Popis: The Arctic region presents a unique challenge for waste management due to extreme weather conditions and fragile ecosystems. This paper looks at modern IT solutions that can contribute to sustainable and efficient household garbage disposal in the Arctic. We discuss the introduction of smart bins, remote monitoring systems, geographic information systems (GIS) and blockchain technology to optimize waste collection, transport and disposal processes. The integration of modern IT solutions for waste management in the Arctic region offers a promising approach to address the challenges posed by extreme weather conditions and delicate ecosystems. Smart bins equipped with sensors and IoT technology can accurately monitor waste levels and optimize collection routes, reducing unnecessary transportation and minimizing environmental impact. Remote monitoring systems enable real-time tracking of waste disposal activities, ensuring timely interventions and efficient resource allocation. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) play a crucial role in mapping out optimal disposal sites and identifying areas of high waste generation, enabling authorities to plan strategically for waste management. Blockchain technology offers a secure and transparent platform for tracking waste from collection to disposal, enhancing accountability and fostering a circular economy approach. By leveraging these IT solutions, sustainable and efficient household garbage disposal practices can be implemented in the Arctic, safeguarding the pristine environment for future generations.
