Today, waste management is becoming increasingly important in terms of environmental sustainability and economic efficiency. Increasing population, industrialization and changes in consumption habits necessitate the development of new approaches in the field of waste management and the rethinking of existing systems. In this context, innovations and innovative approaches in waste management from past to present play a critical role in the transformation of waste management. Developments around the world encourage the adoption of innovative solutions and approaches in waste management. In particular, concepts such as zero waste targets, circular economy principles and waste reduction strategies are gaining more importance in international platforms and in the domestic policies of countries. In addition, technological advances offer more efficient and effective solutions in waste management. Developments in smart sensors, automatic classification systems and recycling technologies make it possible to manage waste more effectively.In this context, these developments in the field of waste management worldwide are an important driving force for the further development and implementation of waste management strategies and policies. In this study, innovative approaches in waste management from past to present are discussed, and it aims to be an important resource for understanding the effects of global developments on waste management ...
Some practices such as fertilisation and pesticide use are carried out in order to obtain high yields in agricultural production. However, as a result of these practices, agricultural pollutants may occur as a result of incorrect agricultural practices. Problems such as water pollution, air pollution, soil pollution, nutrient imbalance, salination in soils, eutrophication in waters, beneficial microorganisms in soils and damage to human and animal health occur due to faulty fertilisation and pesticide applications, misuse of agricultural soils, and inaccuracies in the disposal of plastic wastes. In this study, the literature on agricultural polluting factors was examined and it was aimed to raise awareness about agricultural pollution by explaining the harms of agricultural polluting factors to the environment and the health of living beings and by trying to offer solutions. Within the scope of this targeted awareness, this study; It is aimed to raise the awareness of producers in future production processes and to provide a stepping stone for scientific studies on this subject. ...
In Turkey, the renewable water potential per capita is rapidly decreasing in response to the increasing population. Of the 234 billion m³ renewable water potential of our country, 41 billion m³ consists of groundwater and 193 billion m³ consists of rivers. One of the measures to be taken in order to protect renewable water resources in our country, which is not rich in water, is to try to minimize the damage to ground and surface waters caused by solid and liquid wastes that occur in animal shelters. This damage occurs especially with the washing of negatively charged nitrate in the fertilizer content by factors such as precipitation and the increase in the nitrate level of water resources. For the prevention and reduction of environmental problems arising from the said polycultural enterprises; Ecological evaluation of the transition to sustainable farming methods is one of the elements of urgency for the ecological sustainability of animal husbandry. In this study; the definition, scope and briefly the principles of sustainable agricultural methods for the management of nitrate pollution, which is one of the most important parameters that cause water pollution from agricultural production, are emphasized, the reasons for the transition to sustainable agricultural methods ...
