What are the advantages and disadvantages of waste disposal?

In: Health, Food & Cooking, Waste and Recycling [Edit categories]

Answer:

There are many forms of waste disposal, but if you mean all waste disposal in general, the advantages are that we aren't swimming in our own garbage. The disadvantages are that we could one day be swimming in our own garbage. People generate much too much waste and if our processes to handle it don't change or our habits that create it don't improve, we won't be able to keep our waste removed from our lives.
