Source: Europeanceo, July 28, 2017:- Since the dawn of the first
industrial revolution, humans have plundered the planet at an increasing rate.
Decades of excessive consumption have created an enormous quantity of global
waste, and we are rapidly running out of room in which to store it. Landfills

climate change agenda.
