Solid Waste Management

from Environmentally Speaking · host Dahvia Hylton

If there is one thing we all have in common it's waste. We use it, try to lose it, but we have to find a way to deal with it. With no sanitary landfills in the country, waste management in Jamaica becomes a huge issue for our homes and communities, even affecting livelihoods and worsening disasters. We talk to Theresa Rodriguez-Moodie, CEO of Jamaica Environment Trust and Senator Sophia Frazer-Binns, Opposition Spokesperson on Environment and Ecological Heritage about the impacts of these systems and our hopes for the future of waste management in Jamaica, beyond this election season.Want to participate in the discussions?
