CHAPTER 1
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
This chapter includes the introduction, conceptual framework, statement
of the problem, hypothesis/assumption of the study, scope and limitation of the
study, significance of the study, and definition of terms.
INTRODUCTION
Proper waste disposal is known as the removal and disposing of unwanted
things or materials known as waste. Waste disposal can be done in various forms like
recycling, discarding, and destroying materials that are not further use at the campus
of Alhadeetha Mindanao College.
Alhadeetha Mindanao College, like many educational institutions, faces
challenges in managing its waste. Improper waste disposal can harm the environment,
contaminating water sources, soil, and air, and negatively impact campus health,
leading to diseases and discomfort. Proper waste disposal practices are crucial for
maintaining a healthy environment and campus community.
Waste management is one of the most important environmental protection
strategies specially in mental health of the people inside the campus. By properly
disposing of waste, we can greatly reduce the number of harmful chemicals and
pollutants that enter our water, air, and soil. The main benefits of waste management
are to reduce pollution, conserve resources, and prevent damage to ecosystems. This
not only protects human health but also helps to preserve wildlife and habitats. (Kristy
Sumich, 2022).
According to (US Law-Solid Waste Act 2, 1999). The term "solid waste'' means any
garbage, refuse, or sludge from a waste treatment plant, water supply treatment plant,
or air pollution control facility and other discarded material, including solid, liquid,
semisolid, or contained gaseous material resulting from industrial, commercial,
mining, and agricultural operations. While the ''disposal'' means the discharge,
deposit,
injection, dumping, spilling, leaking, or placing of any solid waste or hazardous waste
into or on any land or water so that such solid wastes, hazardous wastes, or any
constituent there of may enter the environment or be emitted into the air or discharged
into any waters, including ground waters, from community activities.
The main purpose of this study is to persuade students not to toss rubbish
anywhere and to dispose of it properly. Also, it will teach them how to properly their
waste, as well as how throwing waste wherever would harm the ecosystem, including
animals, plants, and our entire planet. The goal of this study is to teach students how
to distinguish between biodegradable and non-biodegradable garbage.

Conducted.
A conceptual framework illustrates the expected relationship between your variables. It defines the
relevant objectives for your research process and maps out how they come together to draw coherent
conclusions (Bas Swaen, 2024.) A conceptual framework is a representation of the relationship you
expect to see between your variables, or the characteristics or properties that you want to study.
Conceptual frameworks can be written or visual and are generally developed based on a literature review
of existing studies about your topic (Tegan George, 2024).
The primary goal of this research is to inform students and staff for why they need to emphasize the
right of Evaluating the Impact of Proper Waste Disposal Practice on the Environmental and Campus
Health at Alhadeetha Mindanao College.
