Poor waste management  damages the earth ecosystems and reduces the quality of life. Waste contamination with air, soil and water causes  polluted environment. Every year large amounts of waste enter the environment, where it slowly decomposes and accumulates in fatal zones. For example aquatic organisms have suffered severely from the anthropogenic activities. Plastics waste, toxic substances from petrochemicals, electronic items and heavy metals end up in streams, causing damage to marine life.
