This book aimed to diagnose the current process of management of solid urban waste in the municipality of Pombal - PB, and propose the management of the same in a more appropriate way in the face of local conditions.The method of diagnosing was based on a bibliographic survey, interview to the competent body and the application of questionnaires to the population, in all neighborhoods of the municipality. With the result of this study it was noticeable that the majority of the population needs to be informed about environmental issues, so that in this way they properly manage their waste. The municipal government is already taking some steps to reduce the impacts generated by the lack of proper management of its waste, but some points still need to be taken into account, such as working mainly to raise awareness of the population.
