Scavengers and Their Role in the Recycling of Waste in Southwestern LahoreResources, Conservation and Recycling
This study deals with the scavengers and their role in the recycling of waste in southern Lahore. The estimated total amount of recyclable material recovered by all the scavengers working in the area is about 525 tons per month, which generates an income of $30,875 per month. Despite their low economic and social status, scavengers are making important environmental and economic contributions. Scavengers not only reduce the waste but also supply secondary materials to the recycling industry and save the SWM industry expenditures of sweeping, transporting, and disposing of waste. The overall impact of scavenger activities is positive economically and environmentally.
