More about the book

Focusing on the underlying causes of the global waste crisis, the book critiques current waste policies and emphasizes the need for significant change in consumer-driven economies. It combines clear writing with thorough empirical and theoretical research to explore how everyday consumption contributes to increasing waste. The conclusion offers policy recommendations aimed at integrating waste management into broader discussions on decarbonization, advocating for a proactive approach rather than merely addressing waste as an end-of-pipe issue.
