This book offers a comprehensive look at the challenges and potential solutions for urban waste management, emphasizing the urgent need to move away from landfills.
Did you know that current consumption patterns and economic systems often prioritize production over waste reduction, exacerbating the problem?
The book analyzes recycling programs to determine successes and failures, while also exploring waste reduction and reuse initiatives.

The book argues for a shift towards a circular economy, prioritizing waste reduction, reuse, and recycling.
This approach requires integrating strategies, technological innovation, and policy changes to mitigate environmental and social consequences.
The book begins by outlining the global landscape of urban waste, then it dissects the complexities of recycling systems.
Later chapters explore waste reduction strategies and conclude with an analysis of integrated waste management systems, using real-world case studies.
