PUBLISHED AND WE GOT IT OPEN ACCESS (FOR FREE)!

PUBLISHED AND WE GOT IT OPEN ACCESS (FOR FREE)!

Successfully published our research paper in volume 41 for the third edition this year (2023). The interesting part of our study this time is we observe the habits of litter in the community. Quite surprised with the amount of litter we collected within our research area. With the help of geospatial analysis techniques, we can see trends. 

However, research is only an instrument for studying the effects of this waste. But the most important thing is the attitude to keep our place clean. Please don’t litter everywhere, guys. We talk about the SDGs, the Sustainable City, the Green Life, etc., but it is useless if there is no right “litter” attitude. It all starts with you (and me).

Title: Within cluster pattern identification: A new approach for optimizing recycle point distribution to support policy implementation on waste management in Malaysia.
