Abstract:

Despite laws against dumping and littering, the North Carolina countryside is being polluted by a proliferation of trash. In many cases, the trash dumps exist because there is no provision in the community for garbage and trash collection and nowhere else to dispose of it. This article discusses the problem and efforts to build sanitary landfills.
