Abstract :
Environment conservation is the common concern at all levels from local to global.
Most of the recent environment problems and ill effects stem from ecological misappropriation and
neglect to recognize the limits of ecosystem, its. Rapid population growth, low income, lowest
health facilities, poor sanitation, lack of education. Personal and community hygiene poverty has
enhanced the incidence percentage of parasite infections. This situation is further worsened due to
ignorance about the hazard of parasite infection. In order to minimize the risk factors, Municipal
Corporation has taken some bold steps. In order to develop an integrated system for solid waste
management, the Municipal Corporation has divided the Lahore city (Pakistan) into six towns. For
each of these a decisional model is applied so as to define the composition and amount of solid
waste flows to be collected and diverted to the dumping sites.
