Everything that results from our domestic, commercial, industrial and hospital activities and is no longer used receives the generic title of garbage. Although defined as dirt, filth, useless, old, worthless things, not everything that looks like garbage needs to be thrown away.
The best alternative for reducing waste is to reduce consumption: if we buy less, industries produce less and the result of all this is… Less waste, too!
In Brazil, there are agreements and laws for the correct disposal of different types of garbage, but in some cities, garbage is still deposited in the open. We are talking about dumps, that is, the dumping of large amounts of all types of waste, without any treatment, onto the ground.
