This concentration, under the Environmental Science and
Technology major, looks at solid waste deposited on land and in water, sometimes
causing serious environmental problems. Major issues of waste management
include problems and benefits associated with landfilling garbage and with
the need to reduce the waste stream. Wastes may also be handled as a
resource. Major concerns when assessing waste management problems and solutions
are 1) environmental quality: managing waste to avoid polluting air or
soil/water resources or introducing toxics or pathogens into the food chain; 20
organic waste as energy resources: studying incineration as an alternative
to landfilling and organic wastes as a source of fertilizers. Recommended
