An integrated social and natural sciences case study for the reuse of organic wastes as soil amendments

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Reusing organic waste materials, such as animal manure, as soil amendments reduces water and fertiliser demand, contributing to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. However, organic wastes may contain contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), posing potential ecosystem and human health risks. Despite the importance of this issue, there is a lack

Municipal Waste Management

Introduction to Environmental Management, 2021
Municipal waste management has emerged in the last two decades as one of the most critical European environmental policy fields regulated into detail through the acquis. As Romania had the least “goodness-of-fit” with the goals set in the acquis at the moment of accession, it required the highest number of provisional arrangements, the most significant
