India's landfills overflow as daily waste crosses 1.5 lakh tonnes
India produces over 150,000 tonnes of waste every day, and majority ends up in overflowing landfills. A significant portion is burned, releasing toxic gases, while some reaches rivers and oceans, damaging ecosystems. Authorities are pushing for segregation, composting, and recycling, but gaps remain. Experts urge citizens to reduce and responsibly dispose of waste before cities are overwhelmed.
