An integrated planning and capacity building is required backed by financial support to control the situation. Life cycle assessment, categorisation, recycling and reduction in all types of wastes and proper landfilling are required. Resumen: Una eficacia baja en la recolección de los residuos y limitaciones financieras, junto con una planeación pobre y una carencia de estudios sobre las complejidades cambiantes de los desechos municipales, condujeron al empeoramiento del problema relacionado con los residuos sólidos municipales, lo cual opaca la meta de manejar de forma sostenible los residuos sólidos municipales (MSW, siglas en inglés). Para controlar la situación se requiere hacer una planeación integrada y construir capacidades, con suficiente apoyo financiero. Asimismo, hace falta evaluar el ciclo de vida, categorizar, reciclar y reducir todo los tipos de desechos y hacer rellenos sanitarios adecuados. Resumo: A baixa eficiência narecolha de resíduos e as restrições financeiras, juntamente com o mau planeamento ea falta de estudo sobre as mudanças na complexidade dos resíduos urbanos contribuíram para o agravamento dos problemas relacionados com os resíduos sólidos urbanos ede que resulta na indefiniçãodo objectivo da gestão sustentável dos resíduos sólidos urbanos (RSU).
