Description
We live on a rich, colourful and diverse planet. Whether we care or not, understand or don’t - our everyday actions have far-reaching consequences.
Know All About: Reduce Reuse Recycle is a fresh attempt to engage you in a global problem. The book is informative and meant to help lay persons to come to grips with an all too familiar phenomenon – garbage.
The book traces the history of waste and its generation - from the earliest civilisations till today - and the various efforts to find solutions. It is no technical treatise but told in a simple way. It has information, guidelines and tips on how you can help to reduce the problem that at times seems to be overwhelming us.
