Abstract

Environment conservation is the common concern at all levels from local to global. Most of the recent environment problems and ill effects stem from ecological misappropriation and neglect to recognize the limits of ecosystem, its. Rapid population growth, low income, lowest health facilities, poor sanitation, lack of education. Personal and community hygiene poverty has enhanced the incidence percentage of parasite infections. This situation is further worsened due to ignorance about the hazard of parasite infection. In order to minimize the risk factors, Municipal Corporation has taken some bold steps. In order to develop an integrated system for solid waste management, the Municipal Corporation has divided the Lahore city (Pakistan) into six towns. For each of these a decisional model is applied so as to define the composition and amount of solid waste flows to be collected and diverted to the dumping sites.
