Project Details
Description
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) presents a significant global environmental pressure. It is more challenging in overpopulated cities in Mexico where landfill sites have reached their capacity and MSW is either burned or disposed of in uncontrolled dumping sites, threatening water, air and human health. This project aims to transform improper waste management to reduce environmental impact of developing cities and improve living conditions for their people. The No-WasteR (zero waste) cities project aims to frame a solution to MSW.
