Abstract:

Food waste is one of the most abundant materials contributing to landfills in the United States. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates 96% of uneaten food ends up in landfills. Food and other organic wastes generate potent greenhouse gases in the atmosphere precipitating global climate change. College campus cafeterias generate a large amount of food waste and some universities are making efforts to capture and compost food waste. The purpose of this study was to measure the relationship between participation in a university composting program and students’ environmental attitudes

Abstract:

The high burden of final waste management causes pollution due to the low contribution of prevention at the source. The composition of Indonesia's food waste reaches 40.62%. Proper food waste management has become a challenge because the habit of segregation at the household level is still low. Home-composting is an option for management from sources with technology that is easy to operate, but its use still needs to be improved. This study looks at the factors influencing people's behaviour in composting-based household food waste management. The objective of this study is to analyze the vari

Specifically, it aimed at the determining of the types of wastes generated, determined the existing solid waste management methods employed by the residents in the area, and examined the factors that influenced

Abstract:

Climate change hinders economic growth across the globe, whereas green products and/or the adoption of green practices can effectively mitigate the deteriorating conditions of climate. A large proportion of the world population is living in remote areas with low income, and they should be included in the mitigation efforts to reduce the damaging effects of climate change. Therefore, this study intends to examine the intentions and behaviors towards green composting among low-income rural households to generate income, improve agricultural productivity, and reduce dependency on chemical fertili

Environmental education addresses the most common and current environmental problems as they could lead to a serious ecological misbalance on Earth. One of them is associated with a huge amount of waste, the need for sustainable management and recovery. For this reason, the topic of sustainable waste management needs to be included in the process of environmental education, to be based on an interdisciplinary approach, to start from an early age and be embedded not only in school curricula but also in extra-curricular activities, to be conducted systematically and methodologically provided.&#x
