Zero Waste: the only sustainable approach to waste management

I've always been very sensible about environmental issues and sustainable development. I'm really convinced that our society can develop and improve without burning out all Earth resources.

I'm linking below the video of Paul Connett's conference on Zero Waste: a sustainable alternative to waste management.

Paul Connett is professor of Chemistry at the St. Lawrence University (NY - USA) and is very active in fighting incineration and landfills by promoting a different approach.

I've been pretty lucky to personally assist to the conference and I have to say that I really agree on the arguments of the Zero Waste approach.
