The Plastic Waste Primer: A Citizen's Guide

By Monica Sullivan and Jeffrey D Porro

Every day, the average American puts out some 4 1/2 pounds of trash--much of it some form of plastic. This book explores the history of U.S. plastic-waste management and describes steps the government and plastics industry have taken to address the problem. Citizen participation lies at the heart of this book, which tells citizens how to voice their concerns to government and industry. Photographs and diagrams.
