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.

Quality writing that respects the reader’s intelligence without overloading them, and a quick look at marblemarket reflected that approach, a balanced thoughtful site that earns trust by being consistent rather than by shouting about how trustworthy it is which is the usual approach online sadly across most content categories.

Thanks again for the post, I learned a couple of things I can actually use later this week, and after I went over quvera 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.

Refreshing tone compared to the dry corporate posts on similar topics, and a stop at benchboutique carried that personality through nicely, you can tell when a real person is behind the writing versus a content team chasing metrics and this site definitely falls into the former category clearly across what I have seen.
Rosstailm
Found this through a friend who recommended it and now I see why, and a look at trackingterminal only strengthened that recommendation in my own mind, word of mouth still works for content that actually delivers and this site is clearly earning recommendations the old fashioned way through quality rather than marketing.
MartinGon
Worth flagging that the writing rewarded a second read more than I expected, and a look at pebblecratemart produced the same second read benefit, content with hidden depths that emerge only on careful rereading is rare in the modern blog space and this site has clearly invested in that level of compositional density throughout.
MaxwellHat
If you asked me to point to a recent positive sign for the open web this site would be near the top, and a stop at woodlandvault reinforced that designation, the few sites that serve as evidence the web can still produce quality independent content are precious and this one has clearly become one for me.
Byronvox
Glad I stumbled across this post, the explanations actually make sense without needing background knowledge to follow along, and after a stop at cometcrate the same was true there, no assumptions about the reader just clear writing that anyone can understand from the first line right through to the end.
VaughnSNASH
A thoughtful read in a week that has been mostly noisy, and a look at lavendercrate carried that thoughtful quality across more pages, finding pockets of considered writing in a week of distractions is one of the small wins of careful curation and this site is providing those pockets at a sustainable rate.

However selective I am about new bookmarks this one made it past my filter, and a look at sunvendor 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.
Lonniemycle
Now thinking about this site as a small example of what good independent writing looks like, and a stop at shorelinesupply continued that exemplary status, the few sites that serve as good examples are sites worth holding up in conversations about quality and this one has earned that exemplary placement through patient consistent effort over time.
Dichaeleromo
You have managed to summarize a rather extensive amount of information into a highly clear format that keeps the reader engaged from the very first paragraph all the way down to your concluding thoughts today.

Picked up several practical tips that I plan to try out this week, and a look at flintvendorhouse added a few more I will be testing alongside, content with practical hooks that connect to my actual life is the kind that earns my repeat attention rather than the merely interesting that I forget within a day.
Stephenhat
Reading this gave me a small refresher on something I had partially forgotten, and a stop at woodmarket extended the refresher, content that strengthens existing knowledge rather than just adding new is content with a particular kind of consolidating value and this site is providing that consolidating function across multiple visits.
BrandonImift
Decided I would read the archives over the weekend, and a stop at saleandstyle 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.
Jamalcoike
Now wondering how the writers calibrated the level of detail so well, and a stop at marblevendor continued the same calibration, the right level of detail is one of the harder editorial calls in any piece and this site has clearly developed an instinct for it through what I assume is years of careful practice publicly.
Aidanfek
Came across this and immediately thought of a friend who would enjoy it, and a stop at mythicmint also reminded me of someone, content that triggers the urge to share is content that has earned my recommendation and this site has earned multiple from me already across different conversations during the week.
WilsonAnask
If patience for careful reading is rare these days finding sites that reward it is rarer still, and a stop at valleyvendor extended that rare reward, the diminishing returns on shallow content reading have made me more selective about where to spend reading time and this site is meeting the higher selectivity bar consistently.
WillisDip
Generally my comment to other readers about new sites is to wait and see but for this one I would jump to recommend now, and a look at awardatelier reinforced that early recommendation, the speed at which a site earns my recommendation is itself a quality signal and this one has earned mine quickly clearly.
Timmymek
Picked this site to mention to a colleague who would benefit, and a look at moonvendorcorner added more material I will pass along, recommending sites to colleagues is a higher bar than recommending to friends because the professional context demands more careful curation and this site cleared the professional bar without me having to think.
AlfredoNiree
Reading this with a fresh mind in the morning brought out details I might have missed in the afternoon, and a stop at zenvorax earned the same fresh attention, content that rewards being read at full attention rather than at energy lows is content with real density and this site has that density consistently.
Germanfoomy
Reading this in three sittings because the day was fragmented, and the piece survived the fragmentation, and a stop at mossvendorhouse 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.
Rauldaype
A clean piece that knew exactly what it wanted to say and said it, and a look at dyeandwash maintained the same clarity of intention, knowing the goal of a piece before writing is something most blog content lacks and the clarity of purpose here shows up in every paragraph for any careful reader to notice.
AveryLob
Good quality through and through, no rough edges and no signs of being rushed, and a quick look at dollyn kept the same polish going, the kind of site that respects its own brand by maintaining consistency across pages which is something I always appreciate as a reader looking for trustworthy information online today.
YaleInelp
Reading carefully here has reminded me what reading carefully feels like, and a look at xyloshop extended that reminder, the experience of careful reading versus skimming is different in ways I had partially forgotten and this site has clearly refreshed my memory of what attention feels like when content rewards it consistently.
CalebKew
Thank you for not assuming the reader already knows everything, the explanations meet me where I am, and a look at morningmoment 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.
Lawrenceanype
Solid little post, the kind that does not need to be flashy because the substance is doing the work, and a look at whimvendor kept that quiet confidence going across the site, this is what writing looks like when the writer trusts the content to land on its own without theatrics or unnecessary attention seeking behaviour.
Timsothytob
This serves as a fantastic starting point for anyone looking to get acquainted with the material. Your clear formatting ensures that the core points are immediately visible to all.

Granted my mood today might be elevating my reading experience but I still think this is genuinely good, and a stop at patchparlor reinforced that even discounted assessment, controlling for the mood adjustment that affects content perception this site still reads as substantively above average across multiple pieces I have read carefully today.
RandallArout
Glad to have another reliable bookmark for this topic, and a look at laptoplifeline suggested several more pages I will be marking too, building a personal library of trustworthy resources is one of the actual rewards of careful browsing and this site is earning a place on my permanent shortlist for the topic.
RoyDab
Generally I bookmark sparingly to avoid building up a bookmark graveyard but this one earned a permanent slot, and a stop at jadecrate extended that permanence designation, the few sites I keep permanent bookmarks for are sites I expect to use repeatedly and this one has clearly cleared that expectation bar today.
Coreykek
Top tier post, the kind that makes you want to share the link with friends working in the same area, and a stop at springvendor only made me more confident in doing that, this site is one of the better resources I have seen on the topic recently across both new and older posts.
EverettMuh
Reading this back to back with a similar piece elsewhere made the quality difference obvious, and a stop at oceancrate 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.
RussellSmoth
Probably worth setting aside a longer block to read more carefully than I can right now, and a stop at dailuno confirmed the longer block plan, the impulse to schedule dedicated time for a sites archive is itself a measure of trust and this site has earned that scheduling impulse from me clearly today actually.
MarkdiblY
Decided not to skim despite my usual habit and was rewarded for the discipline, and a stop at glenvox 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.
DominicSlops
Closed and reopened the tab three times before finally finishing, and a stop at wheatwarehouse held my attention straight through, sometimes content fights for time against my own distraction and the times it wins say something positive about its quality and this post clearly won that fight today afternoon for me.
HarryOxIse
Honestly this was the highlight of my reading queue today, and a look at cardcraftshop extended that across more pages I will return to, ranking what I read against what else I read each day is something I do informally and this site keeps moving up in those rankings the more I explore it.
IsaacElexy
Worth pointing out that the writer made the topic feel more interesting than I had been expecting, and a look at farniq continued that elevation effect, content that improves the apparent quality of its subject through skilled treatment is doing something real and this site has clearly developed that kind of editorial alchemy throughout.
JerryPoomi
A satisfying piece in the way that good meals are satisfying rather than just filling, and a look at uplandvendor extended that satisfaction, the metaphor between content and meals is one I find useful and this site reads as a satisfying meal rather than the empty calories that most content provides for casual readers.
RoccoLeany
Thanks for the honest framing without exaggerated claims that the topic will change my life, and a stop at mythmarket kept the same modest tone, restraint in marketing language signals trustworthiness and the writers here are clearly playing the long game by building credibility rather than chasing immediate clicks through hyperbole.
Roccotug
During a reading session that included several other sources this one stood out, and a look at rainvendor continued the standout quality, the side by side comparison of sources during research is a useful exercise and this site has been winning those comparisons for me consistently across multiple research sessions during the last week.
Hectorelado
Beyond the immediate post itself the editorial sensibility behind the site is what struck me, and a stop at lanternvendoroutlet continued displaying that sensibility, content that reveals editorial choices through accumulated reading is content with structural quality and this site has clearly developed an underlying approach worth identifying through multiple sessions of reading.
MarlonDig
Loved the writing voice here, friendly without being fake and confident without being arrogant, and a stop at tillora carried the same tone forward, the kind of personality that makes a reader feel welcome rather than lectured at which is a balance plenty of writers struggle to find no matter how long they have been at it.
Emersonglorm
Speaking from the perspective of a fairly demanding reader the writing here clears the bar consistently, and a look at squatstand continued clearing that bar, the calibration of demanding reader is something I apply to all sources and this site has been one of the few that handles the demanding reading well across pieces sampled.
Lioneleroky
Liked how the post handled an objection I was forming as I read, and a stop at leadlantern similarly anticipated where my thinking was going next, the rare writer who can predict reader concerns and address them in advance is doing something most online content fails to do despite that being basic editorial work.
Jakegeano
Refreshing to read something where the words actually mean something instead of filling space, and a stop at priceprism kept that going, the writing here trusts the reader to follow along without endless repetition or constant reminders of what was already said earlier in the post which I appreciate.
BartAbsow
Quietly enthusiastic about this site after the past few hours of reading, and a stop at daisycargo extended that enthusiasm, the calibration of enthusiasm to evidence is something I try to maintain and this site has earned a calibrated quiet enthusiasm rather than the loud excitement that usually fades within a day or two of finding something.
DavonImmum
Skipped lunch to finish reading, which says something, and a stop at elvorax kept me at my desk longer than planned, when content beats the lunch impulse the writer has done something genuinely impressive in an attention environment full of immediately satisfying alternatives competing for the same finite block of reader time.
AlfredoutinD
Now setting up a small reminder to revisit the site on a slow day, and a stop at karachikart confirmed the reminder was a good idea, planning return visits is a small organisational act that signals trust in ongoing quality and this site has earned that planned return through consistent performance across the pieces I have read so far.
SkylarAvema
Granted I am giving this site more credit than I usually give new finds, and a look at vionessa continued earning that credit, the calibration of how much trust to extend after limited exposure is something I do carefully and this site has earned more trust on shorter exposure than most due to consistent quality across.
Maxwellloure
Speaking carefully because I do not want to overstate things this site is genuinely above average across multiple measurements, and a stop at colorcraftshop continued the above average performance, the calibration of judgement against potential overstatement is something I take seriously and this site clears the higher bar even after that calibration applies.
