Plastic waste management is increasingly becoming a global challenge that has affected social-economic and environmental realities with significant bearing on environmental sustainability in Kampala's capital city. The population patterns and rapid urbanization have driven the production, distribution, and consumption of PET plastic packaged products and beverages like soda and water further causing plastic pollution on land and swamps surrounding Lake Victoria. This prompted the researcher to investigate ways of promoting sustainable management of domestic plastic waste to promote environmental health in the Banda community, Kampala's capital city. The general objective examined the ways to promote environmental health in the Banda community, Kampala city. The book provides a clue to green plastic waste management for all communities in Kampala city.
