Synopsis

Consumption directly or indirectly drives various economic segments, influencing the generation of income and wealth. On the other hand, waste is generated on a large scale, representing significant environmental liabilities. Solid waste management needs planned solutions, from the primary generation of products to their disposal and final destination. Developing viable alternatives for efficient waste management requires multi- and interdisciplinary professional expertise. It is important to discuss ways of operationalising waste management systems, taking into account all the players involved and trying to reconcile their needs, possibilities, limitations and interests. Legislation, elements of the production chain and consumer engagement affect waste management programmes both qualitatively and quantitatively. This book discusses the socio-environmental impacts of consumption, while addressing how essential it is for waste management to articulate managerial, social, educational and environmental concepts from the perspective of sustainability. It is a useful tool for environmentalists, managers, teachers and students.
