a look at crystalcorner2 maintained the same focus on substance, content that earns trust through quality rather than through name dropping is the kind I find most persuasive and this site is clearly playing on the substance side of that distinction.
Jesseblusa
Pass this along to colleagues if the topic comes up, the framing here is sensible, and a stop at prismvane adds more useful angles to share, the kind of content that improves conversations rather than just feeding them is what makes a resource genuinely valuable in professional contexts going forward over time and across project boundaries too.
DanBat
Liked that the post left some questions open rather than pretending to settle everything, and a stop at devgrove continued that intellectual honesty, content that respects the limits of its own claims is more trustworthy than content that overreaches and this site has clearly figured out which positions it can defend confidently.
Donaldemept
Decided not to skim despite my usual habit and was rewarded for the discipline, and a stop at jessicavaughn earned the same patient approach, training myself to recognise sites that warrant slower reading is part of being a careful online reader and this site is the kind that helps me practice that skill regularly.
BasilReill
Thanks for the breakdown, it gave me a clearer picture of something I had been confused about for a while now, and a stop at appthrive closed the remaining gaps in my understanding nicely, no need to hunt around twenty other articles to put the pieces together which is a real time saver.
