A more thorough explanation: In legal terms, “waste” refers to the destruction, misuse, or neglect of property by an individual who holds a legal interest in that property, to the detriment of another party’s interest in the same property. This concept is often used in property law to describe actions that result in a decrease in the value of the property or its potential use.
Example: Improper disposal of hazardous waste can result in fines and legal action.
