The present research analyzes the correlation between environmental pollution and problems derived from inadequate solid waste management in the Ventanilla-2024 region. A study was carried out to explore the existing correlations, using a structured questionnaire of closed questions and answers to systematically collect data. In addition, a statistical analysis, including Spearman’s correlation coefficient, was applied to validate the hypotheses put forward. The results indicate that there is a statistically significant correlation between environmental pollution and the adverse effects generated by waste accumulation (p=0.000), with a Spearman’s rho value that reinforces the strength of this relationship. Critical factors such as public health, air quality, ecosystem integrity and socioeconomic development are closely linked to the impact caused by solid waste. The data obtained reveal that pollution and poor waste management are intrinsically linked in Ventanilla, Peru. Therefore, it is imperative to implement a comprehensive plan to optimize the processes of waste collection, transportation and disposal, with the objective of minimizing pollution and promoting practices that protect the environment.
