In doing so, it can help maintain a clean environment, protect health, and achieve better environmental sustainability. The role of the younger generation is also very important in waste management. They are strong agents of change in encouraging positive changes to environmental problems, including waste management to create a more sustainable future. By taking action now, they can inspire and guide the next generation to have a greater awareness of the need to protect the environment and manage waste wisely.
