        abstract = {Rapid urbanization in India has intensified environmental challenges, including solid waste generation, resource depletion, pollution, and climate-related concerns. Environmental Economics provides a framework for understanding the interaction between economic growth and environmental sustainability. Coimbatore, one of Tamil Nadu's fastest-growing urban centers, offers valuable insights into urban environmental management due to its industrial development, population growth, and evolving waste management systems. This review paper examines the environmental-economic dimensions of Coimbatore City, focusing on municipal solid waste management, environmental sustainability, and policy interventions. The study highlights the costs and benefits associated with environmental management and discusses strategies for achieving sustainable urban development.},
