For both industrialists and environmentalists, the disposal of waste can be seen as an increasingly problematic issue, because of two major factors. In the first place, increasing industrialisation as a
result of the growth in both technical development and consumerism has meant that much greater quantities of waste are being generated, and in many cases the technology which underpins facilities
for disposal has not tended to keep pace with this increase. This can be seen in many ways as a global, as well as a local issue. Richer industrialised nations
have tended, for instance, to utilise the facilities available in poorer countries for the greater part of waste disposal, which has in itself led to criticism on an international level
both of the principle and the way in which it is executed.
Poorer nations tend not to be in possession of the most efficient technology, and therefore the problems of inadequate disposal and pollution are not
eliminated, merely moved from one geographical area to another. In the meantime, the need for transporting waste long distances in order to dispose of it has inherent dangers due to
the possibility of accidental spillage, inadequate transport systems, and so on. At a local level, even those regions which attempt to maintain their own waste disposal systems are tending to
discover that disposal does not necessarily keep pace with production, and since this is a comparatively recent problem which has come about as a result of increased manufacturing, there are
no pre-existing remedies or solutions which can be drawn on. It could be asserted that the wheel is coming full cycle with the increased focus on sustainability and the ecologically
