How Singapore fixed its big trash problem | CNBC Reports

How about we dig 10,000 feet holes in each city and throw trash in them which they burn and don’t stay on the surface.

Blanket plastic ban.
Only recycled plastic permissible

Singapore has a plant burning 200 full truck loads of waste a day. That's about $90,000 in free energy a day. Plus whatever they can sell from the ashes. $36 million a year. I estimate it saves Singapore $2 billion every 30 years.

Các bãi rác có thể gắn kết đủ cứng cáp để làm 1 hòn đảo không?

This should be what California should follow, not a train to nowhere and unsustainable electric cars and woke educational system. Singapore also has law and discipline which makes illegal drugs, corruption and dirty streets almost impossible but which California version is laughable.

Living in the orient…..I was sooooo surprised how much plastic, especially water bottles, are used. The dumps are gross and stink, and what isn’t in the dump, is in the ocean….😞😞

Can we know how is it very effective

Kung hindi ito Ophir, bakit hinanap ni Columbus at Magellan base sa bibliya, Esdras 2? Bakit naghakot ng ginto ang España nang 300 taon papunta sa Mexico? Bakit mga pirata ng Caribbean inagaw ang ginto papuntang España? Bakit inagaw ng US ang Ophir sa España? Bakit naghakot ang Japan ng ginto dito? Bakit mga barko ni Solomon naglalayag nang 3 taon para bumili ng ginto sa Ophir? Ayaw ninyo pang maniwala kay Pigafetta at sa bibliya? Burado na nga sa isipan natin ang alam nila Rizal, Paterno, atbp. Gumising sa katotohanan!

How much fuel is used to transport the different levels of waste to various outlets to and from processing and how much does it cost to burn the waste? How deep underneath the waste ash lakes do the rubber liners go?

Amazing utilisation of resources 👏

Singapore sent trashes to other countries by containers with fault address for years. Only a few was incinerated as they said. Liar...

Better to make building material using ash instead of offshore landfill

They say work for the credit card company for discounts, they're lying like to their poor parents

Its an ad 😂

When you keep DOING S.O.S. YOU GET S.O.S., WE MUST CONTROL IT,STOP MAKING ITEMS WE CANT EASLY DESPOSE OF,HAVE PLANTS THAT CAN BURN IT INCENERATE IT AND THEN BURRY SOMIT CAN DECOMPOSE NATURALLY,

Throwing through car window.

Trash-to-power-incineration isn’t the BEST way to deal with the waste… However, it’s definitely the most PRACTICAL solution that makes the most sense for their situation.

True Facts: Singapore (and many countries) simply burn those trash that can be burnt and bury the rest that can't in landfills. Both "solutions" accelerate climate change and cause an environmental disaster decades down the road. We're essentially killing current generations now with the burning and killing the next few generations decades later when those unpleasant landfills erupt ...

How do they burn garbage in incinerators? with gas, oil? What is the ratio between the energy supplied and the energy obtained? thank you for your answers

Incineration is not really the solution

Burning trash for energy is so obvious it hurts, and there is even big money in it. In the Scandinavian countries, this simple equation has made household trash a sellable commodity that is being traded across borders. Also, it's clean and healthy compared to any other solution, landfills being the worst option. Where are the US politicians???

y podrian decirme quien es el verdadero culpable de toda esa "basura"?

Om Shanthi to passed away ancestral lineage of all men, women, kids of Singapore.

Unprofessional standards using childish cartoon sounds.. SSSSSSWWWWWWWIIIIIISSSSSSHHHH / ZZZZZAAAAAAAPPPP to the dislike button.

I don't agree with Mrs. Kremena Lonkova at one point. She said, waste management should not generate revenue. I believe it should. That's what Singapore is doing. They are generating electricity. they are trying to use the ashes for other products like concrete and other things. Those are revenue-generating strategies. In fact, I believe that should be the case. Because that is what nature is doing. Our wastes are basically the organic nutrients for plants like urea, stools, etc. The waste products of plants like resin, and oxygen are revenue for animals and humans. So, basically, a sustainable system can be developed if we as humans can completely recycle or reuse all our waste and in the process, generate more revenue for people to live.

“Affordability gap” such a ridiculous concept.
This should not exist. This is the literal admission that the environmental crisis is caused by the greed of the wealthy.

waste management

Almost there - hopefully until we finish the first phase (roads, infrastructure,…).

Yeah yeah

i thought they were recycleing but their jus burning it and orderly keeping waste clean. When u burn trash and not recycle the discharge of ash will be thrown into air witch eventually will damage the ozone layer witch infact as a developed counrty they aren't doing that much about

Burning is not solution, CO°<2BYPRODUCT of incineration
DUCT

In the world of advanced science & technology, this is one of the most incredible discoveries.
This is a big win!!!
We would love to add your video to one of our playlists to inspire climate solutions.

As long as China does not meddle , but they can't help themselves

This is the cleanest waste incinerations plant I have ever seen. The dumping landfill is so beautiful. It should be a tourist attraction site.

Atlanta Georgia needs that in their City ASAP!!!!!!

Plastic is the bain of waste recycling. But the developed countries corporate profit is more important than the environment. This must change.

Iceland has the best solution to waste management processing. This includes both physical process and legal restrictions. Why does the US constantly try to undo the laws involved in their system? Corporate profit.

They aren't doing it cuz they wanted to cuz they have NO CHOICE. The result of not doing it is the total destruction and that applies to ANY small country. Look at Haiti, the ENTIRE country is basically a dumpster cuz corruption is the country's way of life. The first business MUST be law & order because without it, there's no cleaning environment.

Garfield cty Oklahoma the biggest hill is the land fill

Singapore didn't solve it's trash problem, it created double revenue for the government, revenue for disposal,from that they collect recyclables from trash, then incinerate for power generation, sold back to the people, ash made into bricks and caustic ash again sold but all of this burning is killing earth, C02 !

I wonder how this method will work in countries like India. In Delhi alone the population is close to 33 million. That means Delhi will need about 5-6 of these waste disposal plants assuming that per 5 million people in Delhi produce thesame volume of waste

Without watching the video, I already know they give it to Malaysia

Singapore is the best run country in the world. Period. Low taxes, efficient, safe, clean. Makes australia look like la total sewer.

The world could learn the waste management from Singapore from their efficient system

You can go on a tour of the island.

I wish i was born in Singapore what a country. Hats off to them great approach
