摘要: This paper summarizes research into waste management activities and carbon emissions from territories in sub-Saharan Africa with the main objective of quantifying emission reductions (ERs) that can be gained through viable improvements to Africa. It demonstrates data on is poor generally inadequate for prediction models. The shows amount produced its composition are linked national Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Waste production per person around half developed countries a mean 230 kg/hd/yr. Sub-Saharan produce biogenic content 56% (+/-25%), which approximately 40% greater than countries. disposed uncontrolled dumps large amounts methane gas. Greenhouse gas (GHG) will rise increasing urbanization only controlled funding mechanisms
