| The impacts of soil waste issues extend beyond ecological systems and directly threaten public health in nearby communities. Residents living close to the landfill are chronically exposed to foul odors, pest infestations, air pollution, and contaminated surface water and **[[08|groundwater]]**, increasing the risk of respiratory, dermatological, gastrointestinal, and visual health problems (World Bank, 2010). This highlights the close relationship between soil waste management, environmental justice, and urban health. | The impacts of soil waste issues extend beyond ecological systems and directly threaten public health in nearby communities.
