Abstract

Population growth, industrialization andcapitalism has led to consumerist human behavior and an unprecedented use of disposable objects. The rate of the object consumption is directly proportional to the alarming urbanized growth and in our economy, even though, the patterns ofproduction, consumption and waste management are global but the effects are localized. The amount of'waste' produced results in the excessive overcrowding ofalready present landfill sites, in the urban fabric of Lahore, primarily because of decrease in the pro environment behavior caused by the gap between production and consumption. These observations require an alternate system in which 'waste' is re-used, re-cycled through a process visible to the public in order to advocate awareness
