Waste Aversion
Waste aversion involves proactive efforts to prevent the generation of waste by employing strategies that prioritize reduction, reuse, recycling, and responsible consumption. This approach aims to minimize the amount of waste entering the waste stream, thereby reducing the environmental impact, conserving resources, and promoting sustainability. Waste aversion focuses on both individual actions, like choosing products with minimal packaging, and systemic changes, such as adopting circular economy practices that prioritize durability and extended product lifecycles. It represents a fundamental shift toward more mindful and responsible behaviors to minimize waste production and its associated consequences.

Waste management practices encompass a range of activities, including waste reduction, recycling, composting, and proper disposal in landfills or through waste-to-energy processes. The goal of waste management is to efficiently handle waste materials while minimizing their negative effects on the environment, public health, and overall quality of life. It also involves promoting sustainable practices to reduce waste generation, conserve resources, and promote the well-being of both current and future generations.

Zero waste
The goal of maximizing the diversion of waste from landfills, and minimize waste as much as possible. This concept seeks to reduce waste at the source instead of further downstream.
