World Cleanup Day 2024 | India

World Cleanup Day 2024 | India

The world generates over 2 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste annually, of which almost half is mismanaged . Mismanaged waste, which is neither collected nor managed in controlled facilities, negatively impacts human health and contributes to worsening the triple planetary crisis: climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution.

Meanwhile, approximately 2.7 billion people globally lack access to basic collection services, and, without immediate action, waste generation is on track to increase to 3.8 billion tonnes by 2050 .

To achieve a sustainable and waste-free future, it is essential to prevent waste generation and to manage existing waste.

Over the years, many national, regional and local governments and communities have been undertaking clean-up activities globally.

World Cleanup Day represents the reflection on their achievements. The clean-ups serve as a reminder of the collective responsibility we share in preserving and maintaining a clean and healthy environment as well as sustainable waste and resources management. Some of the initiatives can be seen below;


  • World Cleanup Day provides a powerful platform to raise awareness about the millions of tons of mismanaged waste globally.
  • By mobilizing cities worldwide to clean up litter and waste, we can make immediate strides in mitigating the impact of waste on our environment.
  • This global initiative complements the Zero Waste movement by addressing present waste and inspiring action to reduce future waste generation.
