• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Due to rapid urbanization in metropolitan and municipalities including Ga-West, waste management remains the greatest challenge that attracts the attention of the concerned authorities and stakeholders. Farvacque-Vitkovic, et.al (2008) argues that the current rapid and largely frenzied urban growth is stressing capacity to efficiently deliver services and infrastructure and is resulting in urban sprawl and inefficient use of land. The visual sight of devastation in the urban areas in Ghana, serves to portray the physical problems that are characterized with the manner of urban development in this country (Okonkwo 2014). Major concerns have been given to the analysis of environmental problems couple of fast growing urban centers in the developing countries like Ghana. Urbanization influences rapid population growth and high consumption of goods, which culminate into production of large volumes of waste in our cities and towns. The increasing volume of garbage being generated wouldnot be a problem if rubbish was viewed as a matter. In connection to the study area, issues related to waste management have provoked a lot of empirical and theoretical information.
