Rubbish!: Dirt on our hands and crisis ahead

Mehr zum Buch

Rubbish! is an examination of the problem of waste—domestic and industrial—in the UK and elsewhere. Challenging and controversial, this is a rigorous examination of the problem of waste worldwide and the efficacy of the public and private initiatives designed to forestall a crisis fast ballooning into catastrophe. This is an investigation of the looming problem of waste in the 21st century—our fridge mountain; our crumbling sewers; trading waste; packaging waste; the enormity of our industrial waste; spam emails and new forms of waste; and the horrors of incineration. It is an attempt to find a blueprint for our survival, and to examine the way our lives may have to change.
