AI Overview:
India's garbage problem is a severe issue affecting both people and the environment, characterized by massive landfills, widespread pollution, and health crises for those who live or work near the waste. Millions of people, including children, work as waste pickers, sorting through trash for income in hazardous conditions, while residents in nearby areas suffer from toxic air and water contamination. The sheer volume of waste leads to mountains of garbage, which can cause fires, collapse, and release potent greenhouse gases.
And Al Gore wants you to sort your waste... Turn off your lights... And stop flying in planes. Go figure.
