Litter and waste effect the environment in several ways.
Certain materials aren't easily biodegradable. Most plastics could take up to two hundred years to dissolve. This makes landfills uninhabitable for most plant species.
Also; certain materials release toxic chemicals as they degrade, which can effect the health of any living creatures dwelling in the area long term. For example, if a residential house is built over what was once a landfill; inhabitants may suffer health problems for no apparent reason.
