Book excerpt: An ethnographic and community-engaged study of the class, caste, and gender politics of environmental mobilizations around Bengaluru, India’s discards. In Recycling Class, Manisha Anantharaman examines the ideas, flows, and relationships around unmanaged discards in Bengaluru, India, itself a massive environmental problem of planetary proportions, to help us understand what types of coalitions deliver social justice within sustainability initiatives. Recycling Class links middle-class, sustainable consumption with the environmental labor of the working poor to offer a relational analysis of urban sustainability politics and practice. Through ethnographic, community-based research, Anantharaman shows how diverse social groups adopt, contest, and modify neoliberal sustainability’s emphasis on market-based solutions, behavior change, and the aesthetic conflation of “clean” with “green.” Tracing garbage politics in Bengaluru for over a decade, Anantharaman argues that middle class “communal sustainability” efforts create new avenues for waste picker organizations to make claims for infrastructural inclusion. Coproduced “DIY infrastructures” serve as sites of citizenship and political negotiation, challenging the technocratic and growth-based logics of dominant sustainability policies. Yet, these configurations reproduce class, caste, and gender-based divisions of labor, demonstrating that inclusion without social reform can reproduce unjust distributions of risk and responsibility. Revealing the “win-win” fallacy of sustainability and foregrounding the agency of communities excluded from environmental policy, Recycling Class will appeal to scholars and activists alike who want to create a future with more transformative sustainability.

Book excerpt: The Business of Less rewrites the book on business and the environment. For the last thirty years, corporate sustainability was synonymous with the pursuit of ‘eco-efficiency’ and ‘win-win’ opportunities. The notion of ‘eco-efficiency’ gives us the illusion that we can achieve environmental sustainability without having to question the pursuit of never-ending economic growth. The ‘win-win’ paradigm is meant to assure us that companies can be protectors of the environment whilst also being profit maximizers. It is abundantly clear that the state of the natural environment has further degraded instead of improved. This book introduces a new paradigm designed to finally reconcile business and the environment. It is called ‘net green’, which means that in these times of ecological overshoot businesses need to reduce total environmental impact and not just improve the eco-efficiency of their products. The book also introduces and explains the four pollution prevention principles ‘again’, ‘different’, ‘less’, and ‘labor, not materials’. Together, ‘net green’ and the four pollution prevention principles provide a road map, for businesses and for every household, to a world in which human prosperity and a healthy environment are no longer at odds. The Business of Less is full of anecdotes and examples. This brings its material to life and makes the book not only very accessible, but also hugely applicable for everyone who is worried about the fate of our planet and is looking for answers.

Book excerpt: If you want to learn how to recycle, eliminate disposables, reduce waste & pollution, conserve resources, save energy, and protect the environment, then check out HowExpert Guide to Recycling. Have you ever been gaslighted? You know, grossly misled to believe something for the benefit of someone else? Unfortunately, we’ve all been victims of this for decades by big corporations, especially the oil industry. They have spent billions to convince us that climate change is our fault. That if we dispose of our trash the right way and lower our carbon footprint, we wouldn’t have the environmental problems we are now facing. Nothing could be further from the truth. This guide will show how we’ve been misled to believe this narrative in order to protect corporate profits and how changing our disposable habits, and fighting misinformation is the best thing we can do to beat climate change. Corporations have lied to keep us buying their products and distracted from the fact that waste and emissions are caused by how they do business. - Single-use plastics are a big money-maker for the fossil fuel industry. - They created the triangle symbol to make us think plastics will recycle, even though that can’t easily be done. - Manufacturers choose not to invest in recycled packaging and materials. - Virgin materials mined from Earth are cheaper and often subsidized. - Technology exists to eliminate most of the greenhouse gas emissions they cause. - It’s time to fight for the truth and take matters into our own hands. What we buy and how it’s made affects how well “reduce, reuse, and recycle” works. Using the power of our voices and wallets, we can make corporations change how they do business. - They answer to us, the people who buy their products and invest in their stock. - We can insist they take responsibility for the damage they cause. - We have the power to fight climate change at home and in our cities. - I don’t know about you, but I’m not ready to leave the health and well-being of my family in the hands of people who I hope will figure this mess out. - We all need to change for the better of our planet and our lives. - There are alternatives to buying disposable goods and packaging. - Buy durable goods and reusable packaging to save money and the planet. - Reduce and reuse packaging. First, eliminate plastic shopping bags. - We can do things differently to change our eating and buying habits. - A lot of trash comes with convenience dining, like packaged and fast foods. - Buying used products reduces wasted energy, materials, and water. - It’s time we use our buying power and our votes to change for the better. - Waste of anything - food, energy, goods - needs to be eliminated. - Elect representatives who put people before corporations. - Your voice can create change. Check out HowExpert Guide to Recycling to learn how to recycle, eliminate disposables, reduce waste & pollution, conserve resources, save energy, and protect the environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waste is something we all make every day but often pay little attention to. That's changing, and model programs around the globe show the many different ways a community can strive for, and achieve, zero-waste status. Scientist-turned-activist Paul Connett, a leading international figure in decades-long battles to fight pollution, has championed efforts to curtail overconsumption and keep industrial toxins out of our air and drinking water and bodies. But he’s best known around the world for leading efforts to help communities deal with their waste in sustainable ways—in other words, to eliminate and reuse waste rather than burn it or stow it away in landfills. In The Zero Waste Solution, Connett profiles the most successful zero-waste initiatives around the world, showing activists, planners, and entrepreneurs how to re-envision their community’s waste-handling process—by consuming less, turning organic waste into compost, recycling, reusing other waste, demanding nonwasteful product design, and creating jobs and bringing community members together in the process. The book also exposes the greenwashing behind renewed efforts to promote waste incinerators as safe, nontoxic energy suppliers, and gives detailed information on how communities can battle incineration projects that, even at their best, emit dangerous particles into the atmosphere, many of which remain unregulated or poorly regulated. An important toolkit for anyone interested in creating sustainable communities, generating secure local jobs, and keeping toxic alternatives at bay.
