Responsible Solid Waste Management

2nd Edition

By: Karen Luken,Michelle Leonard,Ram Tewari,Raj Verma,Cynthia Mitchell,Marie Steinwachs

Solid Waste professionals know the ins-and-outs of their municipal solid waste program, but does their constituency? The newly revised Responsible Solid Waste Management Booklet is designed to bridge the gap between the Solid Waste professional and the people they serve. This booklet will help you educate both the general public and elected officials about the basics of responsible solid waste management. With colorful infographics and easy-to-grasp explanations, readers will come away with an understanding of solid waste management from beginning to end, from waste generation to landfill destination—and everything in between.

Rachel Carson

Challenging Authors

By: Karen F. Stein

Rachel Carson is the twentieth century's most significant environmentalist. Her books about the sea blend science and poetry as they invite readers to share her celebration of the ocean's wonders. Silent Spring, her graphic and compelling expose of the damage caused by the widespread aerial spraying of persistent organic pesticides such as DDT, opened our eyes to the interconnectedness of all living beings and the ecological systems we inhabit. Carson's work challenges our belief that science and technology can control the natural world, asks us to recognize our place in the world around us, and inspires us to treat the earth respectfully. She calls us to rekindle our sense of wonder at nature's power and beauty, and to tread lightly on the earth so that it will continue to sustain us and our descendants. This book guides readers on a journey through Carson's life and work, considers Carson's legacies, and points to some of the continuing challenges to sustainability. It provides a listing of resources for reading, learning, or teaching about the environment, about nature writing, and about Carson and the crucial issues she addressed.
