what are the factors that we need to consider if we want to establish a MSW management form. Table 1: Solid waste chemical composition (El-Fadel, Findikakis, & Leckie, 1997).

Statement of the Problem
discusses the critical issues in waste management for a large, luxury brand spa. It explains the need for analysis of a team effort to successfully implement strategies for reducing the carbon footprint. The problem appears to be a lack of communication and resources amongst the management and staff. The importance of waste management can relate directly to revenue in several ways including how supplies are utilized, reusing or selling unused equipment, and decreasing waste to reduce disposal costs. Solutions
Company’s new products, the Company will conduct market research oriented to the new products primary stakeholders. This consists of local governments, apartment/condo dwellers, and multi-dwelling building management. Three different research methods to be utilized in this analysis: • Review of solid waste and government plans for large metropolitan areas in the US and Canada with a large percentage of high-density residential dwellings.

Wastewater can come from a variety of sources like homes, businesses, industries, runoff from roads, lawns and fields and is treated by municipal wastewater treatment facilities (Product, cornell). The solid material that remains after the treatment of wastewater is known as sludge (charac, cornell).

unregulated and companies dumped their products where they chose. This problem has built up into waste dumps that no one knows what to do with (Schou 2). Papua New Guinea was the victim of a California firm promising hopes “to build a $38 million detoxification plant to process 600,000 metric tons of toxic waste a month” (Lewis and Chepesiuk 2). This was a scam because the majority of the waste was shipped before the plant was built with promises that it would be built in the near future. Also
Roger Simons, MCI Group's sustainability manager said “recycle, reuse and reduce” definitely delivers savings for companies (Ledger, 2013). Another example of the Holiday Inn One King in Toronto shows that the cost reduction by implementing CSR structures is possible and realistic. The Holiday Inn One King in Toronto noted a saving of Canadian $14,852, about £8810, annually by “the installation of low flow showerheads and faucet aerators”.
