Abstract

The Zero Waste International Alliance was formed to promote positive alternatives to landfill and incineration and to raise community awareness of the social and economic benefits to be gained when wasted materials are regarded as resources which can create both employment and business opportunities. One of the primary goals of organizing the Zero Waste International Alliance in 2002 was to establish standards to guide the development of Zero Waste in the world. In this article we present the Zero Waste Definition, the Zero Waste Declaration and the Zero Waste Hierarchy.
