There is no subject in the world more vital to the future and sustainability of  the planet earth for future generations than that of Waste Management and all  that encompasses. Animals produce organic waste only. Human beings, in their ignorance  and lack of foresight, have now created so much inorganic waste that the whole  planet is suffering from pollution in the air, in the rivers and oceans of the  world as well as on the land masses. This book deals intensively with every aspect of Organic and Inorganic Waste Management  and explains how each type of waste must be correctly dealt with if mankind is  to decrease the outbreak of disease, thereby ensuring that all inhabitants of  the planet earth have a healthy future. The book also emphasizes the responsibility  and steps that each individual must take in every country of the world if we are  to return mother earth to her former glory in the 21st century.
