Ringkasan
In this clear and engaging book, Richard Porter explores how economic tools can help tackle waste management challenges, balancing real-world decisions with the reality that a zero-risk environment isn’t possible. He uses examples like landfills, incineration, recycling, and hazardous waste to show the costs and trade-offs of different policies, including international waste trade and Superfund cleanups. Porter encourages open-minded, practical approaches to policy, making the topic accessible for students, policymakers, and curious readers alike.
