Abstract
|
:
|
Co-operative recycling practices have been increasingly used as a strategy to contest both the waste problem and urban poverty. By examining experiences from Brazil and other Latin American countries, this book examines what can be done to improve the environment and livelihoods for those involved in waste recycling.
