Constraints to Organized Recycling in Developing Countries
ISBN: 9783838360645 / Angielski / Miękka / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The continued growth of waste generation rates and the general concern of its impact on the natural environment have resulted in a search for solutions to contain the problem before it spirals out of control. One such solution is organized recycling, whereby municipalities require waste generators to set aside post-consumer materials for collection and delivery to the markets. This book, thereby identifies possible constraints and opportunities of organized recycling in developing countries using Gaborone, Botswana as a case study. It identifies major constraints to organized recycling as...
