To safeguard the health of the environment is a need of the hour. It will make the earth more sustainable for generations to come. Waste into Wealth is an apt approach towards optimum utilization of natural resources. Around the world, with industrialization and urbanization on the rise, the quantity of waste is increasing enormously. The composition of waste is also becoming more diversified. In many places, particularly in India, waste is being burnt or dumped, thus producing hazardous smoke or leeching into the soil and water. Implementing waste management schemes may involve mobilizing entire communities around the waste-issue. Innovative ideas on recycling waste are needed to make the earth green and sustainable, while offering simple solutions to turn waste into wealth. Internet of Things (IoT) is a worthy technology that can be used for these purposes. A waste management system based on synergy between IoT, Cloud Computing (CC) and Big Data Analytics (BDA) is proposed in this paper.
