The Importance of Waste Management


Respected business leader Louis Paolino Jr. has held executive positions at companies based in Florida, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Throughout much of his career, Louis Paolino Jr. has worked for waste management companies, including Eastern Environmental Services and USA Waste Services.

In the past, people disposed of waste by burning it or burying it, but these methods of waste disposal have become unsustainable. Further, much of the waste currently produced is not biodegradable and can damage the environment. 

For these reasons, waste management has become important for maintaining good environmental and social health. Waste management companies are responsible for disposing of garbage in environmentally friendly ways, which include the recycling of glass, plastic, and paper products. 

Recycling reduces strain on the earth’s natural resources. For example, instead of cutting down more trees to produce grocery bags, old bags and other paper products can be recycled to make new grocery bags.
