Waste: The solid waste generated in Baghdad fluctuates extremely according to the economic status, seasons, climate and municipal services.
Baghdadis are producing now more waste with each passing
year..
![Page 14: My home town rasha salah ahmed p64799](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103014/54b9f6934a7959e7638b45ad/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Over the past 30 years, the waste produced in this country has more than five times. From 0.388 million tons in 1978 to about 2.126 million tons in 2005. Some of this increase is linked to Baghdad population growth.
![Page 15: My home town rasha salah ahmed p64799](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103014/54b9f6934a7959e7638b45ad/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Baghdadis are generating waste products faster than nature can break themdown and using up resources faster than they can be replaced. This adds up to bigtrouble for the environment.

Transport:
Transportation was one of the Iraqi economy's most active sectors in the late 1980s; it was allocated a large share of the domestic development budget because it was important to the government for several reasons. Logistics became a crucial factor in Iraq's conduct of the Iran-Iraq War. The government also recognized that transportation bottlenecks limited industrial development more than any other factor.

the government embarked on an ambitious plan to upgrade and to extend road, rail, air, and river transport simultaneously.
