Question

Give two detailed arguments for illegal dumping ( at least 150 words )

Answer 1

Higher levels of total waste production are distinctly correlated with higher rates of illegal waste dumping and an increasing number of illegal dumping spots. The growth in total waste generation is tandem with income, rapid tastes change and the ever-increasing population worldwide. Moreover, people are becoming ever more consumer-oriented than the past.

Previously, people depended on new and creative ways to use old stuff, but in the contemporary world the majority of people are in search for new and better products especially home appliances, clothes and electronics. The throwing out of old devices and used home appliances has thus lead to the increase of illegal waste dumping.

Cases of residents in different parts of the world who themselves dispose of waste are on the rise. This habit is linked to avoiding the payment of disposal fees at waste management sites. The people involved in such acts think the prevailing waste collection fees are exorbitant. Thus, instead of following the rightful waste disposal channels or paying for third party waste pick-up services, they illegally dispose of the waste in remote locations.
