This research examined the possibility of monetizing wastes in Delta and Bayelsa States, Nigeria. The study mirrored the waste management approaches hitherto and therefrom initiated strategies that can be implemented to transform waste into valuable resources while promoting environmental sustainability and economic growth. The study adopted the cross-sectional research design. The Taro Yamane equation was used to determine a study population of 400 respondents. The spearman’s rank correlation coefficient was deployed to test the perception of waste monetization in Delta and Bayelsa States. Findings indicated that the locals knew very little about waste monetization. Albeit, they identified that they will be willing to participate in the process if initiated. The perceptions in both States were not significantly different at p>0.05. The findings highlighted the importance of adopting innovative waste management practices to harness the untapped potential of wastes in Delta and Bayelsa States.

Conventional Fertilizer Practice (CFP) has degraded the soil in lowland inducing acidification and yield decreasing (50-75%) after long term continues rice cropping. Phosphorus (P) application was suspected as main remediation factor.

Climate change has made the people of Bangladesh vulnerable environmentally, culturally, and socially. The northern areas of the country have also been affected by climate change and different types of climatic impacts like floods, changes in seasonal pattern and effects on agricultural products have been visible in recent times.

Community-based waste management (CBWM) is a waste decentralization approach that carries the potential to divert about two-thirds of household solid waste (HSW) from landfills. Although many studies have suggested this approach to waste management in the city, assessment studies to quantify its material recovery potential are yet to be conducted. This is the gap this study thus aimed to fill.
