The book "Solid Waste Management in Zimbabwe" provides a comprehensive analysis of the methods for the collection and disposal of solid waste in Zimbabwe. The author, Whitehead Zikhali, highlights the challenges posed by urbanization as well as economic and social constraints that lead to significant environmental issues. These problems include overpopulation, inadequate waste disposal, and the contamination of water bodies by hazardous waste. Zikhali discusses the impacts of these practices on public health and the environment, calling for the introduction of policy strategies to improve waste management systems. The book also describes the various waste management practices across different sectors, including industry, institutions, households, and the commercial sector. An integrated waste management system is emphasized as the preferred solution.
