Els països en vies de desenvolupament, en general, no tenen sistemes de gestió de residus sòlids municipals sostenibles. Solen adoptar solucions de gestió de residus com a protocols de països desenvolupats sense una adequada adaptació, deixant enrere el context de la seva situació i assumint per endavant que els resultats obtinguts localment seran equivalents als obtinguts als països desenvolupats que els donen aquests protocols. [...]
Developing countries in general, lack sustainable municipal solid waste management systems in place. They tend to adopt waste management solutions as protocols from developed countries without proper adaptation while leaving behind the context of their situation and assuming beforehand that the results obtained locally will be equivalent to those obtained in developed countries granting these protocols.
