[edit] Threat: Garbage & Solid Waste

[edit] Definition

Rubbish and other solid materials including those that entangle wildlife. Examples include municipal waste, litter from cars, flotsam & jetsam from recreational boats, waste that entangles wildlife, and construction debris.

This category generally is for solid waste outside of designated landfills - landfills themselves should go in Commercial & Industrial Areas. Likewise, toxins leaching from solid waste - for example, mercury leaking out of a landfill into groundwater - should go in Industrial & Military Effluents. (CMP)
