This paperback book is in good condition. The cover is in very good condition, apart from light fading on and near the spine. Internally the pages are in very good condition - clean, tight and unmarked. Altogether the book shows little sign of wear. This report shows how the structures of government and big business have influenced the direction of waste policy and explains why the UK has failed to make the leap towards intensive recycling. The author sets out a zero waste programme for the UK, which links the diversity and ingenuity of local community enterprises with smart government institutions and new markets for secondary materials. In particular, it demonstrates how a new approach to waste can create sustainable, 'green collar' jobs and play a vital part in local economic development. Overall, the book makes the case for a green industrial revolution, combining the leading edge of the knowledge economy with the enterprise and values of the environmental movement.
