Risk evaluation in waste dumps
The society as a whole is increasingly concerned with the current and future environmental conditions. Not surprising, the aspects that analyze the environmental reality are included among the usual life quality indicators. Human activities generate impacts. The magnitude of these impacts on the environment has increased due to several factors, the most significant of them are the population growth, unevenly scattered throughout the territory and the technological advances characterized by unsustainable production and consumption standards. These widely disseminated factors in Latin America are associated with a regional framework in which strategic planning is not a part of the public administration culture. In this context, waste dumps are a symbol of disregard that represents the lack of planning, the discontinued management and the inadequate allocation of resources relative to solid wastes. This paper proposes a methodology that outlines the gradual application of these resources, but at the same time, maintains the consistent improvement of this scenario.
