Abstract: This study is part of the waste management domain and refers to the involvement of the citizens in the waste management issue. It aims to prove that, despite that although don’t have a special training and a special knowledge about the waste management, citizens know a lot about the waste problem and have a desirable practical behavior. Using the direct observation, meta-analytical method, and assessing Romanian legal norms and official statistics (2012, 2013, 2014), we emphasize that: a) the citizens’ involving has two aspects: one concerning the citizens’ common sense and the other related to the obligations led by the law; thus, the common people see the waste management as a commitment and as a civic duty; b) the generations coming up the year 2000 feel the waste management in a more powerful way than the former ones. Therefore, it can be said that there it is a waste management generation. The conclusion is that the waste management is not only a civic duty, but also an honest practice and a commitment in the current waste management.
