Description du livre
In a world where waste accumulates faster than solutions, Living Without Waste : Mission Impossible ? exposes the scale of the crisis. Every year, more than one billion tonnes of food are wasted, 400 million tonnes of plastic end up in the environment and electronic waste is booming. Drawing on recent data and concrete cases (deposit systems in Ireland, zero waste European cities, community initiatives), the book unpacks the root causes - linear production models, fast fashion, insufficient policies - and sets out the levers for action : source reduction, circular economy, extended producer responsibility. You will discover how cities reduce landfill by 20 %, how deposits achieve 80 % recycling and how each of us can act by buying less and reusing more. This mini book offers a realistic vision : zero waste is not a utopia but a demanding trajectory. It is aimed at all environmentally minded people, public decision makers and businesses wanting to engage in the transition. Publisher : Five Minutes - Collection : PLANÈTE AVENIR.
